Taken from MangaCast: Ochibi-san has a unique feature that I am sure will make it a hot commodity back home - It is in Japanese and in English! The 128 page collection of one page gag comics are presented in full-color when in Japanese and are then translated into English on the opposite page by renowned American commentator/reporter based in Japan Richard Berger. The volume is made up of newspaper strips that was for the Asahi Shinbun.
