Although Taiyo Matsumoto desired a career as a professional soccerplayer at first, he eventually chose an artistic profession. He gained his first success through the Comic Open contest, held by the magazine Comic Morning, which allowed him to make his professional debut. He started out with 'Straight', a comic about basketball players. Sports remain his main influence in his next comic, 'Zéro', a story about a boxer.
In 1993 Matsumoto started the 'Tekkonkinkurito' trilogy in Big Spirits magazine, which was even adapted to a theatre play. He continued his comics exploits with several short stories for the Comic Aré magazine, which are collected in the book 'Nihon no Kyodai'. Again for Big Spirits, Taiyo Matsumoto started the series 'Ping Pong' in 1996. 'Number Five' followed in 2001, published by Shogakukan.

This manga is a slice-of-life story — an onion slice, because my eyes were wet and red.

Sunny is not a manga based on fantasy. Sunny is 100% grounded in real life. This could be easily a biography of real people. That is how real it is.
We follow the lives of a group of orphans. We get to know their personalities, their feelings and their dreams.
There isn't a main plot connecting all chapters. In each chapter we follow one or more orphans during events of their lives.
The narrative is very enticing. I never felt bored. At the end of each chapter I just wanted to move into the next one.
The art is not amazing but it suites the story perfectly.
If you don't like to read stories about normal life experiences, you probably won't enjoy this but if you enjoy a good well written story regardless of the content, you'll enjoy Sunny.
If you're an orphan or if you grew without your parents present in your life for one reason or another, you'll probably enjoy Sunny even more.

Beautiful introduction to the series. Expect tears. Taiyo is THE master of portraying complex emotional struggles in his characters and plot.
