I like Guilty Gear, and I love Osamu Tezuka. Why not draw my favorite characters in his style?

NEWS: Tezuka productions has unveiled a new product line of premium sofubi figures, with the first two being Atom and Rock. Both figures are directly based on manga panels, with Atom being based on a panel from Ambassador Atom and Rock being based on a panel from Vampires. Preorders for these figures will open on December 5th and are set to release sometime in January 2025.

I’m just not a fan of how i’ve written it, but i still think the ship is cute. So maybe i’ll write a one shot fic with ed and hyakki idk, stay tuned.

Obviously the Tezuka manga that’s the most relevant to the magical girl genre is Princess Knight (リボンの騎士), but I also think of Angel’s Hill (エンゼルの丘).

How about I start the side blog with this post? If you are a fan of Osamu Tezuka you must know that he was friends with one of the greatest Brazilian comic artists, Mauricio de Sousa.

I didn't see anywhere other than Brazilian sources commenting on this.

A few years ago MSP (Mauricio de Sousa Produções) was going to finish a story about the Amazon rainforest that Tezuka was writing but with his passing the manga is incomplete, but MSP never touched in the subject since, the project will probably never be completed, I believe it is in limbo.

The only project with the Amazon rainforest that actually happened is the crossover between Turma da Mônica and the Tezuka characters.

The editions I have:

Black Jack by Osamu Tezuka was first serialized November 19th, 1973 in the Weekly Shonen Champion. It was supposed to be a short-lived little last hurrah for Tezuka, but ended up running for 10 more years and becoming one of the best selling manga of all time.

I am urging you now, fans of Black Jack, Tezuka, and everyone else reading this to please donate to the Palestinian Red Crescent.

The manga follows the titular character, Black Jack, a Byronic figure and the world's best surgeon - who happens to be unlicensed. The manga is largely episodic, and each episode often offers a lesson or leaves the viewer with a moral question. Others shed more light on Black Jack's past and personality.

Black Jack is known for charging exorbitant fees, often asking his clients how much they're willing to pay for their life, their health, and that of their loved ones. He uses some of this money to fund his revenge on those who allowed for his mother to be killed by unexploded ordinance, and for himself to be gravely injured in the same blast.

As of November 2023, fifty years later, more than twice the tonnage of what was dropped on Hiroshima, Japan, has fallen on Gaza, Palestine, at the hands of Israel, and the USA, and all the world governments who lie silent and complicit. There have been direct attacks on hospitals, including the now infamous raid on Al-Shifa hospital, which resulted in the death of premature babies, among many others.

I am urging you now, fans of Black Jack, Tezuka, and everyone else reading this to please donate to the Palestinian Red Crescent, whose doctors, EMTs, and other staff put their lives on the line every single day, often themselves becoming martyrs in this historic struggle. Thank you.

Between 2021 and 2023 I drew Dororo 332 times and Hyakkimaru 318 times (more or less)

Maybe I am, indeed, insane

Astro boy reboot, oh boy

So news of the new Astro boy reboot series broke out like WILD FIRE and as I predicted the fandom that has been waiting so long for it is very worried of how it'll turn out

But honestly

I'm actually quite hyped for it.

They removed the Miraculous creator from working on it which is a great start in my book THANK THE HEAVENS. Secondly I don't mind Astro having a girl he has feelings for at 9 as that happened in the 80s version and it was genuinely very sweet (ya know until she was found out to be a bomb and the two had to heartbreakingly seperate by her needing to be taken apart which destroyed the fandom's hearts). And he had plenty of crushes over the years so I'm not phased by it.

The only thing I hope for is that they don't make her human, because the problem with a robot child being together with a normal human child is the fact that she can age and he can't as he is permanently stuck with the mind and body of a 9 year old, so OOOO THAT RELATIONSHIP WILL BE *BAD* IN THE LONG RUN IF THEY MAKE THE RELATIONSHIP A PERMANENT THING AND NOT TEMPORARY.

Now to talk about some other things, I am actually really excited for the plot. It's a very slept on plot on the idea that Astro has to keep his robot identity secret from others to blend in as human and sometimes not even discovering he is a robot himself till later as usually unless told or shown otherwise Astro is mistaken to be a normal human child. That idea of self discovery and finding about who you are, who can from, and who you decide to be is a core trait for Astro and I find the plot as a cool way to show that.

And speaking of which, the elephant in the room. Tobio. By the looks of the plot it makes it known that Astro is gonna have the hero name be Astro when he is fighting and will most likely be called Atom by others AND I HOPE I PRAY TEZUKA GOD OF MANGA YOU BETTER HELP HERE I HOPE that they actually keep in and address the fact that Astro/robot Tobio is a robotic replacement by a father gone mad of his 9 year old dying in a tragic car accident as it's a CORE part of his character. The implication that robot Tobio has been living as a replacement in this series and is discovering himself and who he truly is by becoming Astro would be SO COOL

Lastly, the cgi, ima be honest it looks pretty decent. I like the way it looks as we could've gotten something so much worse if it was animated like Miraculous believe me. It looks bright, cartoony and colorful which ppl associate with it causing stir for it being aimed towards kids but the original Astro boy was also aimed towards kids in that same goofy cartoon style. What made it memorable was the story, the meaning, how a goofy and silly looking manga who could hold such darkness and truth and bringing to light deep societal and human issues while dealing with the inner turmoil of a boy trying to find out who he truly is beyond what he was made for. That he isn't a replacement, that he isn't just a robot. So as long as they are able or atleast TRY to hit that mark, then that's what matters to me more than the style.

In conclusion, it's just the pitch idea mind you, just a summed up concept. Everything is subject to be changed and tweaked as things get made and processed. For all we know it could end up being something completely different. The fandom has a reason to be on edge but we should be atleast a bit more open minded towards it until we see it in action it might not be another 2003 but it's definetly no 2009. And as for the ones working on it with both Tezuka productions and the fandom holding them at gunpoint over a series we've waited nearly a decade for, that better encourage them to give out one hell of a series.

Also Tenma and Oshan better be the same divorced science dads we all know and love or I swear to god-
