Back to EpisodesEpisode 90 - The Climber by Shin-ichi Sakamoto, Yoshio Nabeta & Hiroshi Takano
Description
Buntarō Mori transfers to a new school in the hopes of being left alone... Only for a school bully to send his life down an unexpected path: a new passion for solo climbing! Mori, a gloomy loner, soon opens up under the watchful eye of his teacher, Oonishi and the students form a climbing club... But after a climbing trip gone wrong, Mori's life starts to catch up with him... Maybe this is one climb he must face alone!
This week, Mat is joined once again by Georgie (aka Mainly.Manga) to discuss The Climber by Shin-ichi Sakamoto, Yoshio Nabeta & Hiroshi Takano. We discuss not only the book's high-highs, but it's interesting publishing history, Sakamoto's other works and the author's own journey from a young Mangaka to almost retiring from Manga altogether before the success of this work!
