Yang shang, a little boy, threw himself at the hungry tiger in order to save his mother's life. The tiger was so impressed, or baffled, or both, that he retreated to eat somewhere else.

About this publication :
Visipix.com proudly presents the first integral
facsimile reproduction of the mangas in the internet.
Hokusais "landscape format pictures" were cut and printed
on two adjacent pages as separate "portrait format pictures".

Visipix has reconstructed the full pictures and has
adjusted and liberally doctored non-fitting graphics at the seams.
We publish both, the half-pages and the full-pages.
As far as we know, you are now the first persons in history
who can enjoy all the full-page mangas the way Hokusai
would have liked people to see them.
Visipix.com presents its own new English translation
of all texts and titles and the interpretation of
many stories told by the pictures.
A complete edition, probably early Meiji period, right
after the publication of the 15th volume from
Hannes Kellers collection was scanned. The volumes 4 and 5 from
another edition were published earlier by visipix, but at that time not in
facsimile quality.
