Tezuka created many well known characters which have turned into famous icons all around the world. If Tezuka hadn’t chosen to take a career in manga and anime I don’t think we would have the same type of support or advanced technology for manga.

** __Hayao Miyazaki__ ** ** 1.  **** __ Outline important events in Hayao’s personal life, with dates. __ **  Hayao was born on January 5, 1941 in Bunkyō  [|, Tokyo] , Japan. Miyazaki decided he wanted to become a manga artist during high school. Famous manga artist like Osamu Tezuka, Tetsuji Fukushima and Sanpei Shirato influenced his early works. Hayao consciously developed his own style in manga and that has made him a very brilliant manga artist today.
