People call him the Walt Disney of Anime, but Walt wasn’t a fraction of the person Tezuka was. He influenced the trend of gender bending in manga and anime with a binary breaking character in Princess Knight. He made Kimba the White Lion which was heavily influential on The Lion King(Kimba, seriously Disney?). He’s influenced Buddhism through an epic series on the founder’s life. He made Message to Adolf, a complex look at WWII and bigotry, while Disney was a Nazi bigot.
