LAOG said: Is it your first (early) Tezuka manga?Nextworld has been a lot better than I thought it would be. It has an old-school style of cartoonish drawings that makes it pretty enjoyable. It's pretty whacky how it jumps all over the place - probably due to how it was originally released. There's a sort of 'political incorrectness' to how Tezuka genuinely throws around the SF-ish issues. It's quite charming and pulpy. |

| It's the third one I'll be reading by him. Though this is the oldest one so far, seeing as how it's from 1951 and all. Yeah the story has very little fluidity from what I've read so far. It just doesn't transition well from one event to another, that at times it seems likes there is too much going on, when there really isn't. |

I've been going through his stuff sort of chronologically, so I do think that compared to some of the earlier works (Lost World, New Treasure Island, Metropolis) - I do think it's laid out a lot better panel-wise. I remember Angel Gunfighter also having better transitions between panels - which was from the same year as Nextworld if I remember right. In his previous works there was a lot more of the weird panel use - like a literal animation storyboard kind of - or a couple of key frames. Then in Metropolis you can see Tezuka really cramming a lot of 'action' into each panel - all those voice boxes and tonnes of characters doing random things. But yeah, it does feel like his style is changing, gradually, and his storytelling is improving too. I'd take a guess that he had a much more 'normal' manga style by the time of his gekiga-influenced stuff. |

I just think he's trying to do too much with so little space and it just doesn't transition well. The story is pretty good though, and the jabs he takes at multiple things such as the politicians is done really well.LAOG said: It's the third one I'll be reading by him.

| I think I saw Adventure back in 2011 or 12, Maybe earlier, so it's still sort of in recallable-memory for me.

It's nice how it's so unburdened - and even when it's naive, there's that underlying cynicism and sometimes overtly addressed things like all the petty war, hate, fear, greed, and so on. Tezuka didn't have a direct hand in Pluto though. Urasawa took Astro Boy - one or two of the arcs specifically - and then did something of his own with it. (But I haven't read it yet, so I'm not sure how much he took from Tezuka.) |

The random set of events just don't mix well. This should have happened a lot sooner, than this late on. I wouldn't know myself either, as I have not read astro boy. Do you have any place that has most of Tezuka's works? I've noticed that a lot of the bigger manga sites don't carry that many of them, or they have incomplete entries. |

All the Tezuka I intend to read for now I've found on Bakabt. If you have an account you can search it up pretty easily, otherwise there's quite a lot of Tezuka there - something like 20+ There are probably quite a few english releases that haven't been scanned either, but I'm not sure. |

Sure, sure, I'll give you that before it didn't matter if they reused the CG models but this is actually kinda important, I can't help but laugh at this sight, it was even worst when they had that other guy look through a monitor and he looked at these people and he was like "dude, I don't fucking know, can't tell who is who", can't blame him really. |

I like going through manga by mangaka and in written order if I can, so I've been doing that so far. My first goal for now has been to get Astro Boy so I can enjoy Pluto for all is worth, but I do want to read his other interesting works like Buddha, Dororo, Phoenix, Black Jack, Apollo's Song, Princess Knight, and pretty much anything really. It's great when interesting mangaka have so many works that are actually translated. |
