The aura of craziness emanating from the Arakawa river bank keeps luring in those who want to fly their own freak flag, including, of all people, Rec’s secretary Shimazaki. As the day of the launch to Venus, Nino’s home planet, draws ever closer, everyone must make their preparations and say farewell to those who are earth-bound. Will the rocket, filled with the hopes of its crew, be able to make the interplanetary journey…?

Praise for Arakawa Under the Bridge 5

"Arakawa Under the Bridge... will appeal to virtually any manga reader. Funny, bizarre, and over-the-top, it's a page-turner of a series. As the neighborhood slowly expands throughout this volume, future volumes promise a bigger little "town" and more hilarity to come." -Anime News Network
