From June 2021, it is being transferred to Kadokawa’s Aokishi Magazine.
In 2012, Otoyomegatari won the Prix Intergénérations (“Intergenerational Award”) at the second-largest comic festival in Europe, and in addition to that, in 2014, the Seventh Manga Taisho Award. But first, let’s learn more about the story of the manga, A Bride’s Story, and its character before jumping into the release date of Chapter 104.
What Is Otoyomegatari (A Bride’s Story) All About?
While reading this fantastic manga, you might notice that this series jumps around between multiple characters, chronicling the everyday life of different brides and their families throughout other parts of Central Asia near the Caspian Sea. However, the story primarily follows Amir Halgal, a 20-year-old woman whose family arranged for her to marry a 12-year-old boy named Karluk Eihon in order to cement an alliance between their families.
Amir is from a nomadic tribe, with her community focusing on hunting and hurting. So adjusting to her new family and their customs in this settled community is difficult at first. Yet, she quickly impresses everyone with her many skills and talents, including hunting with a bow, cooking, sewing, embroidery, and her general good nature and friendly disposition.
The first couple of volumes of Otoyomegatari mainly focuses on the day-to-day living of Amir, Karluk, and their families. Still, as you progress through the volumes, readers get to follow a new character, Henry Smith, an ambitious, dorky, traveling European scholar who stays with Karluk and Amir’s family as a guest. By the end of the second volume, Mr. Smith sets off to explore other regions, their communities, customs, and culture. Therefore, allowing readers to witness the rule and nomadic life of other brides along the road. Throughout it all, though, Karluk and Amir continue to be the main couple in the series.
Amir and Karluk are interesting separately and as a couple. Amir is sort of depicted as a perfect wife. Usually, girls are married by the age of 14 to 15, and because Amir is an older Bride, she won’t be able to have as many children. Personality-wise, Amir is vibrant, caring, strong-willed, and highly independent, which was uncommon for women in the time period. She is not without her flaws, though, as her caring nature often makes her worry too much, especially regarding Karluk.
As for Karlik, he is very mature for his age and has proven himself to be a courageous and determined young man throughout the story. Because Amir is a remarkable individual, very self-sufficient, and can easily care for herself, Karluk constantly compares himself to her and truly admires her. Karluk wants to become a man worthy of Amir. Their romance is so sweet, pure, and adorable, and watching these characters develop and grow is truly fascinating.
