Overview

A historical manga by Makoto Yukimura set in the Viking Age of Northern Europe, widely regarded as one of the finest historical manga ever created. It follows Thorfinn's transformative journey from a revenge-driven boy warrior to a man seeking to create Vinland, a land without war or slavery.

Praised for its meticulous historical research on Viking-era Scandinavia and Britain, and its deeply compelling character development, it won the Kodansha Manga Award.

A landmark historical manga by Riyoko Ikeda set in pre-revolutionary France at the Palace of Versailles. It follows Oscar Francois de Jarjayes, a woman raised as a man to serve as commander of the Royal Guard, alongside the tragic Marie Antoinette. Since its 1972 serialization, it revolutionized the shojo manga genre by introducing complex political narratives, gender fluidity themes, and historical drama to a female readership. The Takarazuka Revue's stage adaptation became one of their most legendary and frequently revived productions, running for decades. The series achieved enormous popularity in France, Italy, and across Europe, making it one of the earliest Japanese manga to gain significant international recognition outside Asia.
