The grandfather of manga and anime, Osamu Tezuka created hundreds of unforgettable characters during his 40+ year career as an illustrator and animator. His influence on generations of artists has been immeasurable, and is still felt today across Japan and beyond. The Osamu Tezuka: Anime & Manga Character Sketchbook collects rough concepts from several of Tezuka's anime and manga projects. Included are characters from Mighty Atom (Astroboy), Jungle Emperor (Kimba the White Lion), and many more.
The item was in good and legible condition overall, with the exception of a few minor paint marks adorning the dust cover, which add a bit of history and intrigue of character. My copy had handwritten notes in pen across several pages, suggesting it has been well-utilized and engaged with—perhaps from a student or teacher sharing a bit of banter? I have no doubt that this will serve as a valuable reference tool in my collection.
This was my first time using this service and I will happily buy again.
