The Town of Evening Calm, the Country of Cherry Blossoms

original 夕凪の街桜の国

・”The Story of Women in the City of Hiroshima, Where the Atomic Bomb Was Dropped” ・”They have no choice but to live their youth while being emotionally isolated” ・”The suffering doesn’t end for both the survivors and those who passed away” ・”Is the logic of ‘If the atomic bomb wasn’t used, there would have been more casualties in both Japan and the United States’ appropriate? Is it truly just?”

・原子爆弾の落ちた街ヒロシマの女性の物語・彼女達は精神的に隔離されながら青春を生きるしかありません・生き残った人も、亡くなった人も、苦しみは終わらない・「原子爆弾を使わなかったら、もっと日本にも米国にも被害が出ていた」は適切な論理なのか。本当に正義なのか。

I was born in Japan and have been reading manga since I was very young. Before I knew it, I had already crossed 40 years of age. I aspire to share Japanese manga culture with the world in English from Hokkaido, the northernmost region of Japan. While I believe I have a decent collection of books, after getting married in 2019 and having children, space became an issue. Consequently, I had to dispose of all the 'long-standing, major works'. However, this left my bookshelf with interesting, lesser-known manga that are too obscure to be digitized, creating a very charming and unique collection. I want the world to understand that manga is not just about the popular titles that have been translated into English. I hope people around the world can enjoy the profound depth of manga culture. To support this endeavor, I need some capital, so I have included advertisements. I hope for your understanding in this matter. I want to create a manga library that people from overseas can easily visit when they come to Hokkaido.
