City 9 by Keiichi Arawi

City 9 by Keiichi Arawi

From Keiichi Arawi, the creator of hit series nichijou, comes a new slapstick comedy series about a penniless college student who moves to a town filled with bizarre people. This reckless girl will be the one who eventually sets the city in motion.


The big race is over, and everything is back to "normal" in the CITY--as normal as it ever gets, anyway: Shia attempts to simultaneously take the advertising world by storm and annoy her way into Tatsuta Adatara's heart, the City Three Crows continue their ongoing quest for the perfect summer vacation, and Tatewaku, Matsuri, and Ecchan tackle the impossible challenge of finding a band name that isn't already taken.

Meanwhile, Nagumo's endless quest for cash takes her through various games of skill and chance: a watermelon seed-spitting contest, bobbing for gold bars at the summer festival, even the 7th Annual CITY Quiz Championship.
We've got spies, we've got love (or is it like?), we even have the perils of...THE BOUTIQUE?! We've got it all here in the CITY--where nothing is ever as normal as it seems.

Keiichi Arawi (1977-) is a skilled illustrator and comic artist. He started creating short stories for Media Factory's Comic Flapper (My Neighbor Seki, 7 Billion Needles) when he was 19 years old. While his first series, KazeMachi, was short-lived, it attracted the notice of Kadokawa Publishers, one of Japan's largest publishers. Nichijou, his short story, earned Kadokawa's 22nd ACE Award for Emerging Artists, and by November 2006, it was serialized in Kadokawa's flagship magazine Shonen Ace on a regular basis.

Nichijou has since sold over a million copies and been adapted into cartoons and video games. Guillermo del Toro chose it as one of the top comics from Japan today for Asahi News' SUGOI Japan project.
