I read a manga that is a must-read for Apple Watch users
It was so relatable that it was amazing.
Hello.
This is Kekozero.
I started wearing an Apple Watch in January 2020.
I wanted wireless earphones at the end of 2019, so I bought AirPods Pro, and that's when I started getting interested in the Apple Watch.
I saw my uncle, who loves Apple products, wearing one at a family gathering after the New Year, and after worrying about it for a few days, I decided to order one.
Since it arrived on January 7th, I haven't spent a single day without wearing it.
It has been 2 years and 9 months since I became an Apple Watch user.
By now, it has become an indispensable part of my life, as if it were a part of my body.
There are too many convenient features to list, and I've become so used to life with an Apple Watch that I can't even think of any inconveniences.
Last night, I discovered a gag manga based on the Apple Watch.
It's called 'The Hitman Can't Resist the Smartwatch'.
So, this time I'd like to introduce this manga.
I read the first chapter as a preview and it was so hilarious that I immediately bought the first volume.
The Hitman Can't Resist the Smartwatch
Cross River City, where villains run rampant...
There lives a legendary man called the 'Grim Reaper' who makes everyone tremble—Hitman X!
The only one who can make this cruel and cold-blooded reaper listen is his partner, the smartwatch!?
Everything is for the sake of achieving his goals! Kill, run, and go on a rampage in this lawless city!!
A bullet-riddled smartwatch gag action series is here!!
It's a gag manga where the protagonist, 'Hitman X', is pushed around by his smartwatch.
As you can see from the cover, the smartwatch in the title is clearly an Apple Watch.
I found these Apple Watch relatable moments to be incredibly empathetic and funny.
Two years ago, when I started wearing an Apple Watch, I didn't see many people wearing smartwatches when I went out.
That said, I rarely went out, so maybe I just didn't see them at the right time.
Now, I see them everywhere.
If I go out into the city, I see multiple people wearing Apple Watches.
I guess that's how widespread they've become.
Until recently, I was pretty much the only one using the Apple Watch's Mobile Suica to ride trains and buses, so I had to twist my upper body to tap it because I wear it on my left wrist.
But now, I see it almost every time I go through a train ticket gate.
People twisting their bodies just like me.
There are definitely more people using Apple Watches than before.
I'd like to say 'as expected of Apple', but 'The Hitman Can't Resist the Smartwatch' is so full of relatable Apple Watch user moments that it makes me burst out laughing.
The collected volume was released about two weeks ago, so it's quite recent.
I didn't know it existed until then, but I wish I had known about it sooner.
It was a fantastic manga.
That was my introduction to the manga 'The Hitman Can't Resist the Smartwatch'.
It's a highly recommended gag manga that is guaranteed to make any Apple Watch user burst out laughing.
It was so funny that I read it all in one go.
See you next time.
