Why is it so popular?

Do you know anything about Black Jack or Tezuka Osamu?

Yes, Tezuka Osamu is famous for Astro boy.
He is a father of Anime, people say.

Well, let me talk about a bit of Black Jack.


Black Jack is a manga written by Tezuka Osamu during 70s and 80s.
I know, it's a quite old manga and people say old-fashion.
I won't deny it, but it is also true that people still read it and enjoy it.
Here, there is a secret why he is so popular.

How could people imagine so many things which didn't exsist at that time.
There are lots of problems in this world.
Black Jack shows us how the world will be.
At that time, people didn't care so much about the danger of the earth, our planet.
BUT he did. He mentioned so many things which we need to solve now.
Not only for nature, but for many things which we are now considering.

Why did he know the earth was danger?
Did he predict the future?
NO.
He just loved the earth, so he listened to the sound of nature.

It's seen in this manga Black Jack.

However, he said that he didn't write any philosophy things,
he just wrote an enthusiasm for quixotic adventure.
I am not sure whether this Japanese meaning is same as English, but he called it,
a Romance.

He wrote something which we need to solve now,
that's why people read it now as well.
It is one of the greatest mangas which shold be read over the generations.
