Fun fact: originally Skull-Man one of shotaro ishinomori other works was going to be a tokusatsu tv show, but one of the executives at toei did not like the idea because skull-man was to scary for young audience. So shotaro ishinomori decide to make a redesign of skull man to replace the skull theme into a grasshopper and Kamen rider was born.

I like hearing the life stories of these creators born during or right after the war. These are the people who laid the foundations of the manga and anime artforms. I especially like hearing stories about the grumpy, but fearless guys like Miyazaki and Tomino. Those people had a very different perspective on life than modern creators. I suppose when your earliest memories are of living in a devastated Japan, you will see things differently than people who have only lived in peace and prosperity.

Shotaro Ishinomori's greatest work was his role as scared fisherman, in Kamen Rider Black, Hurry to Demon Island. There's also a funny story involving him and the creators of Doreamon. Apparently they only became his friends because they had a crush on Yoshie.

I'm heart broken, you forgot his last major work and contributions to manga comics. Before his passing, he also was the comic artist that gave us A Link To The Past manga. To me growing up, this was my definitive game. Their were three major character art styles used in the game. One was the typical design for the cover/ promotion that is now the definitive edition. The second was this noir/ Boris Vallejo inspired one( This was the one I saw Link as the protagonist all alone going through the struggles by himself) the third which I adored was this author who made the manga. You had no idea how amazing seeing Link be alive and interacting with the World of Zelda 3 to me. I loved how he solved things and interacted with the world. You can tell the best part was the self insert of the Hawk Cyborg inspired character as Link's rival. I knew about the series but we didn't get the animation until like 2001 or so. Please make a follow up video about this man!? He has such a long and rich experience he lived all through his life. I remember Nintendo Power made a commencement letter thanking his contributions after the final chapter wss published and told us of his passing. Even now there was a special published compilation back in 1992 or 93 with his Link to the Past manga published by Nintendo. Seeing Link face off against Trinexx still has me in amazement and wonder which he drew.

Well I believe we have found that 1960s American Entertainment inspired so many Japanese Manga and Animation that we are so thankful to enjoy. These days, America has seemed to abuse and abandon their traditional entertainment, so it's up to Japan to keep entertainment great until the next artists arrive free from modern day social engineering.

Do you have any interviews or specials on such creators as Ishinomori, Nagai or others who were in the industry at the time? I'm wondering if things like that were included as extras on Japanese DVD or LD box sets? I used to get recordings of interviews from various anime and manga artists back in the 80s and 90s and I have seen some things on channels like NHK on Miyazaki among others but there is scant info available in English. I had an old anime "Tokiwa Apartment Story" on those artists that were living and working together but I don't know if that was ever released here. I have also seen stuff like the creation of SPFX on old laser discs but I have no idea what they release anymore. I've been out of the loop for over 2 decades at this point. What is on the Shout Factory discs for extras? Anyone know?

It’s funny to me that Super Sentai most likely influenced another one of my favorite series, Bionicle. With the cast of heroes represented by different colors. Where they were probably riffing on Power Rangers. And I shouldn’t have to clarify the connection there.

Shotaro Ishinomori color coded the characters of the first Super Sentai (the series that was adapted as Power Rangers later) series with their individual colors (Red, Yellow, Pink, Blue, Green etc). When Yu Yu Hakusho was adapted into an anime, Shonen Jump's editorial department picked one of Yoshihiro Togashi's colored pages of the characters that featured each character in a different color scheme (even though Yusuke and Kuwabara had different uniform colors despite going to the same school). One of the staff members on Studio Pierrot believed it was fitting, because it helped the younger viewers differentiate the characters like Super Sentai. Initially, Yusuke and Kuwabara had the same colored uniforms (both blue) and Kurama had black hair in the manga. But for some reason, Shonen Jump's editors picked the color scheme where everyone had a different color scheme for the anime's character design.
