ジョゼと虎と魚たち(上) [Joze to Tora to Sakanatachi]

A tender two-issue manga adaptation of Seiko Tanabe’s beloved short story, Joze to Tora to Sakanatachi (published in English as Josee, the Tiger and the Fish) reimagines the tale for a modern audience through Kadokawa’s 2020 series. The story follows a young man who becomes a caretaker for a brilliant, wheelchair-bound artist named Josee, navigating their growing bond against the backdrop of her protective grandmother and his own dreams. With lush, expressive artwork by Nao Emoto, this compact series captures the quiet, bittersweet beauty of two people learning to see beyond each other’s limitations—a poignant addition to the manga landscape that stays faithful to the source’s emotional core.
