What do you do when a team of evil, alien wrestlers threaten the Earth?
Organise a team of GOOD super-powered wrestlers, of course!
Kinniku Mantaro, the son of legendary wrestler Kinnikuman, rockets to Earth and finds an evil wrestling gang called the DMP tearing the place apart. The punks on the DMP are the weirdest, nastiest, and most outlandishly powerful musclebound freaks the galaxy has ever known.
Mantaro's only hope: form a team that's even wilder. Lazy and cowardly, Mantaro sure doesn't look like the universe's last great hope, but when something upsets him - like, say, EVIL - he busts out in muscles just like his old man! The only possible result is earthshaking, body-slamming, ultimate-powered action that sends our entire planet sailing over the top rope!

The story of a girl called Ichiko, who lives alone in a forest. Each chapter features a dish or meal scavenged or harvested from Ichiko's surroundings in rural Komori ("little forest"). While there are no wild flights of fancy as in Witches or Hanashippanashi, the organic linework and majesty of nature featured within tap into that same source of magic. Little Forest is a very acquired taste on its own, but just another piece of the stunning tapestry Daisuke Igarashi continues to weave today.
A collection of bizarre, twisted one-shots with horror, supernatural and psychological themes.
