Let's break that taboo.
Possibly the greatest one ever made. A man naming himself "Friend" starts a sect that quickly grows beyond everyone's control and hides a dangerous agenda. A shopkeeper realises Friend uses references, stories and ideas that only he and his group of childhood friends know... Who is Friend and what does he want ?
The story of Miyamoto Musashi, most influencial swordsman in Japan's history, told and drawn by Inoue. Starts as a pretty standard samurai seinen then turns into the spiritual journey of a man who wants to end the circle of violence.
From the same author as 20th century boys. A story that postulates there is an evil force at work behind every major event of history. VERY well researched and interesting, there's the assassination of JFK and a memorable conversation where Hitler asks Einstein about time travel to get accepted into art school (IIRC).
Please keep the thread civil and serious. I'm not gonna give you links for where to read them but if you have fingers and know how to use google it shouldn't be too hard.
Just give those a try... Please ?
