Ichinichi Gaishutsuroku Hanchou
A lighthearted spin-off of Gambling Apocalypse: KAIJI that follows foreman Ootsuki as he leisurely enjoys his 1-day vacations from the underground debt labor camp.
Compared to Mr. TONEGAWA: Middle Management Blues this spin-off is not purely a comedy. Sometimes the foreman just has a nice time eating good meals and other times he gets into some wacky adventures with his two underlings. I personally like this spin-off more.
My favorite part of this manga is that whenever the series needs to take a short hiatus from it’s serialization in Young Magazine, there’s a page that shows the foreman’s saving are depleted along with the message “We need to save up more money before we can go on another 1-day vacation!”
