My Favorite Manga from 2023: Part 1

And now that the themes are over and done with, here are my general favorite reads from 2023:

夕暮れへ (Offshore Lightning), Saito Nazuna [Drawn & Quarterly, trans. Alexa Frank]

柔道部物語 (Judo-bu Monogatari), Makoto Kobayasho [Kodansha Bunko ver.]

ZERO, Taiyo Matsumoto [Shogakukan Bunko ver.]

Midori no Uta: Shuushuu Gunfuu/Lü Zhī Gē - Shōují Qún Fēng (緑の歌 - 収集群風 -/綠之歌 -收集群風-), Yan Gao

動物たち (Doubutsu-tachi), Panpanya

月館の殺人 (Tsukidate no Satsujin), Noriko Sasaki & Yukito Ayatsuji [Shogakukan Bunko ver]

I will skip the latter three titles as I already talked about them in earlier roundups, but let me once again say that they're very good and I enjoyed them so much.

I always seem to find a work that gets stuck in pre-order purgatory and in 2023 Offshore Lightning finally made it out. After Talk to My Back and The Sky is Blue With a Single Cloud I was really looking forward to seeing who Drawn & Quarterly had picked this time. Of course I wasn't disappointed (and surprised that it was a one-shot collection I had been half eyeing in Japanese for a while). Saito Nazuna delivers some poignant stories about families at a breaking point as well as life and death. I was personally very taken by In Captivity and House of Solitary Death, which are the more recent stories in the collection.

I got my sports manga fixes in this year too. First one I had hyped myself up for for years and the namesake of a previous favorite...the oft referenced in the Makoto Kobayashi-verse: Judo-bu Monogatari. When Sango Jugo (whose name is literally the kanji numerals 3 5 15) gets tricked into joining his school's low ranking Judo club. After surviving a brutal hazing ritual it would seem he's only sticking around out of spite, but after what seemed to be a fluke win could it be that he actually got a talent for this sport? Thus begins Jugo's 3 year journey as a high school Judo athlete. I already knew that Kobayashi is one of the best sequential artists in the game but I'm just blown away over and over by him andhis mastery of the comic format. Add the trademark outrageous visual comedy and the charming cast of characters; I rank it with Slam Dunk as one of the few manga that get physical reactions of true excitement and happiness out of me. (In fact, Makoto Kobayashi is named as one of Takehiko Inoue's influences)

I also finally read Matsumoto's ZERO which had intrigued me since the editor's afterword in Ping Pong that described the two works as related. And I don't know where to begin, blown away, entranced, had me thinking and wondering, absorbed in one sitting. The bunko edition also included extras from the 2018 edition like a editor's and author's retrospective, and a short comic written by the scriptwriter of Takemitsu Samurai, Issei Eifuku who was around for the development phase of ZERO.

Empereur du Japon #1 Junichi Nojo & Issei Eifuku Delcourt/Tonkam Pour l'instant on suit la jeunesse de Hirohito & son apprentissage auprès de personnes triées sur le volet. Un récit très linéaire, documenté, mais peut-être un peu trop scolaire pour être captivant. #LectureManga https://www.instagram.com/p/B3FTkBinyNO/?igshid=19y6s5pngcmwc

#BookReview from @okuta.otherside - Anyone read Evil Eater by Issei Eifuku and Kojino? 📚 This manga have 3 volumes in total and look at the covers! The covers are so simple and yet looks so beautiful! The story is about a project to give another life for the dead victims of some criminal cases like murder by exchange the soul of the murderer to re-life the victim. It's kind of reincarnation but the victim get the memory of his/her murder erased, and the exchange is only happen to the first victim also it must be the real murderer, if it the false judgment then there is nothing happen, the victim will stay dead. But the re-life victims have some "bugs" that can trigger monster inside them to coming out so there are a team that do tracking the bugs and "eat" the bugs. This manga sounds so dark and difficult to explain, isn't it?😂 But it's interesting to read ✨ #evileater #isseieifuku #kojino #manga #indonesianedition #漫画 #ElexMedia #gramedia #elexinstagram #booklover #bookaholic #buku #pecintabuku #bookstagram #booknerd #bookworm #goodreads #instabook #instagood #photooftheday #follow #followme #picoftheday #instadaily #instalike #bestofthedays http://ift.tt/2xcAX18
