        			&#x201C;In [Showa], legendary manga artist Mizuki draws an exaggerated, hyper-cartoony version of himself amid some of the grimmest realities of 20th Century Japan, and lets that tension work a sly, revelatory magic.&#x201D; &#x2015;NPR&#x201C;Shigeru Mizuki&apos;s Showa 1939&#x2013;1944: A History of Japan [is] an unflinching history of the harsh realities of the war year&apos;s in Japan by a Japanese veteran.&#x201D; &#x2015;Publishers Weekly Spring 2014 Top Ten&#x201C;Passionate and meticulously researched (with copious explanatory footnotes and endnotes) Showa is an astounding and sweeping epic, and a must-read. It offers an indelible and engaging combination of human storyline, riveting life-and-death plot twists, historical education and passionately conveyed moral messaging on the horrors of war.&#x201D; &#x2015;Popmatters
