Continuing to search for what a human being should be
The story of Koper-kun and his uncle.
Even after 80 years since its publication, it continues to shine
A historical masterpiece has been made into a manga for the first time!
Since it was published in 1937,
It has been read by many people. Here comes
Genzaburo Yoshino's masterpiece "How do you live?''
How should I live as a human being?
As I read this book for fun,
This book is written in a way that makes people think naturally.
Not only children but also many adults.
We have been welcomed with sympathy.
Courage, bullying, poverty, inequality, education...
Facing the themes of life that have not changed since then
The main characters, Mr. Koper and his uncle.
In the postures of these two people, there are many words that serve as guidelines for how to live.
This timeless masterpiece has been brought back to life in the form of a manga, keeping the goodness of the original work intact.
This is a book that I want both those who are reading it for the first time, and even those who have read it several times, to pick it up and use it as an opportunity to reevaluate their lives.

Mr. Akira Ikegami, Mr. Hayao Miyazaki I also love reading The reason why "How do you live?" was made into a manga
Kopel-kun, a boy with great intellectual curiosity, and the well-educated uncle who watches over him in place of his late father. Through these heartwarming exchanges, this classic children's educational novel that explains the meaning of life in a simple and profound way has been made into a manga for the first time. It has been a hot topic since its publication, and its circulation continues to increase even today.
?gI have loved the original book since I was a child, and I knew that it was loved by famous people such as Akira Ikegami and Hayao Miyazaki.However, the direct impetus for the project came from a close friend. This is because it was also a favorite read by young editors in their 20s and 30s. I thought that if we turned a good book that has been passed down through generations into a manga, it would reach a wider audience.'' (Editor in charge) The advice given to Mr. Koper is published as text instead of being made into a manga. Just like the original work, this book is designed to make readers think for themselves about profound themes such as "How to see things,'' "About true experience,'' and "About human troubles, mistakes, and greatness.''
"The main theme of the original work is Koperu-kun's growth, but in the manga we added an element where the old man guides Koperu-kun and grows together with him.Maybe the idea was successful, and the young I feel that not only older people but also older people are enjoying this book by putting themselves in the perspective of an old man.''
