   Hi aficionados of manga,   
      
      Maa-chan no Nikkichou   
   Author: TEZUKA Osamu   
   genres: Comedy Shounen Slice of Life   
      
   Maa-chan’s Diary is the first manga created by Tezuka Osamu.   
   He authored it in 1946, and it ran in Shokokumin Shinbun   
   (Mainichi Elementary Schoolchildren’s Newspaper). It follows   
   the life of a little preschooler named Maa-chan, who lives in   
   post-war Japan.   
      
   	This is pretty elementary. stuff in every way.  I have not   
   read the whole series which is now online on fanfox.net.  I did   
   read the first couple of episodes and then today more was out and   
   i dipped into the stuff from a few months later and Maa-chan is   
   having adventures.   Also another Tezuka cast member shows up,   
   a rich round older fellow who has lost a diamond.  The art is   
   better.  Maa-chan might grow up to be a Tezuka hero.   
   	But clear evidence of Tezuka's development.
