What is The Samurai Chef? “The Samurai Chef is the first printed manga title from mayamada; An original anime inspired brand based in London. We’re putting together the 50 page, perfect bound book which tells the first part of the Samurai Chef: a cooking show where the chef judges food by attacking dishes with his sword! Contesting teams begin to figure out ways to defend their meals against tough judgement and the situation quickly become very competitive between the contestants and the Samurai Chef!” Why should we pick this up? “Mayamada characters come from their own fantasy television world of shows. Think Looney Tunes meets Shonen Jump meets Japanese TV. This means every character has a story that fits into one of the fantasy shows on the network. The Samurai Chef is a fantastic manga title with a lot of humor and plenty food based action suitable for all ages. Fans of anthropomorphic characters in chef uniforms will also be well served.”
