Shuna’s Journey is a translation of one of Hayao Miyazaki’s first graphic novels. It’s a retelling with Miyazaki’s signature gorgeous landscapes. The story feels slow, but is evenly paced. The afterword by the translator shows the historical relevance.
Moderate: Child abuse, Slavery, and Trafficking
Minor: Kidnapping
