New manga from the creator of Emanon. Moshi-Moshi Momo works from home like many people-in a den crowded with books and papers, shared with a cat that's got its own agenda. Except Momo truly does possess office space-because she lives inside a starship, and relativity means Zoom meetings need half an hour just to ask a question! In the year 3019, humanity has gotten even more work casual: most of the time, Momo doesn't bother to wear her captain's uniform-or anything at all-onboard the cargo vessel Blue Chateau, as she struggles against interstellar tedium, company directives, low battery strength, and her ever-underfoot cat John. But fear not, for equipped with plenty of reading material and a crate of peach liqueur, in the long haul past Proxima Centauri space slacker Captain Momo will at last prove Newton correct-a body at rest will remain at rest! Presented shrink-wrapped with Mature Audiences advisory notice.

Emanon is strange even for an immortal-a person with a mind over three billion years old, her consciousness endlessly migrating from new body to new body over the entire history of life's evolution on Earth. Emanon Volume 4 tells the story of her existence in that odd decade called the 1980s, as Emanon's latest incarnation grows from a grade schooler who seeks to conceal her intelligence, to a teen trying to avoid a relationship with the superhuman classmate pursuing her, to a young adult facing the death from old age of her best friend Hikari-a mortal time-jumper whose own life has crossed that of Emanon many times in the past, and will do so again many times in the future? but who dies at last in the here and now.
