The Climber (Kokou no Hito) is a breathtaking and emotionally powerful manga that follows Mori Buntarou, a solitary and troubled young man who finds meaning in the extreme, unforgiving world of free solo climbing and mountaineering.

This isn’t just a sports manga—it’s a profound journey into the human psyche, filled with beautiful yet terrifying mountain landscapes, psychological struggle, and philosophical reflection. With realistic, intense artwork by Shin-ichi Sakamoto, The Climber stands as one of the most unique and introspective seinen titles ever made.
