Fujimi no Tokkouhei

A biographical manga about the World War II suicide bomber Tomoji Sasaki who was ordered to fly 9 suicide missions and returned each time, disobeying his orders to die.

This is one of those crazy stories that make you question if it’s actually true. The late Tomoji Sasaki was interviewed by writer Shouji Koukami who penned a biography that became a best seller in Japan. This manga adaptation by Naoki Azuma started recently in Young Magazine and I’m excited to read more!
