1. Tokiwa-sōwas an apartment where Osamu Tezuka and many young manga artists once lived before they became famous. Tokiwa-sō was a small, inexpensive apartment in Toshima-ku, Tokyo. Residents included Shotaro Ishinomori, Fujio Akatsuka, Fujiko Fujio, Yoshiharu Tsuge. It existed as a sort of atelier from 1952 to 1982. The business of manga production today in Japan has a prototype in the collaborative activities pioneered at Tokiwa-sō.
