Hmmm, when laid out like this, the Shiji feels kind of unfair. The great Guan Zhong, one of the most important people in the Zhou era, got one chapter while Wu Zixu, who is mostly famous for the whipping a dead body incident, got three (and his ghost got one more).
Oh. Well, that's a tad bit disappointing. But makes sense too. making a comic on all 130 chapters would be near impossible.
It would be nice though. If someone did that. But with a twist, like in The Ravages of Time.
I've liked all of Mitsuteru sensei's work. The historical ones. I'll give this a read too.
Thanks Hox and KidCongo
I believe I'll add some tags and genres to this.
It's not the entire Shiji. The manga only adapts the more interesting accounts of famous people, wars, and events narrated in the Shiji.
Whoa!!!!! Wait Wait Wait..... is this the entire Shiji???? Or is it just the life of Sima Qian??? I haven't read this work yet, and I'd like to know more before reading. I hate quitting something half way through.
Whoa....
mangaupdates says its 15 volumes so...
Wait... is this just one chapter long or is the manga really going to cover the full 130 volumes of the Shiji? (This chapter is actually vol. 130)
