The combination of of global and Japanese history with the author's life story and Japanese folklore worked amazingly well for me. The timeline gets a little confusing sometimes, but the author's use of different drawing styles and a Japanese folk character as a narrator on the page helps the reader navigate these complexities. Highly recommend! (And looking forward to reading the remaining books in the series.)
