Seamlessly mixing secret agent-type action with slice-of-life vignettes and fish-out-of-water comedy, "Shimazaki in the Land of Peace" is the charming alternate history political thriller you never knew you were dying to read. Utterly unique, with stunning artwork, this hit series promises to keep the thrills and surprises coming even as it warms even the coldest heart. Shingo Shimazaki was kidnapped as a boy by the LEL, an international terrorist organization who turned him into an elite covert operative in their war against the international community. After thirty years, he has finally escaped their clutches and returned to his native Japan. All he wants now is to live in peace...but what will happen when his past catches up to him? The acclaimed, action-packed slice-of-life adventure begins here!

Critical Reviews
"Balancing action-packed fights and slice-of-life story can be difficult. But when it's done well, it's amazing. Stories like the aforementioned The Fable and Sakamoto Days, as well as SPY x FAMILY and Kill Blue, are masters of this. And so is Shimazaki in the Land of Peace." - Kara Dennison, Otaku USA
