My Name is Shingo

In cooperation with Manga Underground

















Raws by NFKira
Translation by Molokidan
Cleaning by Archer
Editing by morten


Two elementary school pupils, a girl named Marine and a boy named Satoru, fall in love and are blessed with a rather unorthodox child which happens to be a robot. This robot is called Shingo and the story recounts how its mind develops and how it travels the world in pursuit of its ‘parents’ whom it has never had a chance to meet.

Volume 2 & 3 released.

Thank you for bringing this masterpiece to us.

IMO this the best of your projects (which are all very good to begin with) and I'm surprised nobody commented yet.

[morten]

Thanks for the praise. I really love this project with it's remarkable story.

I guess some may find out later when the series will be completed what they have with Shingo. It's at the same time poetic and psychological and indeed one of the greatest mangas out there. It has a very big group of fans in Japan and I hope that more people will realize what they have here to read.

Thank you for those releases, i had no idea this book existed.
And after being a bit puzzled by the apparently uncertain direction of the story in the 1st volume, i just devoured the 2 next ones and truly enjoyed the developments.

A truly great story indeed, i'm always amazed when i find books like these ones that i never heard about before and discover they are masterpieces.
Worked the same with your Shingeki no Kyojin and I am a hero releases, books that hooked me entirely.

[Nintakun]

This manga looks awesomely wonderful!
Any prevision to the release of the next volumes?

[ridiculus]

I am very surprised that I've found a translation of this manga, but I am also very glad, because it's one of the critically most acclaimed works by Umezu. Thank you.
