| | Manga!! |
| | The first surprise in store for readers of New Treasure Island was the scene in which the young protagonist arrives by car at a wharf, hurrying to catch his ship before it sailed. | | | From the close-up of the boy's face the perspective pans to the driver's seat of the car and the gradual zoom-in of the car racing along the seaside road is almost as if the artist had simply pasted successive frames from a film onto the page. | | | Furthermore, this technique was only employed in the opening scene which has little to do with the main narrative. |

| | What are Manga and Anime |
| | But even the kiddie stuff tends not to be as simple-minded as the American versions (not including intelligent American comics, but more thinking of TV shows). | | | True, some aspects of manga are taken from the West (Osamu Tezuka, the "father" of modern manga, was influenced by Disney and Max Fleisher), but its main features, such as simple lines and stylized features, are distinctly Japanese. | | | Characters aren't forced into plots, like a foot into a too-tight shoe; instead, stories grow out of the characters. |
