Terrific manga, so on the one hand I'm pleased to see it's getting the attention it deserves, but at the same time I feel a little disappointed that Kotaro Isaka's assertion that it would "never be turned into a dorama" (which he meant in a good way) has been sort of proven wrong now.

I love these kinds of manga that take every-day people or situations and makes a story out of it.

I'll probably take a look at it when it gets here.

Allow me to add that Inio Asano also recommends Boys on the Run.

Let see if that fact (read: bait) could attract some specific users to this thread. Twisted Evil

I already like Hanazawa's Ressentiment, so I wouldn't need any further coaxing if Boys on the Run were ever available in English (legal or not).

(Plus, you could have, y'know, helped push Asano's Solanin a bit when I made a thread about it in October. Razz)
