Scanned for my personal and general research, Manga no Mushi was run by Osamu Tezuka himself and often served as a survey work on manga theory, mangaka and his own work in reflection, mainly manuscripts from his early days pre-mass fame. This particular issue focuses on the works and lives of the mangakas Keiko Takemiya, Yoshiko Tsuchida, Eiko Mizuno, Moto Hagio and Maki Sato.
