A Japanese man, who once worked as a journalist despite his age, made an unexpected visit to a cemetery in present-day Israel. Holding a bouquet of flowers, he reverently laid them upon the grave of Adolf Kamil, one of the three Adolfs in a compelling tale. Kamil, a Jewish individual who had grown up in Kobe, Japan, was born to a baker. On the other hand, Kaufmann was the offspring of a German consul and his Japanese wife who resided in the same port city. The two men were brought together by the infamous leader with whom their nation had formed an alliance. In 1986, this story received the 10th Kodansha Manga Award for general manga, attesting to its enduring relevance.
