The “Missing Pieces” series, which allows readers to compare the first magazine publications with Osamu Tezuka's own revised tankoubon editions, has previously had releases of Black Jack and Mitsume ga Tooru, both of which received great acclaim. This time, as part of the series, we present Hi no Tori: Missing Pieces - Boukyou-hen compiling the "Boukyou (Nostalgia)" arc of Hi no Tori—which underwent particularly extensive revisions—and its related work, the “Hagoromo (Robe of Feathers)” arc. The “Boukyou” arc and the related “Hagoromo” arc, revised three times over the years, show astonishingly bold alterations—from minor details like dialogue changes, character deletions, and art style revisions, to major structural overhauls—revealing Osamu Tezuka's relentless creative drive. Experience this historic endeavor up close. (Source: Rittorsha, translated)
