Tennoji Haru is an excellent communicator. He is loved by all people regardless of age or gender. He appears like an easygoing person, but he is actually ambitious and will do anything for success. Haru is offered a job with the nation's largest IT company "Dragon Bank", but he turns down the offer. Instead, he decides to start his own business with his friend Taira Manabu. His goal is to earn 1 trillion dollars.
Meanwhile, Taira is an excellent engineer with remarkable IT knowledge. Personality-wise, he is quite the opposite of Haru. He's passive and has a hard time communicating with people. Due to that, he failed his job interview with "Dragon Bank" and set a new goal of earning 1 trillion dollars with Haru.
Adapted from the manga series "Trillion Game" (トリリオンゲーム) written by Inagaki Riichiro (稲垣理一郎) and illustrated by Ikegami Ryoichi (池上遼一).
Eripiyo is initially a woman leading a normal life until it is turned upside down after watching a performance of the minor idol group ChamJam, which leads her to becoming obsessed with one of its members, Maina Ichii. Despite Eripiyo's enthusiasm towards her, Maina is consistently the least popular member of the group, leaving Eripiyo to take it upon herself to buy a lot of Maina's merchandise, which mainly involves singles.
Due to her using almost all of her money to buy this merchandise, Eripiyo has only a single tracksuit she wears all the time. She frequently goes to ChamJam's concerts with her friends and fellow ChamJam fans: Kumasa, whose favorite is Reo Igarashi, and Motoi, who prefers Sorane Matsuyama. Eripiyo continues to work several part-time jobs to support Maina, and Maina herself increasingly becomes concerned that Eripiyo is pushing herself too hard for her.
Adapted from the manga "Oshi ga Budoukan Ittekuretara Shinu" (推しが武道館いってくれたら死ぬ) by Hirao Auri (平尾アウリ).
Meet Tanaka Maririn, just graduated from college and beginning her life in the workforce… at the bottommost rung. She’s not expected to know much (and she doesn’t) and she’s not expected to last long, but few at first are aware that not only does she have an upbeat attitude, but a sarcastic streak a mile long and a fearlessness to match with it. Sometimes she wears slacks instead of a skirt. She WILL succeed, and she WILL find that handsome man she saw only briefly on her first day of work after her orientation.
Don’t even think you can stop her…
Won the 15th Kodansha Manga Award for general manga in 1991 (tied with Kachou Shima Kousaku).
