I start my paper on my experience of making an anime film "Buddha", the original manga written by Osamu Tezuka (1928-89), the most famous Japanese cartoonist, manga writer/ artist, animator, and producer. His best known anima is "Astro Boy" ("Tetsuwan Atomu" in the Japanese original title). He is often credited as the Godfather of Anime, the god of comics and so on, often compared with Walt Disney.
