Tamura Shigeru - An SOS from Robot Country

 

[MangaDex] [Download]

A short, full-color manga by Tamura Shigeru. Another fun adventure featuring Dr. Hoop and a robot that looks suspiciously like Lancelot. Reads left to right.

Thanks kitakevo of Taniguchi Scanlations for cleaning the scans!

March 2025 Update

 A few updates from the last couple of months:

• We finished Variant by Itagaki Nobuo. Thanks again to Kitakevo for cleaning, and to Elemhunter and Choolete for a couple of the Garo scans. 

• We did two oneshots by Tamura Shigeru. Both were published in Bikkuri House magazine and were never republished in any of his manga collections.
• A Rat's Aeroplane (1979-11) revisits one of the rats from his debut in Garo (Rat Clan). Tamura later adapted this oneshot into a full picture book by the same name.
• The World Grew Spines (1983-08) is advertised as a "special new comic" from Phantasmagoria. It shows the origin of the cactus people who appeared in Phantasmagoria Days.
  

• And finally, we released the winter chapters of Gogo no Akubi by Komatsu Shinya, marking the completion of volume one.

All of these are now available to read on MangaDex (links above) or to download from Mega, which has been updated with all our releases so far.

We're currently working on a few things, such as the next Tamura (either Star Head or An SOS from Robot Country), spring volume 2 of Gogo no Akubi, and some other random stuff that has piqued our interest.

The final chapter! If you enjoyed Phantasmagoria Days then please consider picking up one of Tamura's books to support his work.

We also added a bonus chapter to MangaDex with some Phantasmagoria illustrations from Tamura's Cyrstallized Dreams art book of colored-pencil works.

Next from Tamura, we plan to work on Star Head or An SOS from Robot Country, so give those a follow on Dex for updates. Thanks for reading!
