Time Out says

The exhibition takes place at the famous-manga-artists’-apartment-turned-museum Tokiwaso Manga Museum and spans the bulk of Tezuka’s artistic journey, beginning with his childhood sketches. You’ll find over 100 works from notable series such as Phoenix, Metropolis, Black Jack and, of course, Tezuka’s most recognisable character: Astro Boy.

Dubbed ‘the god of manga’, Tezuka’s themes often touched on environmental issues, the true essence of humanity and the invaluable nature of life. His simplistic yet highly expressive artistic style demonstrates an almost childlike sincerity toward humanity.

Tickets for the exhibition are ¥500 for adults, ¥100 for elementary and junior high students and free for preschoolers. Make your reservation here.
