About Bartender
Bartender started as a manga series written by Araki Joh and illustrated by Kenji Nagatomo. It was first serialized in Shueisha’s seinen magazine Super Jump from 2004 to 2011. Shueisha has collected twenty-one tankōbon volumes. It was later adapted into an 11-episode anime series aired on Fuji Television. It was also adapted into a Japanese TV drama in 2011 that aired on TV Asahi.
A Blu-ray Disch was released by Shout! Factory and Anime Limited in January 2021. They describe the series as:
Situated in the Ginza district of Tokyo is the Eden Hall, a quiet bar that few people manage to come across. It is run by the legendary bartender Ryu Sasakura, a genius at mixing the right drink for the right customer. Throughout his period at Eden Hall, customers from all walks of life, carrying all sorts of burdens, arrive for a godly glass at the Hall and a kind word with Ryu, both of which assist in clearing their problems up and reviving them for another go at life.
