During the first lockdown in March, Glénat, the pioneer of manga in France, launched #ResteCheztoi. The purpose of this operation? Allow fans to relax between two hours of online classes or after a day of telecommuting. On the occasion of act 2 of this quarantine, Glénat Manga relaunches this beautiful idea. The offer proposed by the publisher is rather attractive. Each day, a chapter is available to readers for a period of 5 days. The 1st chapters are at your disposal for the duration of the confinement.
#ResteChezToi: Cult manga to discover
Ranma 1/2, the legendary work of Rumiko Takahashi, is one of the books you can discover. The oldest among you will remember Club Dorothée, a show that gave pride of place to anime. The animated adaptation of Ranma was on the program as well as Dragon Ball, Ken the Survivor… Glénat Manga offers the first chapter of the original edition. An original story that relies heavily on misunderstandings and incongruous situations. Ranma and her father return from China. They go to Akane's family. Father and son see their daily lives disrupted since they change their identity or gender since bathing in a particular spring. A manga without downtime that will delight those who are looking for comic situations in these troubled times. Bleach is one of those classics that regular readers know. A shonen where the concept is classic. The hero progresses as the fights progress. The series includes 74 volumes.
New series to read
Shadow House is among the new series whose beginnings you can read. A seinen that plunges us into a world very different from the usual standards. Emilico is a living doll that serves Kate, a member of the Shadow family, faceless shadows. A particular postulate that promises us a real change of scenery. In Blue Giant, jazz is the only musical register where improvisation is essential to become a reference. Through the daily life of Dai, you enter step by step into the story of a young musician who will become a true world reference. Jizo is a one-shot released very recently. A story where light and shadow wage an endless struggle.
The French manga of Glénat
Stray Dog is the fruit of the imagination of one of the few French mangaka. A talent dubbed by Japanese critics. Radiant is not the only hit produced by French-speaking authors. Other series stand out and Glénat bet on them. One example is Wind fighters. An action-oriented shonen that focuses on a brother and sister fighting against the ruling regime. Colorful characters, scathing lines, fights worthy of One Piece, the ingredients of a possible hit. Horion also puts us on a fantastic adventure. We follow two friends whose destiny of the world rests on their shoulders. An original feature, a story that seems classic but that reveals some interesting twists. Glénat does everything to make this confinement act 2, a period where manga continue to endure in the minds of enthusiasts with #ResteChezToi. Glénat is also the publishing house of original shonen like Dr Stone.
