Ousama Ranking
A manga about young prince Boji who despite being born weak and deaf, wants to become a king to enter into the world ranking of kings.
We’ve discussed this on a previous episode.
I absolutely love this manga. Sousuke Touno originally wanted to be a storybook artist and it shows. There’s such a simple design for the characters and the world that is very familiar to a fairy tale. I also love how so many characters are the exact opposite of what you would find in a fairy tale. One of the sweetest relationships is between prince Boji and his stepmother Healing. The anime will be starting fall 2021 and I’m really excited to see it!
Available in Japanese on Manga Back.
