Never met a Japanese young person who would not read this.,
This review is from: Manga Bible Story - Japanese: Comic Book Style Bible (Japanese Edition) (Paperback)
I am glad to see this on Amazon in the US. It has been a good seller in Japan. Manga is the literature of choice for millions in Japan, from children to adults. I think I heard that half of all the books sold in Japan are in the distinctive comic book style called "manga." This book is 800 pages of black and white comic book style stories from the Bible from Genesis through the letters of St. Paul. I have never met a Japanese young person who would not read this, from children to youth to young adults. It is a great way to introduce a young person to the Bible. I always recommend it for the host parents of Japanese exchange students as a good gift to the student.

Great way in familiarizing with Bible.,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Manga Bible Story - Japanese: Comic Book Style Bible (Japanese Edition) (Paperback)
I bought this Manga Bible for my children so that they can understand more about the stories in the Bible. I read a few pages and thought they are precise and is easier to understand than just reading the Bible. And they would probably read through it than the regular Bible, hopefully.
I think this would make a great gift for new Christians who can read Japanese.
