I was planning to start from the original but that seems to be very difficult to find. So here are my first impressions on Princess knight first chapter "Once upon a Time" Not much happens on this first episode that we aren't aware by the synopsis. It did surprise me that a manga from the fifties used the word misogyny, i know it shouldn't the treatment of gender issues is one on the reasons I'm reading this but I remember reading mangas from the 90's and 2000's than didn't want to called things by their names, it could be because the translation it's from 2011 and that wasn't a problem japan had but us. However it was a pleasant surprise non the less. The style/vibe besides being very clearly Tezuka's, makes a great job at giving the sensation of it being a fairy-tale or a Disney princess movie. Funny thing I notice besides the colours "human" Tink is dress exactly as the Argentinian character Pantriste or at least very similar. Overall, nothing but good things in this chapter, for me at least. I curious to see where the story goes. |

@Red3103 yes, but I am (or at least I try to be) a bit of a completionist, so my ideal form of expiriencing media is to do it fully and in order. That isn't always posible and I'm okay with that. However I did wish it was a little eisier to find |

Revising art/scenes for old manga is different from reserialization. Tezuka grew a lot in 10 years as an manga artist. To note: Twin Knight is a sequel to 53 version, but it doesn't really fit as a sequel to the 63 version do to the changes in the cast of characters. |
