Amo las obras de Taniguchi, pero Furari me ha parecido aburrido en algunos puntos
fushigimini's review against another edition
1.0
Je pense que ce n'est pas du tout mon truc ... Trop poétique pour moi, je n'ai pas réussi à voir autre chose qu'un japonais qui se promène... Même si certaines planches nous apprennent des trucs sur l'époque où se déroule le récit.

Soy muy fan de Taniguchi aunque en esta ocasión no disfrute tanto de esta obra, aunque he aprendido cosas y siempre tiene cosas muy aprovechable nunca defrauda, a pesar de que no cumpla al 100 por 100.

Actual rating: 3.5 stars
Ugh, I honestly feel bad about this rating because Taniguchi really is a master at his craft, but I base my ratings off of personal enjoyment and this isn't 100% my cup of tea. It's quite beautiful, but a bit too leisurely for my tastes.
I read another review that said Taniguchu is the best at depicting the wonderfully mundane and that is so accurate. Much like The Walking Man, Furari follows a gentleman who finds much joy in walking and enjoying the simple pleasures of the world around him. It's almost meditative but very accessible.
Recommended, but if you're a reader who wants ample character development, you won't find that here - the focus really is on glimpses of the MC's day-to-day.

A retired man in historical Japan takes up the hobby of map making. He walks throughout Edo counting his steps. Furari is a subtle, beautiful, and poetic graphic novel filled with impressive line work and masterful use of screen tone. While some aspects of the historical setting and poetry were lost on me, I still am very glad to have read this. (Thanks for the gift, Zach!)

Bellissimo.
Avevo già adorato L'uomo che cammina, e questo, dalla trama molto simile ma nella cornice di Edo, mi è piaciuto ancora di più.
Ennesimo capolavoro del compianto maestro.
