During the past decades, Japan has become the shining star of Asia, with its noteworthy achievements in the fields of science, technology, medicine, quality of life, and many others. Yet, while there are a great number of rich and successful Japanese people, there are even more of those engaged in a furious struggle for something as simple as earning to cover their day-to-day living expenses; all the while battling dangerous and money-consuming addictions such as gambling and alcoholism. What would these poor and not-so people do when they require the money to fulfill their never-ending desires, the desires that are part and parcel of being human? Just how miserable and dangerous might their lives become were they to fall into traps laid by *yamikin*, the loan sharks of the Japanese financial world's dark side, whose only goal is to ensnare such weak-willed souls? Adapted into film and a J-Drama. --- - **Won the 56th Shogakukan Manga Award for General Manga in 2011** - **Won the 23rd Japan Media Arts Festival Social Impact Award in 2020**

Ichabod is a young boy trying to find his biological father. This pursuit isn't made any easier by his tendency to get into trouble with the law. To top things off, his parents are just downright weird: Ichabod was raised by a lesbian couple. Thank god he meets Kirico, who is anything but ordinary. A very peculiar and interesting manga from the nineties, with some serious topics from psychology and society and unique characters. Tell me if you would like me to the translate more chapters (although, unfortunately, these are far less interesting than the first chapter, which just has something to it). A manga which traumatised me and my little brother when we first read it back in the early 2000s, but also made me think alot, even to this very day. RIP Hiroyuki Shoji. For this scanlation I used the German translation that was made by Burkhard Höfler and released in Manga Power, a monthly manga compendium that came out in Germany in the early 2000s. Sadly, I don't have enough experience to know if I have chosen the right format.
