About the series
From 2009 to 2013, Daisuke Igarashi’s Children of the Sea—published in English by Viz—immerses readers in a lush, dreamlike tale of a young girl who befriends two mysterious boys raised by dugongs in the ocean. Over its five-issue run, Igarashi’s breathtaking, fluid artwork and JN Productions’ translation evoke a world where the sea itself becomes a character, blending ecological wonder with a quietly haunting coming-of-age story. This series stands out as a meditative masterpiece of manga, celebrated for its ethereal visuals and profound connection to nature.
