A chronological selection of the most important works of Osamu Tezuka, a timeless influential figure on the medium and one of the greatest artists of all time.

These entries are listed keeping in mind its historical relevance, their context in Tezuka's life, and their overall influence on the mangascape. I believe the following titles would help you understand more about his style, life, and contribution to Japanese media. It is not comprehensive and should be treated as a jumping point for such a colorful career.

Most of these titles are available in English.

Tragedy is a genre of drama based on human suffering and, mainly, the terrible or sorrowful events that befall a main character. In these manga, the Protagonist experiences trauma from war or apocalyptic-like scenarios. These deal with realistic portrayals of the mental and physical effects war has left many lives with as well as those whom are ripped from their lives and may never return again...

This series of interest stacks is a list of mangas & light novels that have been or are being licensed and published in Argentina. This DOES NOT include imported physicals originally released in other territories, only manga licensed for the Argentine market. Novels, Manhwa and Manhua are included, however, manga-style non-asian releases are not mentioned here. Any manga missing on MAL will be noted in each stack's description, or in particular entries related to them.

The manga are in alphabetical order according to the title they were published under in Argentina, and not according to their original title. Each modified title is noted under each manga. Most of these can be bought online, although there are discontinued manga which can no longer be found unless bought second-hand.

These interest stacks will be updated (semi-)regularly and should always be considered to be incomplete. Please, message me if there's any entry missing, and/or if any info is wrong or missing. Due to MAL's 50-items limit on interest stacks, the entire list spans multiple stacks, some of which are continuations of the same letter.

Manga not on MAL:
- Attack on Titan Anthology (Attack on Titan Antología) (OVNI Press)

List of all the manga published in Brazil by the publisher Veneta, in order of release.

Lista de todos os mangás publicados no Brasil pela editora Veneta, em ordem de lançamento.

I've put together a list of manga written by Tezuka Osamu, that was officially licensed and released in physical or digital format in the English language (mostly from North American releases). Tezuka's works in English are a mix of titles still being printed and circulated, and out of print. There are a varity of editions from comic book 'floppies', softback, hardbacks, and even boxed collections! This is a fan guide to figure out if the copies you are reading or buying are from legitimate sources.

This list is NOT complete, I'm merely one person and have probably missed a title or two.

Notes about Publisher's: Vertical Inc. was acquired by Kodansha USA in 2011, and fully absorbed in 2020. Any titles that were licensed to Vertical Inc. are currently distributed digitally via Kodansha USA with infrequent reprintings.

Digital Manga Publishing (DMP), and Digital Manga Guild Publishing/Publication (DMGP) are two branches of the same company as far as I am aware. DMP tends to be physical copies, DMGP is digital copies. Physical copies are sold via their website eManga, and Amazon. Digital copies can be found on eManga, via the following statement:

"eManga is Digital Manga, Inc.'s own one stop online shop for manga, originally established back in 2008. Providing manga both digitally (in a variety of downloadable formats) and physically, in 2018, eManga merged with DMI's print store - Akadot - to house everything in one place". [taken from eManga's website]

NOT LISTED IN DATABASE
+"Shakespeare Manga Theater", Ablaze Manga, 2024.
Stories included: The Merchant of Venice, Robio and Robiette from Astro Boy, Macbeth from Vampires, Hamlet from Rainbow Parakeet, The Taming of the Shrew from Rainbow Parakeet, Othello from Rainbow Parakeet. As well as essays, afterword commentary and more.
Digital version on Azuki: https://www.azuki.co/series/shakespeare-manga-theatre

TITLES THAT WILL BE ADDED IN A VOLUME TWO:

-Vampires, 2024 select chapters via "Shakespeare Manga Theater".
-Rainbow Parakeet, 2024 selection chapters via "Shakespeare Manga Theater".

If you have more information on titles available to add to this list, please shoot me a DM and I'll add it accordingly. The more information you can provide, links, dates, etc the better off we as collectors will be!
