Otomo Katsuhiso's Apple Paradise


Who is Otomo Katsuhiso and what is apple paradise?

The hell if I know. But it has soething to do with a hippo walking upright like a man. Is it post-surrealism? is it anime? manga? Otomo also lent his sweat and ink to the much more famed Akira series. His themes are post-apocalyptic and dark. His world is a future Japan as a post-nuclear totalitarian state. It is said this came as a result of his exposure to the French author Mebius.

i can find nothing about this online written in english. If you do know, feel free to enlighten me.
