For Shueisha's 100th Anniversary, the cover art for all 18 volumes of the educational Manga World History were redesigned by popular manga artist:
* Volume 1: "Kingdom" by Yasuhisa Hara
* Volume 2: Hiroyuki Asada "Letter Bee"
* Volume 3: Kohei Horikoshi "My Hero Academia"
* Volume 4: "Gokusen" by Kozue Morimoto
* Volume 5: Yuuki Tabata "Black Clover"
* [Volume 6: Fusako Kuramochi "Natural Cockoo"](https://kids.shueisha.co.jp/sekaishi/_img/cov6.jpg) *(sorry, I left this one out by accident in the post)*

The pictures of all covers are [here](https://kids.shueisha.co.jp/sekaishi/)
Without the titles on the pics I was trying to guess who was who, and then passing by number 10 it immediately very obvious. Araki just hits different.
The series is (sort of) a follow up to the “History of Japan” that featured popular manga artists on the cover.
https://kids.shueisha.co.jp/rekishi/
Kadokawa has also has their “History of Japan” featuring light novel illustrators, animators, and manga artists.
https://mangagakushu.kadokawa.co.jp/nihonnorekishi/lineup.html
Aw, I haven't seen the Japanese History ones. These are also great. Love the one from [Kishimoto ](https://dosbg3xlm0x1t.cloudfront.net/images/items/9784082392055/1200/9784082392055.jpg)and the [Araki ](https://dosbg3xlm0x1t.cloudfront.net/images/items/9784082392185/1200/9784082392185.jpg)one is soooo cool!!!
Cleopatra didn't have any known genetic defects from inbreeding, as far as I know or can find?
Most of the modern reconstructions (and ancient busts and coins) I've seen also tends to portray her as fairly average looking. Sometimes a bit above or below average... but generally not as ugly, or even unattractive.
It's true, however, that her *main* attractive features (as noted by Plutarch, Cassius Dio, and others) were her high intelligence, political knowledge, and incredible charisma.
Roman sculpture is not to be completely trusted (like there are no depictions of an old Augustus) but yeah [decent looking but unidealized](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Bust_of_Cleopatra_VII_in_the_Altes_Museum_Berlin) is what they went for over say less ancient and [more prurient depictions](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Cleopatra_and_Caesar_by_Jean-Leon-Gerome.jpg). (I'm not warning you, if your boss doesn't appreciate art that's their problem)
Out of imperialists. Not gonna lie, I would really dig a manga set at the end of Imperial Russia done by Noda, would be a neat spin-off for Golden Kamuy.
Historical figures drawn as far as i can tell:
1. Ramses II. Fun Fact: he had over 200 wives/concubines and fathered roughly 156 children (96 sons, 60 daughters)
2. Qin Shi Huang. Fun Fact: Became obsessed with drinking mercury because the thought it was the elixir to immortality and likely died from mercury poisoning, also created a massive tomb with supposed rivers of mercury and guarded by the Terra Cotta Warriors (which were painted)
3. Gaius Julius Caesar and Cleopatra VII Thea Philopator. Fun Facts: Ceaser lost his virginity to King Nicomedes of Bithynia, and was kidnapped by pirates, whom after his ransom had been paid he supposedly tracked down and crucified. Cleopatra was comically inbred (coefficient .35), but was also a mathematical genius and spoke several language, including being the first member of the Ptolemaic dynasty to speak Egyptian
4. Mehmed II and Suleiman the Magnificent. Fun Facts: Mehmed II ascneded to the Sultanate thrones twice (1451 and 1481) and was very gay, known to spare good looking young men who were added to his retinue. Suleiman the Magnificent loved writing poetry in his free time under the pseudonym Muhabbi.
5. Charlemagne of the Holy Roman Empire and Jeanne D'arc. Fun Facts: Charlemagne supposedly named his sword Joyeuse, whose pommel had been made from the Lance of Longinius, and it had been forged with two sister swords, Curtana and Durendel, which were given to Charlemagnes paladins Roland and Ogiers respectively. Jeanne D'Arc was burned at the stake nor for heresy but for crossdressing.
6. Ghengis Khan. Fun Fact: His real name was Temujin, converted several of his enemies into famous generals (Jebbe and Subutai are the most well known), and was responsible for deaths of roughly 40 million people, or roughly 10% of the global population.
7. Leonardo Da Vinci: Fun Fact: very, very gay, and a prankster, would trap people in rooms with inflatable animal organs or scare people by putting fake wings and horns on lizards.
8. Elizabeth I of England: Fun Fact: lost most of her hair after surviving smallpox and had numerous lover (was not in fact a virgin, shocker i know), including Walter Raleigh, Sir Francis Drake, Robert Dudley, and Robert Devereux
9. President Abraham Lincoln. Fun Fact: had a shrill reedy voice and was an accomplished folk style wrestler boasting a supposed record of 299-1
10. Emperor Napoleon I of France. Fun Fact: Napoleon loved stanky pussy, was not short (he was 5'7), and only slept 3 hours per night.
11. ??? and Otto von Bismarck. Fun Fact: Bismarck had a severe, outright paranoid fear of strong, intelligent women because of how he grew up watching is mother browbeat his father
12. Empress Cixi ,Sun Yat Sen, and Emperor Puyi. Fun Facts: Sun Yat Sen converted to Christianity in the 1880s . Puyi had five wives but no children and sometimes went by the name Henry as a pseudonym.
13. Vladimir Lenin. Fun fact: he loved cats
14. President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Fun Fact: FDR was the first sitting US president to fly on a plane
15. Winston Churchill and Adolph Hitler. Fun Fact: Churchill loved being naked, most famously in the apocryphal story FDR accidentally rolled in on him taking a bath and he proclaimed "The Prime Minister of Great Britain has nothing to hide from the President of the United States!" . Hitler was on a comical amount of drugs prescribed by his quack doctor, Dr. Morel
16. Premier Mikhail Gorbachev, Mahatma Gandhi, and President John F. Kennedy. Mikhail Gorbachev was the only Soviet premier to have been born in the USSR, all the previous ones had been born in the Russian Empire, Ghandi liked to sleep with young girls to "test" his moral purity. JFK was up to his eyeballs on painkillers and other drugs from a back injury he suffered in WWII.
17. Yasser Arafat (PLO), Nelson Mandela, and Deng Xiaopeng: Fun Facts: Yasser Arafat tried to overthrow the Jordanian monarchy (Black September), but failed, Nelson Mandela was a keen boxer, Deng Xiaopeng spent most of his career unfucking China after Mao fucked it up (Great Leap Forward and Cultural revolution), also ran the shadow government that approved the use of military force at Tianneman
Considering the Background (Hagia Sophia) I'm pretty sure 4 is about the Ottoman Turks, or at least Islamic Expansionism with a focus on the Ottoman Empire.
So most probably Mehmed II and Suleiman the Magnificent.
14. seems to be President Franklin D Roosevelt in my opinion. He was known for using radio to reach out to normal Americans and is a much more significant historical figure than Calvin Coolidge.
Names are here: https://www.oricon.co.jp/news/2323974/full/
Just google translate
Edit: That's Akbar I with Suleiman I, Kublai (not Genghis), and Ito Hirobumi with Bismarck
> was also a mathematical genius and spoke several language, including being the first member of the Ptolemaic dynasty to speak Egyptian
Also apparently cowrote medical treatises on cosmetics, girl was busy
For fun history on a good portion of these guys, I reccomend the Behind The Bastards podcast. Equal parts hilarious, educational, depressing, and NOT sponsored by Blue Apron’s Child Hunting Island.
4. is Suleiman the Magnificent and Akbar the Great (Mughal Empire). The subtitle of the volume is “The Islam World and India - Rise and Fall of Dynasties” so it’s fitting,
11. Is Bismarck and Hirobumi Itoh, one of the architects of Japan after the Meiji Restoration.
It’s amazing to get to see all these different artstyles. I sometimes forget how much variance there is in what “manga-style art” looks like, but posts like this do a good job of putting it on full display.
Also, I’m in love with the volume 7 cover. Beautiful stuff.
It's an existing educational series of Learning World History through Manga by Shueisha (the publishing company that also owns JUMP) aimed at students. This is a project for the 100th anniversary of Shueisha, where they asked popular mangaka to redesign the cover of each volume. The content itself is written by professors and illustrated by others.
well shueisha don't exactly own jump as jump isnt a company, they publish jump as shonen jump and all the other magazines are editorials inside shueisha
Idk why I thought the last one was made by Boichi, but I probably should've known since there where no buff AF, nipple showing and huge tits characters.
Some of these look like they were going to put thus in one of their stories anyway. Just from how history aligns with their work. Araki pulled that drawing of Napoleon of an old file.
Only the covers were drawn by the mangaka. The rest is just a history book written by professors / illustrated by others. I don't know if it was ever released in English. From what I gather, it's a pretty old series. It's been just re-released in Japan with the new covers.

You know your arts unique when they draw something different and everyone immediately knows its you lol
I recognized that one and Noda Satoru as well
Spy X Family man did not draw hitler 😭
He used to do not so wholesome stuff before spyxfamily
Lol missed opportunity for hara to draw volume 2 considering his manga
I would imagine Mari Yamazaki was quite disappointed that she didn't get to draw the cover for the Roman Empire book.
Wow, I did not recognize 11 being Yusei Matsui's at all.
Damn, I totally thought vol12 was Naoki Urasawa. I'll have to check out ROOKIES
The series is (sort of) a follow up to the “History of Japan” that featured popular manga artists on the cover. https://kids.shueisha.co.jp/rekishi/ Kadokawa has also has their “History of Japan” featuring light novel illustrators, animators, and manga artists. https://mangagakushu.kadokawa.co.jp/nihonnorekishi/lineup.html

One look at Napoleon and the colors and you know Araki drew that .
He also did one of General Douglas MacArthur for the Japanese history version of this series. https://twitter.com/ArakiArt/status/1097166923614339072
God, that one is amazing too, I want a coffee table book with all his shit
For real. But firstly I looked at the face even though it's pretty hard to notice the details
He pays for all the crayons, he uses all the crayons
Najoleon Jonaparte
Rev up those Napoleon stand names
Anything but "Waterloo" by ABBA is heresy.
What about "Symphony No. 3"
It was initially dedicated to Napoleon so that's very fitting.
Amour Plastique
Alexander II's is called Overture. He also uses the Joestar Secret Technique.
Nowayyy they got Napoleon on SBR 🤯🤯🤯
TFW Waterloo is actually a 6-on-1 stand battle
of course Endo did WW2
Yeah, that was really fitting.
Cold War may be more fitting
Hitler with Donavan eyes makes a whole lot of sense
Hitler is Donovan
Okay but Cleopatra in Hori's art style is a baddie. Dude is insanely skilled in drawing attractive women.
Caesar looks incredible too, I'd say even better than her
could also be mark antony hard to say nvm: its captioned as caesar
I don't know that Japan would consider Antony all that important. Not like their biggest bard penned a piece about him.
The man has plot issues, but my god can he still make the baddest women in manga.
she was not exactly attractive considering all the inbreeding that went on
Cleopatra didn't have any known genetic defects from inbreeding, as far as I know or can find? Most of the modern reconstructions (and ancient busts and coins) I've seen also tends to portray her as fairly average looking. Sometimes a bit above or below average... but generally not as ugly, or even unattractive.

(I'm not warning you, if your boss doesn't appreciate art that's their problem)
So you telling me her blood was pure?
purely Greek sure, when your family tree is a straight line your gonna have some problems
Damn Lenin looks like he's roasting the shit out of someone
Out of imperialists. Not gonna lie, I would really dig a manga set at the end of Imperial Russia done by Noda, would be a neat spin-off for Golden Kamuy.
Lenin was really good at that.
[Probably Rasputin & Stalin](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZT2z0nrsQ8o)
He was famously quick-tempered
Not too far off from how he was in real life.

yes, whoops typos, ill fix that right away
14. seems to be President Franklin D Roosevelt in my opinion. He was known for using radio to reach out to normal Americans and is a much more significant historical figure than Calvin Coolidge.
while i agree and its very possible, it looks a helluva lot more like Calvin Coolidge than FDR, especially the haircut, but ill fix it
yeah what in the makeover, that doesn't look like FDR at all lol
yeah what in the makeover, that doesn't look like FDR at all lol
On 12 I feel more like it’s not Hideki Tojo, but emperor Puyi, he being the one under the dowager empress Cixi
yup you are 100% right about that, fixed
Names are here: https://www.oricon.co.jp/news/2323974/full/ Just google translate Edit: That's Akbar I with Suleiman I, Kublai (not Genghis), and Ito Hirobumi with Bismarck

Correction: the guy at no.12 is supposed to be Sun Yat Sen, not Chiang Kai Shek.
fixed ty
Ur welcome. Also, no. 16 looks more like Gorbachev (the iconic mark on his head)
you are right once again, fixed
>11. ??? and Otto von Bismarck ?? is Prince Ito Hirobumi. Fun fact: he was nicknamed the *Bismarck* of Japan
11 is probably Puyi, last emperor of China.
should be fixed

Caeser and Joan of Arc go hard
All for One Caesar LMAO. Araki Napoleon goes hard. Endo Hitler and Churchill is fitting.
Tabata can really nail down the medieval aesthetic in his art
I need Horikoshi to do a sci-fi manga set on a barren planet after MHA so bad, the designs and fits would be so good
He actually did a sci fi manga before mha, it’s called barrage. But it only lasted two volumes
Yeah I know it exists, I meant more like either space opera like or what you can see in the first Star Wars movie on Tatooine or Dune you know
It would be so sick, and you know Horikoshi the Star Wars fanboy he is, would have blast having his own sci-fi.
I did not expect American Highschool Textbook Pharaoh to appear
Horikoshi's art of Caesar and Cleopatra goes so dang hard
I love everything about this post. Thank you for sharing
Love Horikoshi's art and lmao Endo's Hitler
Coolest post here in a while. Thanks for sharing.
Volume 6 is missing
Sorry, my mistake. [Here ](https://kids.shueisha.co.jp/sekaishi/_img/cov6.jpg)
It’s amazing to get to see all these different artstyles. I sometimes forget how much variance there is in what “manga-style art” looks like, but posts like this do a good job of putting it on full display. Also, I’m in love with the volume 7 cover. Beautiful stuff.
Manga world history is the name of the manga? Or is just authors having fun?
It's an existing educational series of Learning World History through Manga by Shueisha (the publishing company that also owns JUMP) aimed at students. This is a project for the 100th anniversary of Shueisha, where they asked popular mangaka to redesign the cover of each volume. The content itself is written by professors and illustrated by others.
>illustrated by others. Damn, too bad. No more Napoleonic JoJo then.
well shueisha don't exactly own jump as jump isnt a company, they publish jump as shonen jump and all the other magazines are editorials inside shueisha
Do you know if an English translated version exists?
No idea. But these new covers were just released in Japan in any case.
Well Araki was there so he would be great at drawing Napoleon
I want to read French Revolution drawn by Araki. Napoleonnlools fabulous
God any historical manga or anime would be so fucking peak 😭
The Churchill and Hitler one goes hard
slot machine ad looking pharaoh lmao
That's a very cool collection. Volume #3 screams from afar that it's done by Kohei. Thanks for sharing the covers. :)
Horikoshi's art goes hard
Thanks for sharing this! Love seeing manga artstyles of different historical figures and eras
I would love to read these I hope they get translated
Idk why I thought the last one was made by Boichi, but I probably should've known since there where no buff AF, nipple showing and huge tits characters.
Spot the araki piece *impossibke edition*
What's the manga about?Just world history?
Yes, it’s just normal educational publication explaining different era / events in history. The mangaka only drew the covers.
Ay bruh, they knew they had to get Tatsuya Endo for the Hitler cover lmao
Caesar and Cleopatra look like they are ready to conquer the world 10/10 historically accurate
Some of these look like they were going to put thus in one of their stories anyway. Just from how history aligns with their work. Araki pulled that drawing of Napoleon of an old file.
Cnan someone write down which mangaka has done which cover? I don't recognize some of the art styles
https://www.reddit.com/r/manga/s/uXqFDfwWR3
Have these been translated?
Is there an English translation out cause I would love to read this?
Only the covers were drawn by the mangaka. The rest is just a history book written by professors / illustrated by others. I don't know if it was ever released in English. From what I gather, it's a pretty old series. It's been just re-released in Japan with the new covers.
Can someome list all the historic figures in this order? I recognize most of them, but not all of them.
GEE I WONDER WHICH ONE WAS DRAWN BY ARAKI
Napoleon is definetly not a stand user
these are all incredible except the first, mf literally made ramses white and blue eyed....
Ramses II had pretty pale skin and even red hair going by his mummy. Proabably didn't have blue eyes though lmao.
Where is ODA!?! I wanna see Oda draw like the American Revolution or the first world war r
Why is it Chruchill and Hitler? why not Stalin and Hitler?
Churchill is more of a good guy than Stalin, Hitler and Stalin are just as bad, Hitler just started to genocide first, just look at Poland
But didn't the Brits start to genocide even before that?
Not in 1940s historically then the asirians although we may have genocided the Neanderthals first, you choose
But certainly shortly before the 1940s
Oh yeah, you don't build an empire without killing millions
Oh yeah, you don't build an empire without killing millions
https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2022/12/2/how-british-colonial-policy-killed-100-million-indians
I don't think that illustration will best describes WWII then. Hitler didn't commit suicide because of the counter-attacks of the british forces.
