My Brother's Husband

Yaichi, a stay-at-home father in suburban Tokyo, is suddenly confronted when Mike Flanagan—his deceased twin brother Ryoji’s widower—arrives from Canada seeking connection. While Yaichi’s young daughter Kana embraces Mike immediately, Yaichi wrestles with his own unexamined biases and silences around sexuality. Over shared meals, quiet moments, and gentle teaching, they form an unexpected, healing bond that challenges cultural taboos and redefines what family can be. This Eisner Award–winning manga offers a beautifully understated meditation on grief, acceptance, and the courage to love across difference.
