Ichi-f by Kazuto Tatsuta

An insider's look at the Fukushima Nuclear disaster and its devastating consequences.
"This is a very human look at a sensationalized issue, and Tatsuta’s approach is level headed and informative without being dry" -Otaku USA

"An emotional and personal work... that should have appeal beyond the normal manga reader crowd." -Anime News Network

"A tremendous amount of work from the translator Stephen Paul and others at Kodansha has gone into Ichi-F in an effort to make the manga as accurate and as widely accessible as possible... What in many ways started out as just a job ends with Tatsuta caring deeply about and for his colleagues at the plant, the locals and residents of Fukushima, and the area itself... an individual perspective critical to the larger context." -Experiments in Manga
After participating in the Fukushima nuclear cleanup effort for six months in 2012, before being forced to quit due to radiation exposure, Kazuto Tatsuta decided to draw a graphic memoir about his experiences to give the public a look inside the secretive effort. Ichi-F started as a short amateur manga, which was extended into a longer work after winning the Morning Manga Open Award. It is his professional manga debut.
