Manga Mavericks announced the October 2025 release of First Time in Taiwan: A Delicious Adventure for foodie and manga fans.
Told through the visage of cute animal avatars, this delicious manga travelogue follows the journey of a mangaka and friends as they explore Taiwan via both illustrations and photography. Readers can pull up a chair and enjoy the deliciousness in this release without the need to worry about calories!
“To have this opportunity to have my manga translated into English and read outside of Japan is a huge honor,” said Muta Yuki in a press release from Manga Mavericks. “I drew this manga as an experience of traveling through Taiwan and eating tasty foods from the point of view of a Japanese person. I took special care to depict the individuality of the staff I met on my travels as well. I’d be incredibly happy if this manga can convey to readers the slightly mysterious but alluring vibe of Taiwan’s foods, but the most important thing is that you have a good time reading it!”
The book has a $7.99 cover price, and arrives on October 22, 2025.
