SYNOPSIS
Ed Chavez from Vertical Inc. joins us on the latest episode of Manga Corner. He talks about Princess Knight, The Drops of God and No Longer Human. We later discuss the importance of same day manga releases and the end of the world.
PRINCESS KNIGHT
>Princess Knight is a fast-paced tale of a heroic princess who can beat any man at fencing, yet is delicate and graceful enough to catch the eye of Prince Charming. Filled with narrow escapes, treacherous courtiers, dashing pirates, meddlesome witches, magical transformations and cinema-worthy displays of derring-do, you’ll be swept right along as Sapphire tackles one challenge after another. Princess Knight mixes themes of gender identity and politics with classic shojo-style illustration to create a charming proto-feminist masterpiece by the “Godfather of Manga” that has captured the hearts of generations of readers. – Vertical Inc.

When world-renowned wine critic Kanzaki passes away, his will reveals that his fortune of a wine collection isn’t bequeathed as a matter of course to his only son, who in a snub went to work sales at a beer company. To come into the inheritance, Shizuku must identify—in competition with a stellar young critic—twelve heaven-sent wines whose impressions the will describes in flowing terms… – Vertical Inc.

NO LONGER HUMAN
A decadent novelist’s autobiographical masterpiece, a perennial bestseller in Japan with fans all over the world, retold by a maverick manga author! In the first such attempt, the drawings within are not “flipped”—a left-to-right version was prepared simultaneously by the artist with Western translations in mind. Meet Yozo Oba, a youth who believes survival means clowning. – Vertical Inc.
