And now, obligatory very short post (probably a question) to forcibly go back on-topic to follow right after this.

The documentary included with the Art of Osamu Tezuka book is wonderful. Here's a review: http://comicscomicsmag.com/2010/11/tezuka%E2%80%99s-secrets-of-creation.html It's also important to know that Tezuka was never satisfied with anything he did, and always aimed higher. He also saw the works of o...

Oh I loved it. Loved it all.

The first episodes present a view of how Astro could have started his life, but after that episodes could just as well be part of the manga universe and such.
