Manga reviews and deep dives

My deep dives into the manga that hooked me, with the characters, themes and endings explained, and an honest review. So far, Ping Pong and Planetes.

Ping Pong MangaPing Pong by Taiyo Matsumoto (1996–1997). Two childhood friends, a handful of rivals and one table. Is it worth reading? Plus the characters, anime and ending.
Planetes MangaPlanetes by Makoto Yukimura (1999–2004). A crew of orbital debris collectors aboard the Toy Box, and a deep dive into ambition, love and what makes us human.
