A viral photo on Japanese social media showing a stack of old manga volumes tossed into the trash has sparked widespread debate. Among the discarded items was a full set of Phoenix (Hi no Tori) by Osamu Tezuka, the legendary creator of Astro Boy. The poster admitted they contemplated taking the collection home before ultimately leaving it behind.
The comments section erupted with mixed reactions. Some users joked that "even Buddha got thrown away," while others debated whether this was a massive missed opportunity, noting that vintage classics hold significant value for collectors.
The incident serves as a stark reminder that one person's trash can be another's treasure, leaving classic manga fans mourning the waste and asking: if you stumbled upon this, would you save it or walk away?
