I was extremely excited to learn recently that one of my absolute favorite series is being adapted from light novel to manga format, and I thought to start a topic here to see if I could pique anyone's interest in this masterpeice of a story.

 

Kino no Tabi is told mainly through the eyes of a traveler, a teenage girl named Kino, who acts as a neutral observer as she journeys from country to country on a sentient motorcycle she calls Hermes. Along the way they encounter many different people and different ways of life, both good and bad. The story at times takes on a darker tone and tackles some pretty heavy topics without shying away from the ugliness, exploring human nature and mixing in a bit of philosophy to make you think. It's really a gorgeous work and I would love to see it get more of the recognition it desperately deserves.

 

There's a short prologue chapter released and it can be read here:http://bato.to/reader#78eee96635f187a1 and the first official chapter will be released next month!

Please do! It's seriously never let me down. It's going to get another anime sometime soon too, not much word on who's working on it yet though.

 

I don't have words to fully express my love for this series, but I hope people will give it a chance. And on that note, here's the first chapter. Anyone else who's interested please check it out!
