Has anyone read this before? Ive seen it many times in many stores before but I never really read it till yesterday when I picked it up at the lybrary. Vol 1 is very sad, has nothing really to do with Buddha but the side characters story is very emotional.

EDIT- Its a manga made by none other then the father of Anime and Manga, Osamu Tezuka! Click Here For More Info (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/manga.php?id=3569)
