Kariage Kun Read Online -

I’ve been going down a massive retro manga rabbit hole lately, and I keep circling back to (狩牌くん) by Takashi Morimoto. For those who don’t know, this was a bizarre, often surreal gag manga that ran in Weekly Shonen Jump back in the late 80s/early 90s. The art style is that classic messy, high-energy late-80s Jump aesthetic (think early Ninku or Jungle King Tar-chan ).

Kariage Kun is not handsome. He has a square head, a thick mustache reminiscent of a 1970s cop, narrow eyes that often turn into blank dots, and a perpetually hunched posture. He wears a cheap suit that doesn't fit quite right. This design is intentional. Eguchi wanted a character who looked like the exhausted man you see sleeping on the last train home.

Does anyone know of a hidden gem blog, a dead LiveJournal scanlation group, or even a discord server that has attempted to translate Kariage-kun ? Even just a summary of the chapters would be gold. I’ve been going down a massive retro manga
