My next Tpop column is up - on Osamu Tezuka, since I'd mentioned him a couple of times already and realized there were probably lots of people who didn't know much about him or why he's so influential.
Oooh! I love it! It's short and concise, and it gives a really quick overview of the man. I wish you wrote this a year ago, when I had to make the presentation.
Cool, now I know how to say "God of Manga" in Japanese :D *will probably use the expression often being the Tezuka-fangirl she is*
You wrote a good overview of him. I only noticed how much of a pioneer Tezuka was after I looked deeper into his later works (before that I just knew him as "the guy who did Astroboy" at the back of my head, as most people do); Hi no Tori has some examples of really funky storytelling...

Yeah, sometimes the hardest part is figuring out what to leave out.
Okamisamaa~!
