noun
epic; epic work; heroic narrative
Refers to an epic as a large-scale narrative work or genre; in Japanese it is most natural in contexts such as literature, film, games, and media discussion rather than as a casual adjective meaning 'amazing.'

This novel is read as an epic depicting the history of a family.
彼は古代ローマを舞台にしたエピック映画を撮った。
