A massive cultural phenomenon, made even bigger by the hit anime based on it. To this day, "Ashita no Joe" remains one of the most important manga of all time, and now it will finally see the light of day in English for the first time!
Description
After a stunning clash between Rikiishi's finely honed skill and Joe's raw, unbridled gift, both are released from Toko Reformatory--but Joe has a lot of catching up to do. His rival is already making waves on the pro circuit, and while Rikiishi has expensive, state-of-the-art training facilities, Joe has nothing but a makeshift gym down by the river. Danpei inspires him to dream of walking back across the so-called bridge of tears and into the limelight, but when the old pug's reputation catches up with him, it looks like Joe might be shut out of the pros forever...
Language
In English, translated from Japanese.
