He has no new ideas, and he decides he loathes manga, manga artists and the whole industry. He becomes estranged from his manga-editor wife and begins turning to a range of “escorts,” as he self-destructs. He (Fukuzawa, like Asano) has been quite successful in his career, and then just hits a wall. can it? But that is in a way what Asano is asking: Can people create darkly realistic manga and survive? By the end of the story, you may not care about that question, though.ĭownfall is a one-volume manga about a mid- to late-career manga-ka, Fukuzawa, who has hit rock bottom, created by Inio Asano. I am reading Inio Asano’s most commercially accessible manga series right now, the dystopian Dead Demon DeDeDe Destruction, but Downfall can’t very well be commercially successful.
