Mangas in daily life

Mangas are a part of daily life for japanese

and not only for children

Astro Boy

Astro boy was first broadcast on television in Japan from 1963 to 1966. As his anime enjoyed a high level of popularity, each time a train stops at Takadanobaba station in Tokyo, which is actually the closest station where Osamu Tezuka lives, you can hear Astro boy song.

Afro Samurai

Afro Samurai's father was the old Number One, until he was challenged by a gunman, "Justice" (who was then Number Two), who fought him in a duel to become the new Number One. At the time the gunman challenged his father, Afro was just a child. Now a grown man, he is a master swordsman and has the title of "Number Two" and sets out on his journey of revenge to avenge his father.



Created by Takashi Okazaki, this manga was first broadcast on Spike Tv on January 2007.

It also looks like Samurai Champloo, in the fighting style.
