Topic - Oishinbo

is a long-running cooking manga written by Tetsu Kariya and drawn by Akira Hanasaki. The manga's title is a portmanteau of the Japanese word for delicious, oishii, and the word for someone who loves to eat, kuishinbo. The series depicts the adventures of culinary journalist Shirō Yamaoka and his partner (and later wife), Yūko Kurita. It was published by Shogakukan between 1983 and 2008 in Big Comic Spirits, and resumed again on February 23, 2009 only to be discontinued indefinitely after the May 12 edition in the weekly Big Comic Spirits as a response by the publisher to harsh criticism of Oishinbo's treatment of the Fukushima Daiichi disaster. Before discontinuation, Oishinbo was collected in 110 tankōbon volumes, making it the 8th longest manga released. The series was a perennial best-seller, selling 1.2 million copies per volume, - Source: Wikipedia
