Johnny Hiro volume 2

de Fred Chao

Johnny Hiro has spent the last few years working as an underpaid sushi chef for his stingy, negative boss, Mr. Masago, and he's beginning to doubt his ability to provide his girlfriend Mayumi with the kind of life he thinks she deserves. Though their relationship is happy, he wonders if it's stable enough to be something she can find lasting happiness in. Figuring all this out is even harder in New York City, with all the giant gorillas, sumo wrestlers, Japanese gangsters, and rogue catering companies that seem to show up wherever John goes. Throw in romantic competition, Mr. Masago's shady history with his rival, Shinto Pete, and the reappearance of an ex-girlfriend, and the whole thing starts to look like a case study in the way even the tiniest decision can influence the next and create huge differences in day-to-day life.
