Friend's True Identity in 20th Century Boys

Friend from 20th Century Boys is often regarded as one of the greatest manga antagonists of all time. Yet to this day, a shocking number of people do not understand the truth behind his character. For a long time, many were under the impression that two different people took on the role of Friend — the first being Fukubei and the second being Katsumata. But this is completely and utterly false. We were fooled. In 2016, Naoki Urasawa released the Perfect Edition of 20th Century Boys and 21st Century Boys, wherein its final chapter would unveil a shocking twist surrounding his identity — that this whole time, Friend was only just Katsumata. When the Perfect Edition's ending was finally translated in 2021, many were quick to dismiss its reveal as a retcon or as the Perfect Edition being in a separate continuity due to having trouble reconciling it with previous content in the manga. But in truth, the series' final reveal surrounding Friend's identity was unambiguously always Urasawa's intention. The man himself confirmed as much in an interview in 2018. This video details the foreshadowing for Friend's true identity and also debunks various common misconceptions surrounding various plot points throughout the story. Here's a link to the video interview in which Urasawa confirmed that the Perfect Edition's reveal was always his intent: https://fod.fujitv.co.jp/title/2232/2...
