The first volume was published in 2005 and there have been 10 volumes published in Japan so far. The series is currently ongoing in Morning. One of Souryo's other works, Eternal Sabbath, was also serialized by the same magazine.

In creating Cesare, Souryo has collaborated with a Dante scholar to bring to life a vivid portrait of Renaissance Italy in great and accurate detail.

Cesare is about the life of one of history's most enigmatic figures, Cesare Borgia, an during the Renaissance Italy. The manga takes an intimate look at Cesare's life during his matriculation at the University of Pisa, at the age of 15, in the years preceding his appointment as a cardinal of the Holy See.

Cesare Borgia: Installed at Pisa by his father Rodrigo Borgia, a cardinal, purportedly to earn his doctorate in theology. However, it is soon made obvious that Cesare's presence in Pisa is engineered by his father in order to support the rise of the Borgia family in power and the impending ascension of Rodrigo Borgia to the papacy.
