Solanin

Asano Inio

Born in Ibaraki prefecture, 1980

 

Solanin was serialized in a weekly manga magazine for adults between 2005 and 2006 and was made into a live-action movie in April 2010. The story revolves around the couple Inoue Meiko, who is in her second year as a working woman, and Taneda Shigeo, a job-hopper, and their friends. They face the harsh reality of life in the mellow but stagnant contemporary society and find themselves in a state of moratorium but each begins to pursue their own meaning of life. The feelings of the young characters who are groping their way through life are expressed through monologues written in white letters against solid black backgrounds.
