Nobunaga Oda

This new line of Edu-Manga* features Astro Boy, one of Japan's most popular icons among children who journeys alongside the reader. He provides for kids not only a history lesson but also a richer understanding of the life lessons these historical figures share with us. The Japanese warrior Nobunaga Oda overthrew the Ashikaga shogunate and ended a long period of internal strife by uniting half of Japan's provinces under his rule. In so doing he paved the way for the reunification of the country under the Tokugawa shogunate in the following century. *Note: Edu-Manga is a term coined in Japan which means Educational Manga.
