Hokusai

Finished

北斎

After four decades of life and work as Souri Tawaraya, the acclaimed artist makes a pivotal decision: he adopts the name Hokusai. This act is a declaration of intent, a break from the past to forge a revolutionary new style in the world of ukiyo-e prints.

However, this rebirth comes at a steep price. By shedding his old identity, Hokusai becomes an outsider in his own artistic circle. The manga follows his relentless struggle to carve out a new place for himself, battling against convention and hardship to live by his art and ultimately impose the visionary style that would captivate Japan and echo across the world.
