Phoenix
Hi no Tori
Across human history—from ancient times to the space age—one myth persists unchanged: the Phoenix, an immortal bird whose blood supposedly grants eternal life or wisdom. This radiant creature watches over humanity's development and ensures the survival of intelligent life throughout the universe. But humans are creatures of habit. We're driven by emotions—joy, sorrow, anger, love—that shape everything we do. Meanwhile, certain beliefs and agendas keep cropping up across centuries, constantly threatening to upset the world's natural balance. Fate, it seems, has a lot of variables and an odd sense of humor about how it plays out. Note: The series remains incomplete due to Tezuka's death.
