review:
'City, 1' by Keiichi Arawi is the first manga I've read that had me laughing out loud at the strange characters and situations.
It all takes place in a small section of a city. Midori Nagumo owes money for her rent and her elderly landlady is after her. This sets in motion a chain of events including a restaurant punch card, a friendly policeman, a boy wearing a lucky miniskirt, and a surprising martial arts master. When it's all done, I met quite a few characters and lives in this little section of the city.
I loved the humor and the art style of this manga. A lot of times, the humor can kind of go over my head, but the ludicrous situations and the weight put on normal things made for some great comic setups.
I received a review copy of this manga from Vertical Comics, Kodansha Comics, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
