<p> There is a gag manga that is secretly popular among professional comedians.</p>
<p> It is &#8220;Give My Regards to Kenshiro,&#8221; which is serialized in &#8220;Weekly Young Magazine. This work was featured in the TV program &#8220;Kawashima/Yamauchi no Manga Numa&#8221; (Nippon Television Network Corporation), which introduces manga, in the project &#8220;This Manga is Amazing! (NTV), a TV program introducing manga, and was even praised by Kenji Yamauchi (41) of Kamaitachi as having &#8220;quite a high sense of comedy.</p>
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
<p> The film tells the story of Koichi Numakura, a boy who swore revenge for the loss of his mother to a yakuza when he was a child, and who, yearning for Kenshiro, the hero of &#8220;Fist of the North Star,&#8221; learns assassination techniques and grows into a full-fledged kanjin. However, what resides in his &#8220;genius&#8221; fist is not a killing technique, but a massage technique that makes people happy. This is a funny massage comedy about a man bent on revenge, and it has been praised on the Internet as &#8220;too stupid to be funny,&#8221; &#8220;a new kind of gag manga,&#8221; and &#8220;a manga that makes you learn more about pressure points and makes you laugh.</p>

<p> The author is Jasmine Gyu, a &#8220;mysterious&#8221; manga artist whose face, age, and gender are undisclosed. After graduating from Kyoto Seika University&#8217;s Story Manga Department, she began serializing &#8220;Back Street Girls&#8221; in Young Magazine in 2015. It is a gag manga with an eccentric setting in which three yakuza gangsters play the role of idols at their gang leader&#8217;s behest, and has been adapted into a TV drama and a live-action film.</p>
<p> Although &#8220;Give My Regards to Kenshiro&#8221; is popular for its comedic sense that would make even comedians groan, there were various hurdles before the serialization began. The story was inspired by the nationally popular &#8220;Fist of the North Star,&#8221; and permission to use the &#8220;Fist of the North Star&#8221; was required. The editor in charge of the story hesitated at first in the face of the big title. However, the author of the story</p>
<p><strong> I really want to do a massage manga that pays homage to &#8220;Fist of the North Star.</strong></p>
<p> The editor, however, was encouraged by the author&#8217;s enthusiasm and said, &#8220;I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll get through the difficult hurdle.</p>
<p><strong> The editor was persuaded by the author&#8217;s enthusiasm, saying, &#8220;I want to publish this work even if I have to go through a difficult hurdle.</strong></p>
<p> The editor was persuaded by the author&#8217;s enthusiasm, &#8220;I really want to do a massage manga that pays homage to &#8216;Hokuto no Ken.</p>
<p> It seems that he was able to obtain permission without any problems, and Takeru Takemono, the original author of &#8220;Fist of the North Star,&#8221; told him, &#8220;I am not angry with you. On the other hand, Tetsuo Hara, who created the illustrations, even gave the first volume of the book his &#8220;seal of approval,&#8221; as if he had never heard of it.</p>
<p> According to the editor in charge of the book, Jasmine Gyu herself is also a good massage therapist. We will keep an eye on the development of &#8220;Give My Regards to Kenshiro,&#8221; a comedy with a new sense of &#8220;warming the old and learning the new.</p>
