New Manga Release: ATM Uncle's popularity never stops in a different world!
Actually, there is some very interesting news for all the manga lovers out today. Volume 1 of ATM Uncle's popularity never stops in a different world! has finally been released on March 6th. This work is originally based on the story by Lin Dal-young and is beautifully illustrated by the talented Choi Min-ji. It is being published under Kill Time Communication's Valkyrie Comics, and it is already catching a lot of eyes due to its very unique and relatable premise. Honestly, many fans feel that why ATM Man Reincarnated: Oasis for Girls is a must-read manga experience is because it touches on very deep themes of being overworked and undervalued in a fantasy setting.
The story follows the life of Daichi Fumita, who was just a normal middle-aged man in his previous life. But his life was very sad, because everyone around him—his wife, his daughter, and even his own subordinates at work—treated him like nothing more than a walking ATM machine. He was just providing money for everyone but getting absolutely no respect or love in return. Eventually, he died quite tragically after a life of constant struggle, which is really heart-breaking to read about in the beginning chapters. It makes you feel very sorry for the poor man.
A Second Chance with a Very Powerful Twist
Because he worked so hard for the sake of others in his first life, even though they didn't appreciate him, a Goddess decides to give him a proper second chance. Daichi Fumita is reincarnated into a completely different world and is granted a very special skill called Support. Usually, this skill is reserved for those who have spent their entire lives being selfless and working for the benefit of others. However, the problem starts because his support skill is just way too strong. It is so powerful that it actually confuses the people around him and even puts him in some dangerous situations because everyone wants such a strong power for themselves.
- Daichi Fumita: The protagonist who was treated like an "ATM" in his past life and now holds incredible support powers.
- Meltina: A female regular at Daichi’s pub who finds herself in a very difficult situation.
- The Goddess: The divine being who recognized Daichi's hard work and arranged his reincarnation.
- Support Skill: An overly strong ability that allows Daichi to boost others, but it is so intense that it causes confusion.
Why This Manga Is Gaining So Much Popularity
Deciding that he has had enough of trouble and being used by people, Daichi decides to hide his true identity and his powers. He starts living a decent and quiet life as a pub owner in this new world. He just wants to live peacefully without anyone making demands of him again. But, as we know in these kinds of stories, trouble always finds the hero sooner or later. He becomes quite popular as a kind-hearted pub owner who listens to everyone's problems. It is here that he meets Meltina, who is a regular at his shop. When he finds out she is in a big pinch, his old habits of helping others kick in, and he decides to use his support skills to help her out properly.
The reason why ATM Man Reincarnated: Oasis for Girls is a must-read manga experience is actually the emotional character development of Daichi. Watching a middle-aged "uncle" who was used by his family finally find a place where he is genuinely appreciated for who he is is very satisfying. The art style by Choi Min-ji is also very clean and brings the fantasy world to life. Even though it is an Isekai, it feels a bit different because it focuses more on emotional support and helping people in need rather than just fighting monsters with a sword. It is a very refreshing take on the genre that you should definitely check out.
