Asano mentioned in January that it is possible that his next work will focus on transgender issues...

Should be interesting, if nothing else!

Is this the series where the main character is depicted as a minimalist cartoon duck or something despite him being a normal person in the context of the story?

There's a great website called Google. It actually comes with an Image Search function, if you searched "Oyasumi Punpun" the main character would probably come up in the first couple of results. If he were depicted as a minimalist cartoon duck or something, you'd probably see one.

If he weren't a normal person, you wouldn't say "depicted", you'd just say "is this the series where the main character is a duck?"

Anyway, this has been one of the best manga I've read, and I'm looking forward to the ending.

Awesome! Hope it wraps up wonderfully and that Asano will be able to write more great things in the future.

(PS: Wishing on every star for an English-language publication of this one. Pretty please!!)

More polite and informative answer: yes.

Ah, but you didn't know it was a minimalist cartoon duck or something, did you?

Anyway, I read it for awhile but I kind of got feed up with the minimalist cartoon duck or something ruining every relationship he was in.
