Gaki No Tsukai #1154 () — Hamada’s 50th Birthday (Part 1)

Tanaka told a story of how in his ealry days in Gaki he had been struggling to make a living, and couldn’t even afford to replace his “favourite“ and now highly worn-out shoes. Hamada had then offered him 20 000 yen to buy some new ones, which Tanaka accepted slighty reluctantly. Afterwards Hamada wouldn’t even accept back the change, insisting that Tanaka use it instead to eat something good.
