SEAN: Easiest pick I’ve made in ages. It’s Ashita no Joe: Fighting for Tomorrow. A truly iconic manga, essential for any shonen sports fan… or manga fan in general.
MICHELLE: And as a shonen sports fan, how on Earth could I resist? Ashita no Joe for me, as well.
KATE: I second Sean’s pick! When I first started reviewing manga in the aughts—the golden age of Naruto, InuYasha and Bleach—I never imagined that anyone would be interested in publishing older titles like Ashita no Joe. It’s great to see Kodansha rolling out the red carpet for this shonen classic.
ANNA: Ashita no Joe! I’m excited to finally be able to read this!
ASH: Who am I to break the streak? It’s Ashita no Joe for me, too! I was so surprised and incredibly happy when I learned this was being licensed.
