This award-winning classic story focuses on Marlee, an agent of the space empire sent on a mission to track down the opera singer Eroccus. There are three intertwining narratives which span planets and hurl the readers back 30,000 years in time. The narrative takes place in a non-linear fashion, unfolding across space and time, before folding back upon itself at its culmination.

Note: Winner of the Seiun Award in 1983.

Note 2: Gin no Sankaku was not serialized in a manga magazine. Based on content, it could be considered either seinen or josei.
