Lockdown Zone: Level X, Chapter 8

Masakazu Ishiguro was born in Fukui Prefecture in 1977. An multiple award winning artist, he broke though in 200 when we was presented with the Afternoon Four Seasons Award for his work on the short "HERO". 

While he broke through within the sci-fi genre, Ishiguro is possibly best known for his comedies; particularly the Japan Media Arts Award winning AND YES THE TOWN MOVES (Shonen Gahosha). Whimsical, stylish, and often surreal, Ishiguro's works are often put into their own genre - SF (Slightly Fantastical).

what was once Tokyo for heaven. But after searching for so long, maybe
