Ode to Kirihito was awesome. It had great a great storyline, art, and dialogue. It was the complete package. I never thought too much of manga before. But this book definitely makes me realize that no matter what medium of art, there are a few greats that give it a good name and make it worth to check out.
Tezuka creates many intricate plots that follow different characters besides the protagonist. All the plots occur simultaneously and help the story develop and add extra suspense.
The book is really a cinematic experience that unfolds like a Tarantino movie on steroids. The brutality of some of the scenes that occur in the book are masterfully contrasted with the meticulous and beautifully drawn landscapes of Japan.
