Silver Spoon Vol. 1 — Manga Raw / Buy Official

Burned out from the pressure of a competitive prep school, Yugo Hachiken enrolls at Ooezo Agricultural High School for one reason only: it has dorms far from home. A city kid, he knows nothing of dairy farming or crops. He gets lost chasing a calf, is stunned by how eggs are laid, and struggles with the brutal early mornings and physical labor. Yet as he bonds with classmates like Aki Mikage and Komaba, and with the animals themselves, he begins to confront the true weight of eating living things. Hiromu Arakawa of Fullmetal Alchemist draws on her own farm upbringing for this earthy coming-of-age tale.
