Notes:

Now, I'm going to list these in order and, I s--- you not, these are all real mangas.

You can check out the source and see their entire bibliography.

It's completely insane!

Mangas on display:

The Quran:

Yes, the Quran. Mohammed appears four times in the book and considering no Shi'ites have burned down the studio, they must have come up with a good way around that particular issue.

Das Kapital

So this was brought up last time and the way they go about turning this into a manga is by having it from the perspective of an owner of a cheese factory who feels guilty about the way he's exploiting his workers.

Check the source, I'm not making that up.

War and Peace:

Admittedly, turning War and Peace into a comic is a pretty smart idea, since it makes it much less of a slog than the original 1225 page novel is.

Thus Spoke Zarathustra:

Thus Spoke Zarathustra is the novel that expands upon Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of the Übermensch, the cyclical nature of the world and how man has to strip himself of his attachments in the world in order to ascend to godhood.

It is also the novel from which the phrase "God is Dead" is derived.

On The Origin of Species

On The Origin of Species is a work of scientific literature by Charles Darwin that is considered to be the foundation of evolutionary biology.

Like all scientific literature, it's a very, very dry read, so hopefully they managed to make it somewhat more bearable for the casual reader.
