Volume 7 - 1st printing. "Bones into Dust!"
Story and art by Keiji Nakazawa.
Cartoonist Keiji Nakazawa was seven years old and living in Hiroshima in the early days of August 1945 when the city was destroyed by an atomic bomb. Starting a few months before that event, the ten-volume Barefoot Gen saga shows life in Japan after years of war and privations, as seen through the eyes of seven-year-old Gen Nakaoka. Gen has grown old enough to think about the legacy of the victims of the atomic bombing. Gen searches for a printer willing to publish an eyewitness account of the bombing written by "Papa," the journalist who serves as a father figure to Gen's war orphan friends. By hook and crook Gen and Ryuta manage to get the book printed and distributed, only to arouse the wrath of U.S. Army censors, who teach them a hard lesson about the politics of memory.
Meanwhile, Gen's brother Koji returns home at last, only to find that their mother is on her deathbed.

People just can't keep their hands off Dark Schneider - their sword-wielding, knife-toting, deadly assassin's hands, that is. Leaving the besieged kingdom of Metallicana, the mighty wizard goes traveling alone with only Lars the dragon for company - but finds himself under constant attack as his former lover Arshes Nei, now one of the leaders of the Dark Army of Chaos, sends her strongest underlings to kill him! Will it be Kai Harn, the fighter? Or will death come in the form of the Vampire Di-Amon? At the worst possible time, Dark Schneider turns back into his helpless alter ego, the pathologically wimpy Lucien Renlen...and Yoko, his teenage stepsister, may be the only one who can save him!
