Why Shintaro Kago Doesn’t Belong to Manga
You’ll find Kago in manga sections. That’s a mistake.
What he makes is closer to avant-garde cinema trapped in paper, or performance art gone silent. He uses the tools of manga — paneling, pacing — but to destroy them. His work feels wrong in a bookshop. It belongs in a medical lab or black gallery.
Call it manga if you want. He’s already dismantling the label.
