Osamu Tezuka character directory

Review(0)

Categories:Creators' Artworks

Many characters appear in Osamu Tezuka's works. It is natural that each work has a main character and supporting characters, but Tezuka used the characters he created as actors and decided on the cast for each work. Based on Hollywood's "star system," a character who is the main character in one work may appear as an antagonist or supporting character in another. This book introduces character sheets from representative Tezuka works as well as famous scenes from the plays. Introducing representative characters in the style of a talent directory with a list of their "participants''. In addition, there is a corner where you can see all the characters that appeared in major works from his early years to his later years that were not included in the star system, and mascot characters created by Tezuka for companies and organizations, and other valuable materials that are being shown for the first time. In addition, it is the only work that bears the name of the famous supporting character "Hige Oyaji'' (real name: Shunsaku Ban), who appeared in many works, and includes all episodes of "Shunsaku Ban Makari Toru'', which has been said to be a phantom work that has been included in the book version until now. In addition, we have included a wealth of valuable drawings that cannot be seen anywhere else, such as unpublished manuscripts and names.
