Bakuman

Watch Bakuman (2015) online on iFILM — a Japanese comedy-drama directed by Hitoshi Ohne, starring Takeru Sato and Ryunosuke Kamiki. An adaptation of the manga by Tsugumi Ohba and Takeshi Obata, the team behind Death Note.

Moritaka can draw, but his uncle — a manga artist — worked himself to death, and Moritaka has no intention of repeating that. Then his classmate Akito finds his sketchbook and makes a pitch: they create manga together and aim for Weekly Shonen Jump. The stakes turn personal fast. Moritaka's crush, Miho Azuki, promises to voice the lead character if their work gets an anime adaptation — and she'll marry him, but not before both of them have made it. Stream Bakuman on iFILM.
