The Day When ... The day when happiness is there (Volume 6)

A "feel-good" comic full of optimism! Clémentine and Sacha, Chantal, Guillaume and Naori... they all meet at Antoine's for a weekend. They bring with them their worries, their daily baggage, unable to enjoy the present moment and the beauty of the surrounding nature.

Like the reassembled pieces of a bowl using the Japanese kintsugi technique, they will gather for a great conversation about happiness.

What is happiness, how do we find it? This is the question we all ask ourselves.

So, like our characters, let's take a moment, breathe, and let ourselves be inspired...

📖 Review from Librairie du Grimoire Ancien

By our editorial and librarian committee

Beka and Marko continue their sensitive and poetic exploration of major existential questions with this sixth volume of Le Jour où... Published by Bamboo, this feel-good series establishes itself as a true personal development tool in comic book form, combining graphic narrative and everyday philosophy.

What makes this volume so strong is its ability to address the quest for happiness with both depth and lightness. The metaphor of kintsugi — the Japanese art of repairing broken bowls with gold — runs throughout the story: like these reassembled pieces, the characters gather for a great conversation that repairs and beautifies their wounds.

The weekend at Antoine's becomes a sacred space for pause and reconnection: with oneself, with others, with nature, with the present moment. Beka and Marko excel at showing how our "daily baggage" prevents us from seeing the beauty around us, and how a simple shared conversation can open doors to more serenity.

We recommend this volume and the entire series to readers seeking meaning, personal development enthusiasts, and anyone looking for inspiring and soothing reads. A comic that invites us to pause, breathe, and contemplate what truly brings happiness.

Our rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — A feel-good comic that combines the philosophy of happiness and the poetry of everyday life with rare accuracy.
