“Dentaku”(japanese title “Odaijini”) is the title of a manga series published from ’91 to ’94 in the weekly manga magazine called “Morning” (Kodansha) which has a circulation of 1.2 million copies a week. The series was later published as two books in ’93 and ’94.
“Dentaku” lets us discover, or rediscover, Japan of yesteryear, the daily life of people at the time and the nature that surrounds them, with much humor, and in a style reminiscent of Japanese woodblock prints.
