About the series
A quietly gripping 17-issue drama from Asuka, No Money (2009–2019) follows a young man forced into an unexpected and precarious living arrangement after his cousin’s arrest leaves him homeless and indebted. The series explores themes of desperation, intimacy, and power imbalance through a tense, slow-burn relationship, with writer and artist teaming to create a claustrophobic atmosphere of emotional and financial dependency. Its understated, character-driven storytelling and mature handling of difficult subject matter made it a notable entry in the publisher’s catalog, earning a dedicated readership for its raw, unflinching portrayal of vulnerability.
