The anime movie adaptation of Look Back is now playing in North American theaters, and audiences are raving about the subtle genius of manga artist Tatsuki Fujimoto. The deceptively simple one-shot story, written in between Chainsaw Man Part 1 and Part 2, tells the heartwarming (and heart-wrenching) tale of two middle school girls whose love for manga brings them together in unexpected ways. While Fujimoto is best known for his wilder and more action-oriented stories, the nuance and emotion in Look Back captured the imagination of readers and animation studios alike.
