Souten KouroSouten Kouro's plot is loosely based on the events taking place in the Three Kingdoms Period of China during the life of the last Eastern Han Dynasty Chancellor, Cao Cao (155 – March 15, 220), who also serves as the main character. The Three Kingdoms Period has been a common theme in Japanese manga for decades, but on many aspects, Souten Kouro varies significantly from most of the others.
One significant difference is its highly positive depiction of its main character, Cao Cao, who is usually the villain not only in Japanese manga, but also in most novel versions of the Three Kingdoms period, including Luo Guanzhong's original version of the 14th century, Romance of the Three Kingdoms.Another important distinction from others is that the plot mainly uses the era's original historical account, Chen Shou's Records of Three Kingdoms, as a guide instead of the Three Kingdoms novel's aforementioned Romance.
Through this, Liu Bei, the typical Romance hero of the Three Kingdoms, assumes comparatively less importance throughout the tale and is presented in a less optimistic light.But, in addition, many elements of the story are based on the novel version, including the use of its original characters such as Diao Chan, as well as anachronistic weapons such as Guan Yu's Green Dragon Crescent Blade and Zhang Fei's Viper Blade. A recurring theme throughout the story is the constant urge of Cao Cao to tear China and its citizens away from their old structures and ways of thinking....2 SongsSouten Kouro -
