- Title: Kojiki Explained Through Manga - Author: Yoshio Shimizu - Publisher: Kodansha What is the "Kojiki"? Considering its origins, it can be said to be the "foundation of national governance." However, as you follow the narrative of the "Kojiki," there are many stories that make you question whether it truly is the "foundation of national governance." I would like to adapt such stories into manga and, while enjoying them, explore a new way of reading the "Kojiki."
