Sumidagawa Shinjuu

In this poignant and powerful manga, two misfits form an unlikely bond. Kumada, a former rakugo artiste turned gang member, and Ogawa, a simple-minded but endearing youth, seek their place in life and love. Through their shared struggles, they navigate the complexities of human emotion and connection, exploring themes of sorrow, poetry, and the nature of love in three standalone tales that transport the reader to the early Shouwa era and beyond.
