Why?

Anime finished: November 20, 2020
Manga finished: February 01, 1988
... But we could not confirm the source content in MangaUpdates.

Synopsis
Hi no Tori, or Phoenix, is an anthology series that explores the cyclical nature of humanity's ambitions and follies throughout history.
Each arc focuses on a different era, from the dawn of civilization to a far-flung future, with the immortal Phoenix acting as a silent observer.
The overarching theme revolves around humanity's relentless pursuit of power, justice, and freedom, and the consequences of these desires across various time periods.
Each story, while self-contained, contributes to a larger tapestry illustrating the recurring patterns of human behavior and the enduring impact of our choices.
Essentially, it's a philosophical exploration of human nature as witnessed by an immortal being throughout time.
