{"product_id":"shiro-amano-kingdom-hearts-358-2-days-manga","title":"Shiro Amano - Kingdom Hearts 358\/2 Days Manga","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKingdom Hearts 358\/2 Days\u003c\/strong\u003e is the manga adaptation of the beloved Nintendo DS spinoff game, illustrated by Shiro Amano — the artist behind the entire Kingdom Hearts manga series. The story follows Roxas, a Nobody born with no memories or sense of self, as he takes his first steps as a new recruit of the shadowy Organization XIII. Guided by the sardonic but quietly loyal Axel and joined by the mysterious \"No. 14\" — a girl named Xion who has also lost her past — Roxas spends 358 days going on missions, eating sea-salt ice cream at the top of the clock tower in Twilight Town, and slowly, painfully discovering what it means to have a heart when you're something that's supposed to be incapable of feeling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOf all the Kingdom Hearts stories, \u003cem\u003e358\/2 Days\u003c\/em\u003e is perhaps the most quietly devastating. It's a small, intimate story built almost entirely on the friendship between three people — Roxas, Axel, and Xion — set against the cold institutional machinery of Organization XIII. Shiro Amano brings his characteristic clean linework and expressive character work to the material, and the manga format actually strengthens the emotional pacing of a story that was always better suited to cutscenes than gameplay. Fans who remember crying at the ending of the DS game should prepare accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fourth series in Shiro Amano's ongoing Kingdom Hearts manga adaptations, \u003cem\u003e358\/2 Days\u003c\/em\u003e takes place chronologically between \u003cem\u003eKingdom Hearts\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eKingdom Hearts II\u003c\/em\u003e, and was originally published in Japan between Volumes 5 and 6 of the \u003cem\u003eKH II\u003c\/em\u003e manga. Essential reading for any Kingdom Hearts fan who wants the full picture of Roxas's story before the events of KH2 unfold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOther Notable Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShiro Amano:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kingdom Hearts (Manga), Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories (Manga), Kingdom Hearts II (Manga), Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix (Manga)   \u003cstrong\u003eComparable Peers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kingdom Hearts II manga (Direct sequel, same artist), .hack\/\/Legend of the Twilight (Game-to-manga adaptation peer)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSeries Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJapanese Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e スリー ファイブ エイト デイズ オーバー ツー (Three Five Eight Days Over Two) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnglish Title:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kingdom Hearts 358\/2 Days \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStory \u0026amp; Art:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shiro Amano \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal Publisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Square Enix (Monthly Shōnen Gangan \/ Gangan Comics) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnglish Publisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yen Press \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Years:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2010–2012 (Japan) \/ 2013–2015 (English) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolumes:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 (Complete) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAge Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e Teen (13+) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Action, Fantasy, Adventure, Shonen\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComics \u0026amp; manga are assumed VG+ or better unless otherwise noted.
