Description
In this story set in the early 1980s, a young man dreams of becoming a renowned comic writer in years to come. His name is HONOO Moyuru. He has no money, only a dream. Then, he feels overwhelmed by his lack of ability, and buys some sake, although he has no head or stomach for alcohol. This is a tortured elegy for any dashing young art student who spends his days careening around in burning ambition.
Note: Nominated for the 3rd Manga Taisho Award in 2010 and the 19th Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize in 2015. Won the 18th Japan Media Arts Festival Excellence Award in 2014.
