The Way of the Househusband Volume 1 story and art by Kousuke Oono
A man know as "The Immortal Dragon" in the Yakuza has left organized crime and now lives his life as a househusband. He still wears the intimidating black clothes of a tough guy but has an apron with a cute cat on it. He makes breakfast and packs lunches. He cleans house, even using new technology. He shops for groceries and whatever else he and his wife need. Occasional run-ins with old associates don't tempt him to return to his old ways. He is committed to his new life even as he uses his old skills to deal with everyday people (including his wife).
As one might guess from the description, this manga is a comedy with some action thrown in. The writing is fun and the juxtaposition of his Yakuza grit to his new lifestyle is fun. I will definitely read more.
Recommended.
