And the Strange and Funky Happenings One Day

Natsujikei Miyazaki
4.14/5 (7 ratings)
Natsujikei Miyazaki has been hailed as one of the most imaginative new cartoonists of her generation, and their works have been recognized on industry best-of lists and at the Japan Media Arts Festival.

...AND THE STRANGE AND FUNKY HAPPENINGS ONE DAY brings to life 33 small sci-fi fragments infused with an ecstatic sense of playfulness and wonder which slice through that mysterious, inescapable thing "everyday life". A collection of short story masterpieces showcasing the dynamism of ordinary people under mundanely extraordinary circumstances.

A girl with near-nonexistent supernatural powers is actually just a normal kid, a potter who keeps breaking his own pottery, a man whose job is to put protective cling film on things yet struggles to protect what he treasures most, a boy who wakes up one day with a tag hanging from his ear labelled "Pull", two people that are the only ones left on the planet and consider whether to risk meeting up in person, a group of planets return to their "home" orbit for a long overdue stardust reunion, and many, many more. Gorgeous and eclectic, these stories almost casually affirm what it means to live, and all ways of life.
