He enters a school for training Kendou swordman, but the seniors of school are very harsh and intolerable. But Ryu doesn\'t surrender and overcomes the problems, later on he impresses his seniors and they begin to like him. This manga tells a great story against the richly textured background of historical Japan and China, it has a refined and excellent artwork. Murakami\'s views on Chinese and Korean people is very warm, and not those of the previous invader and governor such as the extreme right party in Japan. Another interesting part of the manga is its rich depiction of Japanese colorful life. A typical example of the realistic style and a manga of high reputation in Korea and Japan.

Gol D. Roger was known as the Pirate King, the strongest and most infamous being to have sailed the Grand Line. The capture and death of Roger by the World Government brought a change throughout the world. His last words before his death revealed the location of the greatest treasure in the world, One Piece. It was this revelation that brought about the Grand Age of Pirates, men who dreamed of finding One Piece (which promises an unlimited amount of riches and fame), and quite possibly the most coveted of titles for the person who found it, the title of the Pirate King. Enter Monkey D. Luffy, a 17-year-old boy who defies the standard definition of a pirate. Rather than the popular persona of a wicked, hardened, toothless pirate who ransacks villages for fun, Luffy’s reason for being a pirate is one of pure wonder; the thought of an exciting adventure and meeting new and intriguing people, along with finding One Piece. Following in the footsteps of his childhood hero, Luffy and his crew travel across the Grand Line, experiencing crazy adventures, unveiling dark mysteries and battling strong enemies, all in order to reach One Piece.

Ran, his (actually Shinichi's) childhood friend takes this little boy under her wing and brings him to her home. Conan now lives at a detective agency run by Ran's father, but his mind is as keen as ever and he continues to solve mysteries... always allowing Ran's father to take all the credit. As far as everyone's concerned, Conan is just a little kid anyway... even to Ran. This is *extremely* frustrating to Conan since nobody will listen to a 'little boy.'

Short manga serial of Hideo Azuma that features the first Neko-Mimi (cat-ears) in history, Sham Cat. (further details in the rest of the desc.) Serialized in Weekly Shonen Champion. Descriptions for each chapter: - Chapter 1 - **Sham Appears** An odd cat who can speak human language comes running into the apartment of a ronin student boy. The cat also turns into a bishojo! - Chapter 2 - **Cutting a Tail, and a Great Transformation...!?** Ban (The last name of this ronin student) goes to his part-time job, but Sham, wanting attention, follows him around after. - Chapter 3 - **Dig Up Shadows, Nyan Nyan!!** All living things have a great weakness. You\'ll know right away when you dig up their shadow... Sham displays her mysterious ESP, and an enemy bearing an existential crisis draws near. - Chapter 4 - **When You Want to be Popular, This Scent...** Ban falls in love with Ranko, the idol of Ajima Prep. He tearfully wishes, \"I want to be popular for once!!\" Sham easily succeeds in granting this. - Chapter 5 - **A Reassuring Ally Appears!!** Tomorrow is the entrance exams at last, yet Ban isn\'t doing well and becomes frantic. He is able to fall asleep from Sham\'s ESP, but Sham\'s fleas start to rampage... Sham Cat was collected into Azuma\'s **Absurdity Diary** (不条理日記, Fujouri Nikki), a compilation of short SF one-shots and serials which were parodies of popular SF works and it was released the same year. Absurdity Diary won the 10th Seiun Award for Best Comic also within the same year. Azuma mentions that Sham Cat is intended to be a parody of Shambleau by female American SF author C. L. Moore (part of the Northwest Smith series of short stories). But in addition to this, one could also observe two key influences in Sham Cat. Sham Cat, both the character and the manga, is Azuma\'s composite of two series, [Urusei Yatsura](https://mangadex.org/title/6b9206b3-5c0f-4cf8-a0cc-d2c9e1aa4df9/urusei-yatsura), and its female lead, Lum, and [The Star of Cottonland](https://mangadex.org/title/6bc9f38a-9a36-4a3f-9a70-4d465e9d597f/the-star-of-cottonland) with its lead, Chibi-Neko, both of which were being serialized around this time, and Azuma himself professed to very fond of Urusei Yatsura from its very first chapter (source: QuickJapan, issue 71). The compositions, tone, flow, plots, and characterization of Sham Cat parallels Lum and the early chapters of Urusei Yatsura, with additional elements being from Chibi-Neko. Hideo Azuma\'s lasting influence with Sham Cat can still be seen to this day. What frequently, and erroneously, is referred to as the \'Anime Cat Girl\' are all modern day Sham Cats. One could humorously say that we have many different breeds of Sham Cats today.
