Frankly it's nice for me to translate something with a little extra historical and social value once in awhile. :)<br /><br />@Anonymous - Sorry I didn't get to your comment earlier. Black Rain is a collection of 8 one shots connected by a theme, that theme being the atomic bomb and its survivors.Eien Ni Henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12071668731536980553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2262201176647789800.post-62834295828976719452012-12-27T10:16:53.473-08:002012-12-27T10:16:53.473-08:00This is a magnificent manga.

I'd never really connected the bombing with real people, and reading/seeing an eyewitness account was edifying. Barefoot Gen and Struck by Black Rain are dark, but necessarily so. I'm so glad to see Black Rain appearing in English. It would never be accessible otherwise. So thank you a thousand times for your hard work. I'm a dedicated fan now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2262201176647789800.post-1802297854630037692012-12-23T22:48:55.323-08:002012-12-23T22:48:55.323-08:00@ridojiri-

I read your review and really liked it, btw.<br /><br />Black Rain is definitely "highly myopic" and Nakazawa really does try to emotionally manipulate the reader, but I agree that the work still has merit. :)Eien Ni Henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12071668731536980553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2262201176647789800.post-41486800375139180832012-12-23T21:22:08.304-08:002012-12-23T21:22:08.304-08:00thanks!
