My quest to find some new manga continues, and this time hits an iceberg. And sadly, not a big bouncy iceberg.
Akito wants to write manga, so he convinces Moritaka, a classmate who can draw, to create a manga with him. Conveniently, Moritaka’s uncle was a manga artist and writer who worked himself to death. And Moritaka’s crush wants to be a manga voice artists. Akito even manages to arrange a situation that leads to the young lady promising to marry Moritaka when they have both successfully achieved their dream. This book chronicles their initial efforts to create a manga they can sell to a publisher.
This book proves the adage "there is a manga for everything". This manga is about making manga. Highly meta, this could have been brilliant. Instead it is dull as dishwater as the boys conduct research on what is popular in manga and come up with their answer to that. And so I put it aside, which I rarely do.
