More about Banana Fish
Banana Fish is a manga by Akimi Yoshida. It ran from 1985 to 1994 in Bessatsu Shōjo Comic from Shogakukan and spans 19 volumes. Despite its shōjo magazine home, it is a thriller drawing on realism and noir.

At its centre is Ash Lynx, a seventeen-year-old gang leader in 1980s New York. He uncovers a conspiracy around "Banana Fish", a drug that manipulates its users. Along the way he meets Eiji Okumura, a Japanese photographer's assistant, and a close bond forms between the two.

In 2018 MAPPA adapted the story as a 24-episode anime series (directed by Hiroko Utsumi, aired on Fuji TV's Noitamina block). Here you will find figures of the two leads, manga volumes and acrylic keychains.
