  • Tezuka-dono never stops of working O¬OU

    In Heaven he's doing manga for Buddha ;)

  • Damn.....Tezuka's genius is just.....astonishing.

    I love how the characters actually acknowledge and interact with the low quality of the 'film'.

  • It's like Penn & Teller demonstrating a classic Houdini trick perfectly, while winking at you and making you totally aware of the trick, but the magic still works.

  • It's NOT just another "breaking the 4th wall" type of film, although that is part of it:yes, tons of people have made scratchy videos-but this is a virtuoso performance of it-seen on film, it's technically brilliant-way more intricate than just a filter in AE. When the film "breaks" it's absolutely convincing when projected--you will swear the damn thing broke. It's also a work of meta film making, literally breaking down the essential elements of film craft for you to see. Plus it's also funny.

  • Sorry but isn't this film to bright? I saw this in class and it was much more darker.

  • @8adamsworld8 It's actually the logo to "Mushi Productions", but I wouldn't be surprised if he used it in other places as well.

  • does this feel like a Tex Avery cartoon to anyone else?

  • Tezuka was a Genius!

  • genius

  • 3:24 Lol, took me a sec to get what was going on XD

  • @pmaestro I mostly agree, breaking the 4th wall isn't anything new, even back when this short was made. It wasn't genius, but it was still very clever and dang funny. But I think you're right, it is a little overhyped because of his name, but that's how lots of things are.

    As for anyone being able to do something like this, I disagree. It isn't amazing like some of his other work, but it is fun and entertaining and still carries the special unique Osamu touch that most of his other works have.

  • The way the cowboy hid from the other was very clever.

    The ending was hilarious.

    The colour part was beautiful!
