Is Phoenix from Osamu Tezuka the epitome of narrative in the manga sub-world?

It could have been if it was finished, maybe.
Tezuka said it was his life's work, but then he dropped the series in 1989.

Could use a bit less furfaggotry

It would be if there were any non-shit scans of it

By the hardcover and scan it

There's literally no fur in these

What about Viz release?

Translator was still a dick.

Kill yourself.
>>143676365
That shit's too expensive.

It's already ripped. And has been for a while.

What was wrong with the translator?
>>143677103
I've heard he inserted a lot of useless narration over the artwork in order to make it more digestible in America, as well as not sticking too faithfully to the original text. I don't really mind though, I've read the series all the way through twice and it's been absolute fantastic each time.

Oh, I didn't realize. Can't say I disliked the English version though. My first impression was still pretty positive, but maybe I ought to compare it with the japanese original some day.

Isn't the Viz version the one where they translated "Custer's last stand" incorrectly because they somehow didn't recognize the reference?
