Dynamite Graffiti
review
Synopsis
Akira Suei was born and raised in a rural town in Okayama where there are no buses, and at the age of 7 he experiences the shocking death of his mother. A mother suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis and abandoned by doctors hugs her neighbor's only son in the mountains, ignites dynamite, and explodes! I committed suicide. Suei then moved to Tokyo, worked as a cabaret signboard painter and illustrator, and then worked for a small erotic magazine publisher. As editor-in-chief, he launches a new type of erotic magazine. During his days of struggle, he met Nobuyoshi Araki, and other great artists such as Shinbo Minami, Genpei Akasegawa, and Kozaburo Arashiyama gathered around Suei. Repeatedly being banned and launched, he released numerous magazines into the world, including ``Weekend Super'' and the later legendary ``Photo Jidai.''
