Look Back by Tatsuki Fujimoto is Finally Getting an Anime Adaptation

Tatsuki Fujimoto’s “Look Back” is all set to get an anime adaptation after years of waiting and the tentative date for the same is been said to be June 2024. Mangaka Fujimoto is surely among the race to be the author of this decade with his iconic “Chainsaw Man”. He recently released a manga titled ‘Look Back’ that is expected to be full of incredible storytelling but not as much action as ‘Chainsaw Man’. Let us decode this new manga that will soon be an anime and see what we should expect.

Fujimoto’s Knack for Astonishing One-Shots

Look back by Tatsuki Fujimoto is going to be a one shot and not that long in sequence. To those who don’t know, one shot manga are those that just have one chapter and the possibility of next season is zero to very little. Despite its short length, Fujimoto has managed to deliver a powerful and profound narrative that might be better than few full-length manga series. If you haven’t had the chance to read Fujimoto’s other one-shots, we highly recommend going through ‘Sasaki stopped the bullet’, ‘Love is Blind’and many other of his works. Look back stands out among his one-shots as a poignant tale that touches on themes of friendship, sacrifice, and personal growth.

Look Back: Venting through a Unique Storytelling Canvas

Look Back starts off with our main character, Fujino, being praised for her short manga strips in the school newspaper. She is one of the few manga creators in the school, setting her apart from her peers. However, her position as the sole manga creator is soon challenged when a truant student requests a spot in the newspaper. Despite her initial reluctance, Fujino eventually gives in, only to be blown away by the astounding talent of this new student, Kyomoto.

Meeting Kyomoto becomes a turning point in Fujino’s life, as it inspires her to become a better artist. She sacrifices her social life and academic achievements to pursue her passion wholeheartedly. Through the character of Fujino, Fujimoto portrays the relentless pursuit of artistic excellence and the sacrifices often made by aspiring mangaka.

The Impact of Fujino’s Artistry

As Fujino desperately tries to catch up with the truant student, she realizes that despite her relentless efforts, she can never surpass her rival. This experience of continually falling short resonates with many individuals who have faced similar situations in their pursuits. The heartbreak of striving tirelessly but being unable to reach the same level as someone else can be overwhelming.

Fujimoto skillfully depicts Fujino’s emotions and captures the struggle of many artists who face this disheartening reality. It is through this exploration of not being able to catch up that it becomes a poignant reflection of the challenges faced by both aspiring and established creators.

In the end, Fujino takes solace in the impact her work has had on Kyomoto’s life. She returns to creating her orignal manga- “Shark Kick” with renewed determination, hoping to change the lives of others as she did for Kyomoto. Fujimoto conveys the idea that through art, individuals can influence and shape the lives of those around them
