The Three-Eyed One (Original Version) Complete Collection 4

Commemorating the 90th Anniversary of Tezuka Osamu's Birth: Limited First Edition Special Edition A Great Discovery! Volume 4 will include, for the first time, a truly "unseen" manuscript never used during serialization (planned)!!

Master Tezuka Osamu's wildly popular work, "The Three-Eyed One," is being published for the first time in its entirety, in the style of its original magazine serialization, including a large number of "unseen" pages (over 200 pages in total)! Discover the original charm of Sharaku and Wato!

◆Serialized for a long time in "Weekly Shonen Magazine" from 1974-78, this smash hit, along with "Black Jack" from the same period, marked the "complete resurgence of Tezuka Sensei" in the late 1970s. This masterpiece of adventure entertainment was later adapted into a TV anime. ◆ This work, in which the prince of the three-eyed tribe, Sharaku Hosuke, and his beautiful classmate, Wato, take on various supernatural phenomena and mysteries, underwent extensive revisions by Tezuka himself when it was published in book form. The bibliography also became complicated when the order of the stories was rearranged, resulting in some short stories not being included. The original form of the series has long been shrouded in mystery since its magazine debut. And now--- the entire series is presented in a large B5 format for the first time, featuring all color pages and frontispieces, with the episode order and pagination faithfully reproduced to the original magazine appearance. Furthermore, over 200 pages of extremely rare, "unknown" pages never before published in book form are included for the first time in all eight volumes!! The massive, 3,200-page original magazine version is available to read in its entirety only through this series!! ◆ In order to maintain image quality, this time, rather than focusing on reprints from the magazine, the original manuscripts are used as the base, meticulously collaged together surviving, unpublished manuscripts and uncut, unpasteurized pieces. This volume is produced using a new method of restoring only lost sections from the original print, preserving Tezuka's elegant pen strokes. Additionally, the cover illustrations for each issue are included within the main story in their original B5 size, and the back of the volume includes a gallery and illustrations of the magazine cover illustrations and various frontispieces. Made with high-quality, fade-resistant paper, this is the book fans have been waiting for: the original appearance of "The Three-Eyed One." Using this new method, this miraculous project will uncover the "unprecedented charm of The Three-Eyed One"! Don't miss this first edition, a completely limited edition!
