One Hundred Tales Reviews

"Tezuka spins a supernatural yarn with One Hundred Tales. Manga today wouldnt be what it is without Tezuka, so its always nice to see more of his work translated." --OTAKU USA


"Laundering the most macabre fable of faithless ruin into a parable of romantic fulfillment - not a bad trick. For anyone else this would stand as a defining masterpiece, for Tezuka this was four months in 1971. Another chip off the endless mountain. My goodness, but this Tezuka fellow certainly knew a few things!"--THE COMICS JOURNAL


"Throughout the book, the work has a certain warmth; Tezuka comes across as a good friend who knows how to comfort, entertain, and make merry. It is quite a peculiar feeling that goes beyond wholesomeness with such comfortable familiarity in how Tezuka captivates his audience."- Asian Movie Pulse


"A beautifully illustrated, one-of-a-kind period story about sacrifices and second chances, showcasing Tezuka's classic style and sense of humor.Inspired by Faust, this fable reinterprets the events into a lively and humorous tale, weaving in Japanese culture and history for a unique twist. While some references may be lost on younger readers, long-time fans will appreciate Tezuka's recognizable art style, random cameos, and nods to pop culture icons. The English release of One Hundred Talesfrom Osamu Tezukaand Ablaze Mangais a must-read for manga fans." --Screenrant


"Osamu Tezukas One Hundred Talesis a masterful rendition of the oldFausttale, done only in the trademark way in which Tezuka is capable. Its equal parts funny and sad, and it leaves us with an ending that is both uplifting a wistful. Tezukas masterful storytelling breathes a different life into an old tale, and it was wonderful to be able to finally read it. Highly recommended." - Fandom Post


One Hundred Tales cements why the godfather of manga was such a beloved creator and influence to so many." - Asian Movie Pulse
