And the manga turned Adachi Mitsuru as the premier mangaka of the 80s. In short, it was the series of the decade.
Years later, a stale lunch, natsu anison, a visit to Manga Kissa 10, and a random curiosity caused me to grab the series from the shelf. So what was it in Touch that touched the hearts of many Japanese? Well… Koko de touch. lol. ^^;;
