''Adolf'' was published in English by Cadence Books and VIZ Media . The English manga is flipped to read left to right to conform to Western practice. The story is set before World War II and is centered on three men with the name Adolf. Adolf Kamil (アドルフ・カミル) is a Jew living in Japan . His best friend Adolf Kaufmann (アドルフ・カウフマン), who, while becoming a confirmed Nazi later in the story, is of both Japanese and German descent. The third Adolf is Adolf Hitler (アドルフ・ヒトラー), the future dictator of Germany . ''Adolf'' also features Sohei Toge (峠草平 ''Tōge Sōhei''), a Japanese reporter. WAS ADOLF HITLER REALLY JEWISH? A rumor plays a central role in this story. It concerns one of the most frequently asked question about Hitler's background. During the Nuremberg Trials , testimony was given that Hitler's father was an illegitimate child of Hitler's grandmother and her Jewish employer when she lived in Graz , Austria . Simon Wiesenthal asserts that this is not true. {Link without Title} PUBLICATIONS Volumes of English translations, in order:
