Tokyo These Days, Vol. 2, Hardback Book

Tokyo These Days, Vol. 2 Hardback

Part of the Tokyo These Days series

Hardback

Description

The winner of multiple Eisner Awards, author Taiyo Matsumoto explores the relationships between a manga editor, manga creators, art, and the rhythm of life these days. After 30 years as a manga editor, Kazuo Shiozawa suddenly quits.

Although he feels early retirement is the only way to atone for his failures as an editor, the manga world isn’t done with him.

Shiozawa forges ahead with an independently published manga project.

But the manga creators around him are crumbling into chaos—Chosaku drinks himself into ever less productivity over worries about his career and family, a longtime creator can’t discern the difference between fiction and fantasy, and Aoki disappears rather than face the deadlines for his new hit series.

Sometimes, the simple pleasure of an apple is worth more than all the fame and toil of making manga.
