posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Indonesian publisher M&C! announced on Tuesday that it has licensed Soyogo Iwaki's Hinatama manga. It will publish all two volumes of the manga on November 25.
Iwaki's "slow life story" manga is set in a rural part of Kyūshū in Japan. Hinata, a local high school boy, is bored of his everyday life. But one day, a new family moves into the small town from Tokyo, and a boy named Ayato transfers into Hinata's school. Ayato is a showy person, but spontaneous and natural. He is accompanied by his younger brother, who hates the slow country life, and his selfish sisters. Hinata and Ayato get to know each other, and slowly begin to get used to each other's company.
Iwaki (Gym Men!, Marvelous Twins) launched the manga in Futabasha's Otome High! magazine in 2011, and ended it in 2012. Futabasha published the manga's two compiled book volumes in December 2013.
