Skull-face Bookseller Honda-san

Skull-face Bookseller Honda-san

A manga based around the real life adventures of Honda-san, who works in the manga section of a book store.

Love this series and the current anime adaptation. I was surprised how it wasn’t just funny but very informative about what happens behind the scenes in a book store. I somehow never thought that the bookstore themselves would be responsible for putting plastic wrappers on each individual copies.

The full series is available for free in Japanese on pixiv.and will be available in English from Yen Press soon. I highly suggest you check out the anime as well.
