Main theme: The Box of 5 Centuries
On this episode, we're featuring the manga "The Box of 5 Centuries". This manga became famous back in October 2017 after being featured on "Kono Manga ga Sugoi! Web Edition". It was particularly well-received in Asia and is even scheduled for localized release in Taiwan. It's the debut work of its author Ikumi Miyao who is from Hiroshima city, and the manga's setting was themed on her home town where she was born and raised. The author's grandmother survived the Atomic bombing of Hiroshima because she happened to be out of the city on the day, and as a child, Miyao often used to hear say "If I hadn't been out of the city that day, you wouldn't have been born". Even a mere trivial event can greatly change the future. Having been inspired by her grandmother's words, she came up with the concept for "The Box of 5 Centuries". Coming up, we'll be exploring the world of "The Box of 5 Centuries" and its story that was inspired by the words of the author's grandmother!
