A manga mixing fiction with facts and actual tactics used by North Korea to kidnap Japanese nationals has been published in Japan, in order to draw attention to the issue of abduction by Pyongyang¡¯s agents, which has seen little progress for more than 20 years.
¡°It was difficult to create a manga based on the (decades-old) abduction issue, which does not yet have an ending,¡± manga artist Akiko Tomita said at an event held in the city of Musashino in western Tokyo on April 10 to celebrate the publishing of ¡°Ore Antif@ Rachi Ge no Kyosei Event kara Nigeraremasen.¡±
The over-400-page manga was completed without pay for Tomita.
