The Finding Nemo Manga, as others in the PopTokyo series, follows the story of the movie quite strict, so it is more of a re-watch than an addition to the movie. For me, it was a nice way to brush up Finding Nemo in time for Finding Dory, the sequel.

At the start there is some extra information on the different characters, but otherwise, expect the movie is manga-form, the art style also resembles that of the movie.

Nice for fans of Finding Nemo and Pixar!

What a great retelling of the Disney story Finding Nemo. I loved that they introduced the characters and explained about them before beginning the story. The illustrations were based on the Disney movie, not a traditional Manga illustrations, but the book was written in the Manga style (reading from the back). Children will enjoy this story, and if they never saw the original movie, this will give them an introduction to the characters before they go and watch the sequel "Finding Dory".

Marlin is an overprotective father with a son named Nemo. Nemo ends up getting captured and put in a fish tank in a dentist's office. Marlin heads off to find his son and after losing his wife, nothing will stop him from finding Nemo. He's joined on his journey by Dory, a blue tang fish who has short term memory problem, along with many other memorable characters along the way. This book teaches about friendship, loyalty, perseverence, and trust.

The illustrations are wonderful but unfortunately, they are in black and white. They could have been spectacular with colour added to them. The book is still great with the illustrations in B & W.
