Tôsei Suikoden
(A Modern Suikoden, 当盛水滸伝)
1829
This
three-volume series is based on stories from the semi-historical Chinese
novel, Suikoden (Shuihu zhuan in Chinese). It tells of the adventures of a band of 108
rebels who sought refuge in the margins of Liangshan Marsh. These rebel warriors sought to protect the
poor and downtrodden, very much like Robin Hood’s band. Each
page is approximately 8¾ by 61/3 inches or 22 by 16 cm,
a size known as hanshi-bon. |
