The Manga’s Origins

The journey of **Ganglion** began back in 2007, when Hisaya Shiraiwa initiated the action-packed manga in Comic Yoshimoto, brought to life with illustrations by Takashi Itsuki. This exciting collaboration culminated in a single tankoubon volume, which was compiled and published by Wani Books in April 2009. Fans of the original work are eager to see how this unique story translates to animation.

What’s the Story About?

Step into Tokyo in the early 2000s, where we meet Isobe, a dedicated fighter for the enigmatic Ganglion Corporation—a company with grand ambitions for world domination. For Isobe, his workplace is less of an office and more of a constant battlefield. Despite donning only tights for his perilous assignments, such as the “Tokyo Cedar Pollen Operation” and the “Mount Fuji Bombing Operation,” he often finds himself easily thwarted by the righteous blows of the hero, Hopeman. This is a work-related drama with a twist, capturing Isobe’s struggles to endure the often unreasonable demands of his superiors in an era just beginning to grapple with corporate compliance. **Ganglion** is a poignant and sometimes absurd tale of a salaryman fighter, a narrative dedicated to all working people, and one that is truly unlike anything else you’ll encounter.
