[Machine Translation] The "Diary of the Absurd" is one of Hideo Azuma's best-known works. This is the first "complete edition" including the works written after the publication of "Fujoriri Nikki (Diary of the Absurd)". The "Diary of Absurdity Tatsushihen" published in 1978 in "Bessatsu Kaisotengai SF Manga Daizenshu part2" was a unique work in which Hideo Agatsuma's diary was parodied as a science fiction novel. Hideo Agatsuma's challenge drew in science fiction fans, science fiction enthusiasts, and science fiction readers to explore the original source material. In addition, "Absurd Diary" was serialized in "Gekiga Alice," and manga and science fiction fans from all over Japan roamed the streets in search of magazine vending machines. This work, which was so popular for its abundant SF parodies woven into what appeared to be a diary-style manga essay, won the 1978 Nebula Award for Comic Art, the oldest and most prestigious SF award in Japan, beating out its rivals "Confucius: A Tale of Darkness" and "To Earth". This is not only one of Hideo Agatsuma's best-known works, but also one of the leading figures in absurdist gag manga, and is being reprinted in a new, complete edition!
