Line 19:
Back in Japan, Kanzaki begins courting Ryoko in Shin's place. He also rises through the ranks of Yamato Airlines, eventually managing to acquire control from Ryoko's father through an underhanded business deal and stock purchased by proxies. Ryoko, by chance, sees a photo of Shin in a magazine and embarks on a quest to find him. Kanzaki becomes determined to either stop Ryoko or ensure Shin's death.
''Area 88'' was one of the earliest manga to be released Stateside. [[Eclipse Comics]] and [[Viz Media]] published the series as single chapters each about the size of standard comic book, but stopped after 42 chapters (perhaps a ''quarter'' of the whole series), though it continued (but was not completed) in the ''Animerica'' magazine.
Shintani started his career as an assistant to [[Leiji Matsumoto]], and the influence clearly shows in his character designs and more humourous panels.
