HALL OF FAME

The lines do not stop until they reach the corners of the page. Icchuuya stands in the hall as Hirune's first book, one that gathered its readers through the sheer density of its drawing.

It is an adult anthology from Wani Magazine that collects eight stories from COMIC Kairakuten and Weekly Kairakuten, along with new material. “Ippai Asobo!”, which follows a couple through a day out together, opens the book; after it, setting and relationship change from story to story: childhood friends meeting again after ten years, a university rugby club, a photo session, a maid. The publisher's tags include school settings and uniforms, and the subject matter takes in size difference, training and SM, and group scenes.

Reviewers agree, overwhelmingly, on the rendering. Backgrounds, sound effects, even the creases of a man's hands are filled in with line, and hatching sets black hard against white. The publisher itself advertises the opening story's fisheye perspective and first-person viewpoint. Readers also credit the way each story tries a different mode of presentation, and the force of a line that keeps the feel of analog drawing.

Several reviewers write that the work had been talked about on Twitter, now X, and that they had been waiting for a collection. Hirune followed it with a second book, Nettaiya, in 2022 and later with a third, both also from Wani Magazine; this is where that run begins.

The print edition came out in December 2020, and the digital release followed in February 2021. An official English edition has been licensed by FAKKU. It stands 128th among the hall's commercial works.
