Miyamoto Dai

Side notes: This manga is my favorite this time.XDDD It's easy to see why it has been nominated for Manga taisho twice, in separate years. Just like Golden kamui it has the "special feel" in it, and good characters. It's not "pretty" drawn and has its totally personal crafty way to capture images on the paper to tell the story. I'm unable to say is B.E.C.K. better than this or vice versa. I really like them both... and should have put them together on display today... But maybe I'll add Beck next time... and Sakamichi no Apollon (I noted Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso earlier here.)^-^b
