The previousCoverageBut is one book that I am allowed to recommend. Perhaps some people have read the author Hiroaki Samura's masterpiece the "Blade of the Immortal". Prior, Takashi Miike's director, announced to be live-action in 2017 by Takuya Kimura starring, became a hot topic. Such Hiroaki Samura's latest work. It is a work that fun of conversation drama that skip in full throttle from the beginning is by far the group. You are fascinated because the picture is also good, is rare also are dealing the industry's radio. It is the best one in my 2015 first half. In fact, in Volume 1, it does not start moving the story still big.

This cartoon is, in my, is the number one of the work this year. Hideki Arai, sadness for the society up to now, but is a cartoonist who had been represented to just whether even this anger, to sublimate them from much of last year, it began to paint a more warm the world. Was awarded the comic HONZ ultra-new Grand Prix of 2014 and "Kuya Shonin there were" actually anyone who OkaAkira輔 who are making alone the building of "Arimasutonbiru (often miss some ton building)" in Tamachi painted one - shot works "future !! - 200 years of OkaAkira輔 -" and you hit it. New series that follows them is this work. In 2011, beginning the story in reality exactly the same setting that 3.11 has occurred, then, expansion of tree of giant beans with a pollution force to come grows all over the world are drawn. Appearance of human beings to live together with the tree of beans this is a formidable presence, we are exactly synchronous with the figure of Japan after the nuclear power plant. Huge theme to ask the way of as human beings, have been drawn through the home drama elements that conflict structure of adolescent daughter and father. "Nagisa" of the title is the name of the main character, is also a tribute of Nevil Shute, which was published 50 years ago SF novel "by Nagisa". His work also, that all over the world in the radioactive contamination is no longer able to live a human only in the southern hemisphere is contaminated, I draw the end of mankind.

Cartoon world of 2015, more and more progress in Web of, new talent and expression through the net has been more and more appeared. "Final Re: Quest - Final request -" is also one of them. This work, the work of a smile still image transmission, presented in such a way that with sound effects of picture-story show, has been in book form. As can be seen and get a look at the book, in full color, surprisingly, all I draw a cartoon in the dot picture. I do not know it takes many hours to draw one frame. Of course, it is the first attempt in the comics world. Book binding even though elaborate, when you open the page, has been making, such as the NES manual. NES generation is, of course, I think that it is unbearable work in a wide range of games like layer. Story is also interesting, the stage is, the world of after becoming peace defeat the demon king in the RPG. There, why characters who begins to move with the ego. In 2015 first half, the first volume manga "dungeon rice" which became a hot topic as a work is also seems that the best-selling, is also interesting point of interest on the side that was not drawn until now. In "Dungeon rice" is also world of RPG, I people talk to infiltrate the dungeon treasure box is asleep, usually, RPG is a scene in which a person is to eat has been cut. There a dare feature, because what is also no dungeon, by, for example, a delicious cook monsters that come out in, for example, has drawn eat figure in the dungeon. Depicting the world of the post-game clear "Final Re: Quest" it also has a similar fun.
