Tetsuko no Tabi is a seinen manga by Kikuchi Naoe and Yokomi Hirohiko, serialized in IKKI. The story follows a manga artist who is asked by her editor to travel with him and a travel writer on various train journeys around Japan and to illustrate the experience in manga form. The twist is that the work is strictly non‑fiction, the author actually completed all the trips, and the manga faithfully records what happened without embellishment. A small disclaimer at the beginning reads, “This is non‑fiction, so I apologize for the lack of drama,” and the narrative largely consists of scenes of trains, platforms, and the routine of traveling. The travel writer turns out to be an enthusiastic train aficionado with extensive knowledge of Japan’s rail system.
