Who is this?

Postby Tetsuwan Penguin » 12 years ago

This clip is from the 2009 movie. There were quite a few members of the 'star system' included such as Higeoyaji and Tezuka himself. In this clip we see Tezuka, but who is the woman? I think it might be Chiyoko Wato with glasses. She was Dr. Ochanomizu's assistant in the 2003 Anime series

I'm sure it's a nobody. You shouldn't expect to see star system characters everywhere. I think you said Kiddo from The Three-Eyed One was played by Black Jack before, but he really isn't.

Basically, if it doesn't come as obvious, don't think too hard about it.

Is that Yuko's "real" name?

OMG, I didn't notice this comment! I'm sorry kscharf, but no, Yuko is NOT played by Wato. For an example of how Tezuka Productions draws Wato in modern anime productions, watch the 2004 Black Jack series.

She's Sharaku's girlfriend in The Three-Eyed One. She was in the "20th Century Last Mystery" TV special too.

No I meant that Kiddo reminded me of Blackjack without the scar.
Maybe I am reading too much into the characters, but the makers of the 2009 movie did try to play homage to Tezuka in the movie. The modified the appearance of many of the characters though. I think they made HamEgg resemble Nathan Lane the actor who did his voice.
