About the series
Kowloon Generic Romance, published by Yen Press since 2022, is a moody, atmospheric manga series set in the labyrinthine, decaying Kowloon Walled City—a place where memory and reality blur. Most closely associated with writer and artist Jun Mayuzuki, the series follows a real estate agent navigating the claustrophobic, nostalgic maze of the city, where the past feels as tangible as the present. Its 11-issue run matters for its hauntingly beautiful, detailed art and its quiet, speculative exploration of identity and belonging within a legendary urban space.
