That Time the Manga Editor Started a New Life in the Countryside

That Time the Manga Editor Started a New Life in the Countryside is a Manga originally published in Young Magazine. Yohei "Kuma" Sakuma, a disillusioned manga editor, is fed up with his monotonous city life. In a moment of desperation, he formulates a plan to start anew in the countryside and live off the land. However, his wife, Miyu, remains oblivious to this life-altering decision, and Kuma's inexperience with agriculture is evident in his naive attempts to cultivate rice. The couple is thrust into a crash course in country living, encountering difficulties such as dilapidated houses, swarms of bugs, and grueling labor under the scorching sun.
