Capture Rasputin The Patriot 1, 憂国のラスプーチン 1 Yuukoku No Rasupūchin 1 Translated By Junji Ito Script

new change of pace by Junji Ito, really enjoying the political storytelling in this series, even though I don't understand or grasp the complexity of the topic fully.
the series supposedly discusses the political and international affairs of Japan and Russia, told through the POV of the MC, Yuki Mamoru, and his indictment and arrest as a traitor and diplomat of Japan.


while i never had much interest in reading about politics and historical political novels, so i have trouble following the storyline, but the manga itself is very interesting and thoughtprovoking particularly about the nature of personal relationships in an international political setting personal relationships between diplomats can either make you or break you in your career in espionage.


overall, i'll be continuing this series, since it's a breath of fresh air in terms of content and storyline for me.
it helps that i love junji ito's work, and his beautiful renderings definitely moves the story forward in ways that words can have difficulty conveying.
For the sake of the reading challenge, I'll only mark one issue as read, That was a nice break, Back to normal novels. Storia e politica a fumetti Ra ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
Ra ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on 內容很紮實就是字很多的意思介紹上寫改編自前日本外交官佐藤優的親身體驗每次知道是真人真事改編的故事我都會覺得劇情好精彩
是說伊藤潤二畫個正常人也要畫得如此可怕真不愧是恐怖漫畫家 Junji Ito.
A mi todo lo que hace este hombre me parece maravilloso, Y eso que el género de terror nunca me ha gustado este manga no lo es, Es tremendo como sabe llevar una historia por más estática que sea, y podemos decir que esta que representa la pelea entre un funcionario diplomático y un fiscal lo es a niveles supinos.


Este manga es raro, Es raro de cojones. Y en su rareza todavía estoy navegando, pero me gustan estas aguas, La tensión se mantiene ahí arriba y los dibujos vaya si ayudan ya me compré el segundo número, Y los acontecimientos diplomáticos que se describen son

de lo más interesante, no tenía ni idea de todo eso.
No quiero mirar nada todavía para no spoilearme pero me imagino que pasaron más o menos así en la realidad.
Realmente intrigante todo.

Para mí una apuesta muy notable, The Kafkaesque autobiography of a diplomat who compares himself to Rasputin, as he gets caught up in a political purge during the earlys.
A legal thriller with a dash of geopolitics, Note: Despite the title, this manga is not a chronicle of Grigori Rasputin's life,
Based on "Kokka no Wana Trap of the State", the autobiography of exdiplomat and political writer Sato Masaru, Volume: Chapter

I didn't know Junji Ito can make a good political story, At first I think it will be a dull and boring storyline, But, it is way better than that, I can feel some intensity while reading this, Junji Itō sitelink 伊藤潤二Born in Gifu Prefecture in, he was inspired from a young age by his older sisters drawing and Kazuo Umezus comics and thus took an interest in drawing horror comics himself.
Nevertheless, upon graduation he trained as a dental technician, and until the earlys he juggled his dental career with his increasingly successful hobby even after being selected as the winner of the prestigious Umezu prize for horror manga.
The most common obsessions are with beauty, long hair, and beautiful girls, especially in his Tomie and Flesh Colored Horror comic collections.

Ito's universe is also very cruel and capricious his characters often find themselves victims of malevolent unnatural circumstances for no discernible reason or punished out of proportion for minor infractions against an unknown and incomprehensible natural order.
His longest work, the three volume Uzumaki, is about a town's obsession with spirals: people become variously fascinated with, terrified of, and consumed by the countless occurrences of the spiral in nature.
Apart from the ghastly, convincingly drawn deaths, the book projects an effective atmosphere of creeping fear as the town's inhabitants become less and less human, and and bizarre things begin to happen.
Before Uzumaki, Ito was best known for Tomie, a comic series about a beautiful, teasing and eternally youthful high school girl who inspires her stricken admirers to murder each other in fits of jealous rage.
Eventually, unable to cope with her coy flirtation and their desire to possess Tomie completely, they are inevitably compelled to kill her only to discover that, regardless of the method they chose to dispose of her body, her body will always regenerate.
In, during the horror boom that followed the success of Ringu, Tomie was adapted into a movie, Since Tomie, many of his works have been adapted for TV and the cinema, sitelink.
