Yoshitomi’s EAT-MAN manga was originally serialized in Dengeki Comic Gao! from January 1996 to July 2003. The series was collected into 19 volumes. A sequel manga, Eat-Man: The Main Dish, was later serialized in Monthly Shonen Sirius from May 2014 to June 2019.
The manga previously received two anime adaptations produced by Studio DEEN. The first series aired for 12 episodes from January 1997, while a second 12-episode series aired from October 1998. Both anime series were later released together on Blu-ray in 2018 by Discotek Media.
Discotek Media describes the story as follows:
Bolt Crank is an “explorer”–a mercenary who only accepts jobs that fit his moral standards. Even so, explorers like him are rarely trusted, and employment–both in getting and also doing the job–is hazardous. However, despite the fact Bolt says it’s the only job he’s any good at, he’s also the best explorer around. Moreover, he has a unique ability. He’s able to eat anything at all, and later can reproduce it wholly intact and functional! As an enigmatic man of few words, it’s hard to understand someone who can do something so strange, whose only skill involves taking dangerous jobs for money, and who despite it all, just wants to be normal. In a mysterious world of advanced technology and weird science, it seems that some things never change.
