About this episode
If you've spent years thinking that the work of Mitsuru Adachi isn't for you because you have no interest in baseball, pull up a chair! This week on Manga Tak, I talk to designer and illustrator Bastian Najdek, to discuss Short Game! A collection of 5 short stories from one of Japan's masters of romance, that proves that while the book is about baseball, it also REALLY isn't!Join us as we take the field to discuss Adachi's beautiful compositions and writing, spend a little time in the outfield discussing badly dubbed Polish anime, before swinging for the fences and picking our favourite stories in the collection!---Show Notes---MangakaAkira ToriyamaRumiko Takahashi---MangaTouch by Mitsuru AdachiH2 by Mitsuru AdachiCross Game by Mitsuru AdachiShort Program by Mitsuru AdachiRanma 1/2 by Rumiko TakahashiDragon Ball by Akira ToriyamaH?e?l?l?o?
