Doraemon (ドラえもん) is a Japanese manga series created by Fujiko F. Fujio (the pen name of Hiroshi Fujimoto) which later became an anime series and Asian franchise. The series is about a robotic cat named Doraemon, who travels back in time from the 22nd century to aid a schoolboy, Nobita Nobi.

Doraemon is considered a cultural icon of Japan and on April 22, 2002, is voted one of the 22 Asian Heroes by Time Asia magazine. A majority of Doraemon episodes are comedies with moral lessons regarding honesty, perseverance, courage, and etc. Several noteworthy environmental issues are often visited, including homeless animals, endangered species, deforestation, and pollution.



The series first appeared in December 1969, when it was published simultaneously in six different magazines. In total, 1,344 stories were created in the original series, which are published by Shogakukan under the Tentōmushi (てんとう虫, Tentōmushi) manga brand, extending to forty-five volumes. The volumes are collected in the Takaoka Central Library in Toyama, Japan, where Fujio was born.

Doraemon was awarded the first Shogakukan Manga Award for children's manga in 1982, and the first Osamu Tezuka Culture Award in 1997.

Osamu Tezuka 手塚治 Tezuka Osamu 手塚治虫
November 3, 1928 – February 9, 1989

a Japanese cartoonist, manga artist, animator, producer, activist and medical doctor, although he never practiced medicine. Born in Osaka Prefecture, he is best known as the creator of Astro Boy, Kimba the White Lion and Black Jack. He is often credited as the "Godfather of Anime", and is often considered the Japanese equivalent to Walt Disney, who served as a major inspiration during his formative years.
His prolific output, pioneering techniques, and innovative redefinitions of genres earned him such titles as "the father of manga", "the god of comics" and "kamisama of manga". His grave is located in Tokyo's Souzen-ji Temple Cemetery.

Dark Side of the Manga: Tezuka Osamu's Dark Period
Tezuka Osamu spent the first two decades of his career entertaining Japanese children with his manga like Tetsuwan Atomu, but the rigors of being Japan's most visible creative public icon sent him down a dark path that would transform both his career and his legacy.

As global economies lurch from the popping of financial bubble after bubble, industrialized nations with identities forged in the aftermath of World War II are looking back on past histories, both near and far, with longing—a comingling of the urge to retreat into a cultural memory of triumph while searching for the elusive path back to greatness. Japan is no exception.
The success of novels like Murakami Ryū’s Popular Hits of the Shōwa Era (2011; see WLT, Sept. 2011, 63) and Urasawa Naoki’s manga 20th Century Boys (1999–2006) is a telling sign that many Japanese people are reacting to current economic and social instabilities by dissecting the remains of their country’s dynamic recent past for answers to modern problems.

Wilhelm Busch

Heinrich Christian Wilhelm Busch
(* 15. April 1832 in Wiedensahl; † 9. Januar 1908 in Mechtshausen)
war einer der einflussreichsten humoristischen Dichter und Zeichner Deutschlands. Seine erste Bildergeschichte erschien 1859.



Schon in den 1870er Jahren zählte er zu den bekannten Persönlichkeiten Deutschlands. Zu seinem Todeszeitpunkt galt er als ein „Klassiker des deutschen Humors“, der mit seinen satirischen Bildergeschichten eine große Volkstümlichkeit erreichte. Er gilt heute als einer der Pioniere des Comics. Zu seinen bekanntesten Werken zählen die Bildergeschichten Max und Moritz, Die fromme Helene, Plisch und Plum, Hans Huckebein, der Unglücksrabe und die Knopp-Trilogie.

Bildrollen und Manga –
Japanische Bilderzählungen vom 18. Jahrhundert bis zur Gegenwart

Bildrollen und Manga ist die erste Ausstellung in Deutschland, die den Blick – ausgehend von den Bilderzählungen des 18. und 19. Jahrhunderts – auf die Entwicklung der politischen Karikatur im „Land der aufgehenden Sonne“ lenkt. Einige japanische Leihgaben, wie Ausgaben des Satiremagazins Manga aus dem Zweiten Weltkrieg, sind bisher noch nie im Ausland gezeigt worden. Ebenfalls eine besondere Rarität sind die 30 Originalzeichnungen des Comics Barfuß durch Hiroshima von Keiji Nakazawa (1939–2012), die einzig in Hannover und dann für lange Zeit nicht mehr außerhalb Japans zu sehen sein werden.

Dieser stark autobiografisch beeinflusste, gesellschaftskritische Comic gilt als Meilenstein des Manga, denn er thematisierte Anfang der 1970er Jahre die Atombombenabwürfe im Zweiten Weltkrieg – bis dahin ein Tabuthema in Japan. Zudem wurde Nakazawas Geschichte 1982 in der Bundesrepublik als erster Manga überhaupt veröffentlicht und lenkte damit den Blick deutscher Leser auf die japanische Comic-Kultur.



Steht das älteste Objekt der Ausstellung, eine kostbare Bildrolle aus der Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts, noch für die Frühform der grafischen Erzählung, sind die Ukiyo-e-Farbholzschnitte von Hokusai Katsushika (1760–1849) oder Hiroshige Utagawa (1797–1858) bereits als publikumsorientierte Massenmedien zu begreifen. Hokusai war es auch, der den Begriff „Manga“ („ungezügeltes Bild“) in die japanische Kunst einführte. Hiermit bezeichnete er skizzenhafte, teils satirische Studien des Alltagslebens, von denen eine umfangreiche Auswahl in der Ausstellung präsentiert wird. Die Satirezeitschrift The Japan Punch (1862–1887) und japanische Karikaturen zu den bis heute politisch aktuellen Kriegen gegen China (1894/95) und Russland (1904/05) machen hingegen die Verschmelzung der fernöstlichen mit der europäischen Bildsprache zu Beginn der Moderne deutlich.

Composing a haiku is sort of in the Japanese blood, since the rhythm of 5-7-5 is learned at an early age and fits the Japanese language so well. Even without thinking much many Japanese are often muttering something to themselves, which has the rhythm of haiku.

Anyway, for the Germans, it is the ryhming rhythm of Wilhlem Busch, a great painter and poet, maybe the "Mother (father) of all comic strips".


A piece from the famous Max and Moritz and Widow Bolte

Widow Bolte, bless her soul,
Goes downstairs and takes a bowl,
And she scoops a portion out
Of her cherished sauerkraut
Which she deems to taste sublime
Heated up the second time.



In the meantime, on the sly,
Something's going on up high.
Max has shown some foresight here,
For he brought his fishing gear.
