Groblje u suvremenom Izraelu posjećuje neobičan gost. Sohei Toge, postariji gospodin iz Japana, bivši novinski dopisnik, polaže buket cvijeća na grob izvjesnog Adolfa Kamila, zaključujući zadnje poglavlje priče o tri Adolfa: Kamilu, Židovu odraslom u Kobeu u Japanu, sinu pekara; Kaufmannu, sinu jedincu njemačkog konzula namještenog u tom lučkom gradu i njegove žene Japanke; i Führeru, s kojim je dalekoistočna nacija dijelila ciljeve.

A njihova priča počinje 1936. kada Toge odlazi u Berlin izvještavati s Olimpijskih igara. U Berlinu studira i njegov brat Isao koji se želi naći s njim kako bi mu predao iznimno važne dokumente vezane za Adolfa Hitlera, o kojima može ovisiti sudbina Njemačke, ali i cijelog svijeta. Međutim, Sohei kasni na sastanak i pronalazi brata mrtvog. Da stvar bude čudnija, vlasti ne pokazuju nikakav interes za otkrivanjem krivca i ponašaju se kao da Isao nikad nije ni postojao. Sohei pokreće vlastitu istragu i otkriva da je brat tajanstvene dokumente ipak uspio poslati u Japan...

Izvorno objavljen osamdesetih godina prošlog stoljeća u nastavcima u časopisu Tjedni Bunshun, Adolf predstavlja magnum opus posljednjeg desetljeća značajne karijere majstora stripa Osamu Tezuke, autora kojeg u Japanu smatraju bogom mange.

Dr. Osamu Tezuka (手塚治虫) was a Japanese manga artist, animator, producer and medical doctor, although he never practiced medicine. Born in Osaka Prefecture, he is best known as the creator of Astro Boy and Kimba the White Lion. He is often credited as the "Father of Anime", and is often considered the Japanese equivalent to Walt Disney, who served as a major inspiration during his formative years. His prolific output, pioneering techniques, and innovative redefinitions of genres earned him such titles as "the father of manga" and "the God of Manga."

Uzbudljivo, dramatično, brzopleto i napeto.
U nekim trenutcima predvidljivo, ali nije zamjerivo.
Volio bih pročitati ostala dva nastavka.

Meh.

Honestly, I do not think I will like Osamu Tezuka's horror works. Hitler conspiracy theories are boring to me, but I hoped it would be interesting. Also, again, rape and murder during sex fantasies. If it is in multiple books, it is a pattern, and it is nothing I would like to see.

I read both books in one go (it is massive, but luckily there is not that much text to read) and will share this surface level review for both. I really don't want to get to the nitty-gritty because I did that with another book, and it came down to boring, don't like the style or story.

Dinamičnim crtežom ispričana priča trojice Adolfa u osvit II svijetskog rata. Priča se odvija u Njemačkoj i Japanu i kroz priču o ubojstvu i tajnim dokumentima oslikava atmosferu paranoje i masovne histerije pod militarističkom diktaturom gdje domovina predstavlja alibi za sve vrste zločina.
