About the series
Hiromu Arakawa, the creator of Fullmetal Alchemist, shifts gears with this gentle, grounded manga series published in English by Yen Press from 2018 to 2020. Co-written with Amanda Haley, the story follows a city boy who enrolls in an agricultural high school, discovering the hard work and surprising beauty of farm life. Across 15 issues, Arakawa’s warm, expressive art captures both the humor and the heartfelt lessons of raising livestock and growing food, making it a quietly essential read for fans of slice-of-life storytelling.
