Missing Tezuka Discovered in US:
Five missing manga works by the "God" of the medium Osamu Tezuka were discovered in a collection of Japanese publications gathered by a U.S. censorship unit after World War II.
Takeshi Tanikawa, an associate professor on cinema history at Waseda University, said he found the short pieces in the Gordon W. Prange Collection at the University of Maryland. The very existence of those pieces had long been forgotten because both the manuscript copies and the records could not be found. According to Tanikawa, the five pieces come in a form of cartoon strips with three to 12 frames.
They include a six-frame strip titled "Tameshi-giri" (trial sword-cutting), in which a subordinate uses his wits to fend off his lord's violence.
A four-frame strip titled "Tarikiremasen" (I can't take it) features a mannequin that gets embarrassed when someone peeks up her skirt.
A 16-page short manga, called "Hans to Kin no Kaminoke" (Hans and golden hair), was also found in the collection. The title had been known to some, but its contents had remained a mystery because there were no copies. The manga is drawn in a Disney-like style and deals with a story similar to something out of "Grimm's Fairy Tales."
