God created the heavens and the Earth -- but, little-known fact, he outsourced the
animals to the office of Heaven's Design Team! This hilarious and educational
manga features weird real-life animals and puts even some humdrum critters in a
strange new light.
On the seventh day, God rested. But it turns out He started getting tired
long before... In fact, when it came time to design the animals, God contracted
the whole thing out to an agency... Heaven's Design Team! They love their
work -- the giraffe, the koala, the ping-pong tree sponge(?!) -- but their divine
client's demands are often vague, and the results are sometimes wild in more
ways than one. Then there's prototyping and testing to worry about, not to
mention Ms. Pluto's penchant for grotesque and Mr. Saturn, who just wants to
make everything look like a horse... But in the end, all creatures great and
small get their due!
Includes photos and educational information about the REAL animals
created in this volume...
Giraffe
Red-eyed tree frog
Koala
Horsehair worm
Armadillo
Anteater
Sea cucumber
American red deer
Fiddler crab
Narwhal
Sperm whale
Giant squid
Seahorse
...and many more!
A digital-first hit for Kodansha
Surprising, educational facts makes this a spiritual successor to Kodansha hit Cells at
Work! Each chapter ends with photos of the real animals featured in the story.
