Title: Loan Wolf Vol. 1
Description: Loan Wolf details the exploits of Hitomi and Mori, two best friends who owe the Japanese government 100 million yen for derailing a train during a childhood prank. In a series of increasingly wacky episodes, this eccentric-yet-resourceful pair test their friendship, their personal mettle, and the limitations of Japanese society in their quest to acquire a whole lotta money.   Along the way, the author frenetically lampoons subjects such as gambling, baseball, night school, cherry blossom viewing, and spy movies, all through Hiromi and Mori's uniquely twisted perspective. This is a smart, funny, occasionally surreal story that also offers a critique of Japanese society, as well as more than a few touching moments.   The publisher recommends this title for all age groups.
