A loving mother, nice classmates, well-planned days… This was the daily life of Iori Shijima, an ordinary high school that aspired only to a normal life. But this was without counting on the sudden appearance in the sky of the "Atrail", a mysterious cubic object that will upset his universe until then without turbulence. Caught in a storm of revelations about himself, Iori will have to face challenges that are beyond him and save the destiny of humanity… (Doki-doki)
Not to be confused with the late Jirō TANIGUCHI, Gorō Taniguchi is a screenwriter who has nothing to envy to the one who left us last year. Indeed, he has distinguished himself many times at the heart of Japanese animation, working on the scenario of several series, some of which have broken through even in the West, such as Gun Sword, Planetes, Junketsu no Maria or Code Geass.
The artist arrives today in France with his first manga, which is not part of a license, which he developed in anime with Atrail. Accompanied by the mysterious HIGUCHI Akihiko, still unknown in France, the Doki-Doki edition gives us an appointment from January 9, 2019 for the first volume of this work of science fiction. Published in Kadokawa Shoten's pre-publication magazine Comic Walker, this series began in 2015 in Japan, ending in 6 bound volumes.
A new year that may take an apocalyptic turn with the editions Doki-Doki and Atrail…
