水滸伝
"Water Margin" has been translated into many languages. The book was translated into Manchu as Möllendorff: Sui hū bithe. Japanese translations date back to at least 1757, when the first volume of an early "Suikoden" ("Water Margin" rendered in Japanese) was printed. Other early adaptations include Takebe Ayakari's 1773 "Japanese Water Margin" ("Honcho suikoden"), the 1783 "Women's Water Margin" ("Onna suikoden"), and Santō Kyōden's 1801 "Chushingura Water Margin" ("Chushingura suikoden").
