Yotaka Futatabi | Manga Monday

Welcome to Manga Monday! This week we're diving into Yotaka Futatabi (Nighthawk Returns), Fuyuki Izumida's gritty action-comedy about Aoi Yotaka—a legendary assassin who took out 40 people in one night, then ghosted the underworld for eight years. Now she's 33, broke, alcoholic, chain-smoking, and blowing her last yen on gacha games. Peak NEET energy.
