Celebrating 20 years since its Japanese debut, experience the iconic saga that inspired the hit anime and films. In a world where magic powers giant mechs, the Un-sorcerer Rygart Arrow finds an ancient weapon and changes destiny forever. Celebrating two decades since its Japanese debut, Broken Blade Vol. 1 launches readers into a legendary mecha epic that laid the groundwork for an acclaimed anime film hexalogy and a fan-favorite TV adaptation. In a kingdom where magic shapes every battlefield and machines of war tower over the land, Rygart Arrow, one of the few who cannot use magic, uncovers a powerful ancient Golem only he can pilot. As tensions erupt into full-scale invasion, Rygart's journey blends political intrigue, explosive mecha combat, and emotional depth with breathtaking visuals and immersive worldbuilding. This first volume reintroduces the genre-defining story from creator Yunosuke Yoshinaga, whose masterful blend of action, fantasy, and strategy has captivated fans for over 20 years. With its enduring legacy cemented through animated films and TV adaptations, Broken Blade remains a cornerstone of action and mecha manga. Perfect for fans of intense sci-fi, magical warfare, and tactical battles, this anniversary edition is ideal for long-time followers and newcomers alike. A cornerstone of any collector's shelf, Broken Blade Vol. 1 is where legend begins.
