Urasawa was inspired by an 1985 documentary the NHK broadcasted about <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4rfg81_osamu-tezuka-documentary_fun">Tezuka Osamu, the God of Manga</a>.

Is there a good English edition of 20th Century Boys (especially electronic)? I just don't like the "now you own 20 tankobons" thing, even cost aside, and the library here doesn't have it.comment:www.metafilter.com,2017:site.165275-6933241Thu, 23 Feb 2017 12:35:40 -0800grobsteinBy: misozaki

I've seen all of the first season most in the second, plus there was already a third season in which the final episode featured Urasawa himself. The next round will feature Reiko Shimizu, Junji Ito, Naoki Yamamoto, and Takumi Nagayasu.
I especially liked Kazuhiro Fujita's episode, mostly because I just adore his works. Comparing the way he smears white goop all over his drawings the old-school way, and seeing someone like Inio Asano working digitally is interesting in itself. But all of these are fascinating to watch even if you aren't familiar with the artists' works. What a bunch of incredibly talented and hard-working artists!comment:www.metafilter.com,2017:site.165275-6933323Thu, 23 Feb 2017 13:17:59 -0800misozakiBy: byanyothername

¡°Why?¡± asked Larry, in his practical way. "Sergeant," admonished the Lieutenant, "you mustn't use such language to your men." "Yes," accorded Shorty; "we'll git some rations from camp by this evenin'. Cap will look out for that. Meanwhile, I'll take out two or three o' the boys on a scout into the country, to see if we can't pick up something to eat." Marvor, however, didn't seem satisfied. "The masters always speak truth," he said. "Is this what you tell me?" MRS. B.: Why are they let, then? My song is short. I am near the dead. So Albert's letter remained unanswered¡ªCaro felt that Reuben was unjust. She had grown very critical of him lately, and a smarting dislike coloured her [Pg 337]judgments. After all, it was he who had driven everybody to whatever it was that had disgraced him. He was to blame for Robert's theft, for Albert's treachery, for Richard's base dependence on the Bardons, for George's death, for Benjamin's disappearance, for Tilly's marriage, for Rose's elopement¡ªit was a heavy load, but Caro put the whole of it on Reuben's shoulders, and added, moreover, the tragedy of her own warped life. He was a tyrant, who sucked his children's blood, and cursed them when they succeeded in breaking free. "Tell my lord," said Calverley, "I will attend him instantly." HoME²Ô¾®¿Õ·¬ºÅѸÀ×Á´½Ó
