Probably Osamu Tezuka’s most reliable “go-to” Star to play a scientist or a doctor. He is generally a friendly and competent researcher, concerned with the welfare of mankind. He will often be the one to make a great discovery pertinent to a crisis, even to the salvation of mankind, and yet be disregarded as a crackpot by the rest of the scientific community. However, at other times he serves as a voice of sage wisdom – including somewhat famously lecturing Black Jack on the significance of not underestimating the human body and the miracles of nature.
