Donald Onsen Monogatari

A manga about how Donald Duck, José Carioca, and Panchito Pistoles get sent from America to Japan for an internship at a hot spring resort.

This is another strange Disney/Kodansha collaboration that’s similar to Tono-sama to Stitch. The story just follows Donald and his buddies as they learn lessons in service while working at the Japanese resort. It’s inoffensive but also nothing stands out to make it interesting. While I do really like Meru Okano‘s take on Disney characters, I’d rather see them working on a different project.
