I'm still HOOKED! Osamu Tezuka is a master of manga, indeed! Can't wait to read the next volumes.

greeniezona's review against another edition
4.0
This volume is almost entirely comprised of pain and misery. The two main story arcs are Tatta becoming a warrior to fight the giant, Yatala, to settle the dispute between Magadha & Kosala (which just can't end well), and the story of Buddha's time in Deer Park, where he runs into Dhepa with a group of monks also undergoing ordeals (this can't end well, either.)
Story is still amazing, art is still fantastic, this segment of the plot is a little painful, can't wait for the next one!
