From Keiichi Arawi, the creator of hit series nichijou, comes a new slapstick comedy series about a penniless college student who moves to a town filled with bizarre people. This reckless girl will be the one who eventually sets the city in motion.
Nagumo and her friends decide to go camping. Wako Izumi has already gone out and bought everything they might need—the gear, the food, all of it—when she suddenly comes down with a cold…
Will they postpone the trip, or press on using everything she’s prepared and leave her behind?
After three years, that familiar “CITY” is finally back on the page—and on screen! The same people, the same chaos, yet brand-new stories are about to unfold. Enjoy the ride!
Keiichi Arawi (1977-) is a professional comic artist and illustrator. Originally from Gunma, Japan, he was raised in the city of Maebashi. By the time he was 19 he entered the world of comics drawing short stories for Media Factory's Comic Flapper (My Neighbor Seki, 7 Billion Needles). While his first series KazeMachi was short-lived it caught the attention of one of the bigger publishers in Japan, Kadokawa Publishing.
His short "Nichijou" won Kadokawa's 22nd ACE Award for New Artists and by November 2006 Nichijou was regularly serialized in Kadokawa's flagship magazine Shonen Ace. Nichijou has since then sold more than a million copies and has seen cartoon and video game adaptations.
"CITY is simply a marvel to look at, with the attention to detail from Midori's clutter-filled apartment to the tiniest of broken pieces of a statue our main protagonist dropped filled with such life and brilliance."-B3
