Nichijou: My Ordinary Life #1
"Chapter 1" of Nichijou: My Ordinary Life #1 introduces Nano, a girl with a giant wind-up key for a back, as she tries to convince her creator—Professor Shinonome, a perpetually childish eight-year-old genius—to remove it so she can blend in more easily. Written by Keiichi Arawi and Jenny McKeon, with art and inks by Keiichi Arawi, the issue blends absurd humor with quiet moments of self-awareness, all captured in a style that’s both playful and precise. The cover by Keiichi Arawi perfectly captures the series’ offbeat charm.
