review:
'The Way of the Househusband, Vol. 1' by Kousuke Oono with translation by Sheldon Drzka is a manga about an unusual man who is content to cook and clean.

This manga is the story of what happens when a feared ex-yakuza nicknamed The Immortal Dragon gives it all up to become a househusband. There are random people who want to kill him, and all he wants is to shop for bargains. There is the honorable sending out of the Roomba to clean. There are cute cookies and bento boxes to be made as well as the funny aprons he wears over his scary yakuza clothing.

I thought this manga was hilarious. The setups are great and everything feels like a really fresh take on the fish out of water comedy. The art is great too. I'd definitely love to read more in this series.

I received a review copy of this manga from VIZ Media and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this manga.
