The manga about the mayor who eliminates 100% of her citizens' enemies is now available

The manga Danzai Shichō: Gōda Takeko ga Shimin no Teki o 100% Haijo Itashimasu is now available in Japan. The series, written by Otowa Shirabe and illustrated by Imai Yasue, has been published since November 8 on DMM Books and CMOA as an early release.

The story follows Gōda Takeko, a hot-blooded mayor with enormous support among the residents of Takarada City. Her motto is clear: "I'll do anything for the citizens!" And she delivers by confronting the problems that arise in her municipality, such as school bullying, embezzlement, and abuse of power.

Takeko doesn't beat around the bush. Among her targets are a councilman who psychologically abuses his wife, a school that turns a blind eye to bullying, and problematic city hall employees. She treats all of them as "enemies of the citizens" and punishes them without hesitation.

But not everything is clean justice. The plot also introduces a bitter twist: there are those who envy the mayor's achievements and conspire to overthrow her. The series combines the satisfaction of watching abusers fall with a political tension that could cost the protagonist her position.

A bet from the Ropopo! label

The manga is published under the Ropopo! label, a comics imprint for all kinds of genres defined by offering stories centered on the "crazy love" of adult women. The label aims to reach readers who enjoy intense plots and female characters with strong personalities.

In this case, the premise is reminiscent of those vigilante series that get straight to the point, but with a tone closer to municipal drama than to fantasy action. There's no magic or powers: Takeko's weapon is her determination and her popularity.

For now, distribution is digital-only and limited to Japan. There's no news about a possible license for Latin America or a Spanish edition. We'll have to wait and see if a publisher takes a chance on this mayor who doesn't leave a single puppet with its head on.
