Left-wing manga!(?) (hexbear.net)
submitted 2 years ago by Salmarez@hexbear.net to c/anime@hexbear.net

What are your left wing manga/anime recommendations? I only got Ninpu Kamui Gaiden, because it is communist and ninjaic? You may shrug you shoulders, but a communist created all the ninja cliches, like a dude named Sasuke and the "Izuna Drop"! Unfortunately, the manga is from 1969, when the United States still had not erased all left-wing presence in Japan.

I found this great list, though I don't think I've read any of these myself: https://myanimelist.net/stacks/2128

I've read that Ashita no Joe was particularly influential and is on my list of manga to read soon. There's also Capital - In Manga! Which is supposed to be a summary of the ideas presented in Capital.

Ashita no Joe was actually written by a conservative. It's class conscious though.
