Description
From VIZ Media:
Follow this turtle down a Zen path through the wondrous natural world of Japan. Witness his simple life on a tea farm with his young master. Meet other animals such as his neighbor, the Sea Dog, an owl, a family of boars and, of course, more turtles! Come see how much better life can be when you’re a turtle.
Kame Odoru (actually, not Cameo Doll xD) or "I am a Turtle" is a 4-panel manga by Tamura Temari. It's published online over at SigIkki, Viz's web manga portal place, and it only has four chapters out at the moment- I hope the series garners more attention and maybe additional chapters can be released, and maybe it'll even make it to print!
The turtle in the story really just spends his time leisurely reflecting on life, being a turtle, why humans think cute things are fuzzy...etc. There's no real...point to the series other than that- just a bunch of little shorts about Turtle being a turtle. It's a good way to pass a little time- it's not bad, of course, I think the art's actually quite nice for a 4-panel manga! It's a little silly, but all in all, not a bad comic at all.
I've read the first two chapters of this manga via the Viz Ikki site, and it's fantastic. It's a little bit satirical, a little bit tongue-in-cheek, but basically just fun. I don't think it's meant to be a Srs Bsns type of manga at all, which means it works out perfectly. I really hope that Viz decides to publish the entire series, instead of hosting just a few chapters online. This is one series that I would definitely purchase for my personal collection.
