Nausicaa Valley of the wind - Hayao Miyazaki. I’m still surprised that people don’t know about the original comic. It’s so good! The movie only covers 1/3 of the comic so if you haven’t read it, your mind gonna be blown away 🤯 ( My perspective on movie changed afterwards )

鉛筆もやっぱり大好き。アナログもデジタルも楽しいぞ〜〜

14. Ristorante Paradiso - Natsume Ono. About daily restaurant life in Rome. I’ve been following her work for long time and her dry pen touch is just appealing and elegant. Also “GENTE“ ( ↑’s sequel ) “COPPERS” (🗽👮‍♂️) and “ACCA” ( anime is so gooood too ) is also my favorite 💖

15. Goodnight Pun Pun - Inio Asano. I don’t prefer dark stories but this one is exception. The author uses 3D modeling for the bg, the technique to do so and details is just so great. Perfect read when you want to feel more down or see fucked up people’s mind.

10. Genius Family Company - Tomoko Ninomiya. ( who did Nodame Cantabile ) another underrated comic of hers. About a gifted, petty and egocentric high schooler, intends to work in the high financial world but with his mom’s remarriage, his life turn into jeopardy 😂 It’s sooo good

30. Raise Wa Tanin Ga Ii (Hopefully we are strangers in next life) - Asuka Konishi. Been following her since the series was on pixiv. Story revolves around Yakuza leader and his arranged fiancé. Women power 💪Her previous book “Haru No Noroi” (Curse of Haru) is also super good ☺️

50. Classmates - Asumiko Nakamura. Classic yaoi series. This beautiful stories continues to “Graduate”, “Sora to Hara”, “O.B.”, then to recent “Blanc”. Her line works are just out of this world !🤯😳 I also love her “All about J” 🏳️‍🌈 series and “Chicken Club” ← graphic warning 🙈

こんな時代だけど資料は紙派

32. Skip to Loafer - Misaki Takamatsu. One of the best slice of life manga I have read this year. Won 3rd place in 2020 Manga Taisho Award🏆Story about smart country girl meeting new friends in Tokyo. With her pureness, unconsciously she makes her surroundings happy☺️I 💖Sosuke…

大分の義実家に毎月旦那の日常の写真を数十枚送っていたのですが、忙しくて今年まだ送っておらず。やっと写真をプリントアウトできたので手紙に添える言い訳漫画を描いている。

6. The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window - Yamashita Tomoko. Supernatural buddy mystery (+ slightly yaoish) Uhh but I mean I love all of her comics so it’s hard to choice ( HER, Butter!! is also great too )... She’s just so good with portraying human’s core feeling.
