The anime adaptation of Takopi’s Original Sin shocked the anime industry with its dark and complex themes. Written and illustrated by Taizan 5, the short manga series was serialized in Shueisha’s Shonen Jump+ platform in 2021. The anime adaptation is last year’s darkest and one of the most highly rated anime series. The story will take you on an emotional rollercoaster as it tells a complex psychological story within just six episodes. The story focuses on Happin, a squid-like creature whose goal is to spread happiness, and Shizuka Kuze, an unsmiling girl who named him Takopi after rescuing him from bullies.

After learning about the girl’s tragic life, Takopi tries his best to understand complex human emotions and fulfill his goal, but that may be a lot easier said than done. While Taizan5 is best known for this masterpiece, the creator has also released several one-shots and one more short manga since 2020. Only a year after Takopi’s Original Sin manga was released, the creator returned with The Ichinose Family’s Deadly Sins in the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine. The manga remained underrated throughout these years, but it finally gathered attention after Viz Media confirmed its first-ever English release.
