Tezuka In English Discussion Forums

I found a clip on youtube of Princess Knight without subtitles so I took shots of it with the good ol' "prt scr" button. Enjoy


She's awfully cute when she's all pouty




and because this shot was just sooo durn cute...

I had to make it an avatar

here's a smaller version.

Thats so addorbale and the animation looks very impressive for a 70's anime it looks much better them some anime's from the early 90's!

You know, I thought the same thing. Glad you like them ^^

Actually Pinka, I think this is a 60's anime. But I'm not 100% certain.

But I do agree with you that it is much better than some more modern anime. Well non-Tezuka anime anyway.

Thank you for sharing this Manetoys.

Do you think you could maybe post the link to the youtube clip to share with us also please Manetoys?

I'll see if I can find it again

Thanks. That'll be fabulous.

I wonder if there are any scenes in the entire series of her without her shoes on? I bet she has such adorable feet.

Of course we almost get to see her barefoot in the fansubbed episode when she is awakened in her bedroom near the beginning but not quite. I think she had some sort of slippers on. Heh-heh.

Those are great Manetoys. Thanks.

Maybe you could do a drawing of Sapphire barefoot sometime. I bet you could make them look really sweet. ^^

This is a pretty old post and I already said thank you in the art thread. But I'd like to bump this cute thread up so once again thank you for that cute barefoot picture Manetoys. It's so cool.

Ep. 23: Sapphire has established a good relationship with the dungeon's resident rodents after protecting them from the jailor's wrath.


1st, they provide a meal.


2nd, show Sapphire the secret passage,


3rd, they give her the vigilante's costume.

A few from e 25:




No doubt Tezuka was inspired by Disney's version of Cinderella.

Thank you Jeffbert.

So similar to parts of my Princess Knight bilingual manga. Amazing how much Tezuka used and re-used many of the same story plots again and again in manga and anime and yet made each re-using so fresh and fun with slight differences thrown in.

True; he even used plot elements that he first made in one series in other series. But I suppose that is not unusual for someone who created as many stories as Tezuka has.

He was such a gifted man.

You took these pictures off your Japanese DVD set, didn't you Jeffbert?

Are there any more cute scenes you could share with us please? I'd love them and I know Manetoys would also.
