A recent leak assured that the one-shot manga written and illustrated by Tatsuki Fujimoto , “ Look Back ”, will have an anime adaptation. The leak is pending official confirmation , although the domain “ https://lookback-anime.com/ ” has already been registered from Japan. In addition, it is also worth remembering that Tatsuki Fujimoto is the author of “ Fire Punch ” and “ Chainsaw Man “.
For her part, Tatsuki Fujimoto published
the original one-shot through publisher Shueisha 's Shonen Jump
Plus digital service in July 2021. In August of the same year, it was
revealed that the scene showing a paranoid man entering a school of art with an
axe, claiming it had been plagiarized by a student, was altered upon
publication due to negative reviews. Many pointed out that this was a reference
to the arson attack on Kyoto Animation studios in 2019.
Sinopsis of Look Back
Fourth-grade student Ayumu Fujino regularly draws
four-panel manga for her school newspaper and is praised for having the best
artwork in her class. One day, her teacher asks him to give one of her manga
spots in the school newspaper to a truant student named Kyomoto. When Kyomoto's
manga appears alongside Fujino's, she receives high praise for her detailed
illustrations, causing Fujino to become jealous.
Fujino refuses to be defeated by someone who barely goes
to school and is dedicated to learning how to create manga. However, as time
passes, his goal of eclipsing Kyomoto seems further and further away, and
Fujino, now in sixth grade, eventually gives up and stops making manga.
Graduation day arrives and Fujino is asked to give Kyomoto his graduation
certificate. By chance, the two end up meeting face to face, and their
unexpected meeting will end up having consequences far beyond what either of
them could predict.
