Where it came from
Released to honor the 80th anniversary of Mitsuteru Yokoyama's birth, this commemorative guidebook serves as a definitive retrospective on the creator of the iconic giant robot Tetsujin 28-go. The publication was curated to celebrate Yokoyama's monumental influence on the Japanese manga industry, specifically highlighting his role in establishing the mecha genre that would go on to define decades of popular culture.
The volume functions as both a historical record and a design study, featuring archival illustrations, sketches, and editorial commentary that trace the evolution of the Tetsujin design from its debut in the mid-1950s. It was crafted for dedicated enthusiasts and scholars of manga history, offering a structured look at how Yokoyama's minimalist, heavy-set robot aesthetic contrasted with later, more complex mecha designs. It was well-received upon release for its comprehensive curation of Yokoyama’s creative process.
