Their facial expressions are very wonderful.

2026 is the Year of the Horse, a year of the Fire Horse that occurs once every 60 years. It is said that 2026 will be a year in which great results will be achieved (=successful) by taking on new challenges and following your own path. With the Osaka, Kansai Expo being held in 2025, many people will visit Japan, attracting attention and interaction from around the world. It was also a year in which we were reminded of the power of culture. Following last year's theme, the 2026 Tezuka Osamu Calendar will feature four-character idioms. Japan has the wisdom of words that have been passed down through the ages. The meanings and teachings of four-character idioms are layered with the lively and expressive expressions of Tezuka's characters, adding depth and playfulness. Each picture and each word can be a source of encouragement, healing, and comfort. We hope that the Year of the Horse will be a year of tremendous momentum and leaps forward, like the "Ten Thousand Horses Soaring High" (Bamba Honto). ■Size: 364mm x 540mm (including strips) ■Number of Pages: 13 (including cover) ■Publisher: Tezuka Productions Co., Ltd.

The story also features a variety of Tezuka merchandise exhibitions, as well as "My Manga Diary: The Insect Chapter," a section fitting for Tezuka's love of insects.

They are also mentioned in the love story.

Osamu Tezuka's "Bukkira ni Yoroshiku!" is a rare work that contains many elements of a lolita/shota relationship between Bukkira and Toroko, who are lovers, and also features an oni-loli(おにロリ。Adult man and girl) element with Rock and Toroko, who initially tries to use her but later repents and tries to protect her as an adult.

If you look closely, you can see that Toroko and Bukkira are in front of Rock's eyes.

I think the color touch makes this an impressive illustration.
