Samurai Chef is an action comedy story with a lot of food. It all begins as a simple cooking competition, but becomes something else when the food is turned into food monsters and begin to fight back!

The second volume picks up immediately where the first left off and sees the Samurai Chef continue to battle his way through a series of dishes cooked up by a series of Elite Chefs. This Kickstarter will be both volume 1 and volume 2 packed into a single print edition.

Produced in collaboration with by UK artist Pinali, mayamada are creating a new style of western manga where YOU are the publisher.

The Samurai Chef book combines elements from western and eastern comic making, features an anthropomorphic cast of characters and is set in a fantasy television world.

mayamada have already run a successful fundraising campaign for volume 1 and will combine volume 1 and 2 into a single 150-page comic printed on high quality paper with a beautiful 300GSM silk stock cover and a perfect bound spine.
