BECAUSE I AM HERE Climbing is all I have. I climb. Photographer Fukamachi is visiting Habu's home when the felon Mohan turns up demanding the missing Kodak. But he is foiled by his previous captor who shoots and wounds him. Habu returns and admits that he took the camera from Mallory's body but that he found no film. He releases the camera to Fukamachi's charge on the understanding that he can only use it AFTER Habu completes his solo climb of Everest's South West face in winter without oxygen! But Fukamachi is going with him!! Taniguchi's realistic art and Baku's tireless script will take you to such heights as mountaineers can only dream of.
