Kids’ anti-drug manga in Nakano

Kids' anti-drug manga in Nakano

In the exhibit cases of the JR Nakano station underpass, this week features middle school kids’ manga of anti-drug messages. Some of the kids are pretty talented at drawing, and the local exhibit is better than most on an artistic level. Somehow, though, I am not convinced that these images will encourage kids to avoid forbidden temptations. Maybe it will give the artists and viewers some new ideas.
