Hyakushou Kizoku
Renowned manga artist Hiromu Arakawa has an unusual backstory: she used to work on a farm in Hokkaido, the food warehouse of Japan, for seven years! To her editor, Ishii, harvesting produce and milking cows are foreign concepts; but as the daughter of two multigenerational farmers, Arakawa is there to explain the challenging yet noble job of being a farmer. Before becoming a manga artist, Hiromu Arakawa spent seven years working as a farmer in Hokkaido. Well acquainted with the many emotions that are part and parcel of agricultural work, she captures the harsh realities of Japanese dairy farming while also shedding light on this tough and powerful way of life in a series of sidesplitting episodes. Known for numerous works in which she celebrates the joys of life, in this essay-style comic Arakawa reveals her own roots and little-known truths about farming life.
