Chiba's editor made him redraw the scene, because that's not how girls are supposed to act!! In Kogarashi Kenshi, one of the central characters is the female ninja Kasumi, who, as you can see here, easily kicks multiple grown men's asses.

Around the same time as Kogarashi Kenshi, while drawing comics for girls' magazines ("shojo manga"), Chiba Tetsuya once got fed up by how demure and passive he was supposed to portray the female protagonists. So he drew a scene in which a girl gets angry and slaps a boy.

The first time I read Shirato Sanpei's Ninja Bugeicho a few years ago, I didn't understand why it resonated so much with college students and blue collar workers in the 1960s. After looking into Shirato and his work more, I finally get it. A THREAD!!

石ノ森先生のお墓参りに行ってきました。3年続いて雨や雪だったのに、今日は晴天でした。朝11時、漫画家の佐藤真理子さんと待ち合わせての、お墓参りでした。もうすでに、お花がいっぱい供えられていて、お線香の煙もユラユラ。とっても気持ちの良い1日でした。

Did you read the Little House on the Prairie Books as a child and if so, old are you now? I'm teaching a class and none of the students have heard of these titles much less read them. I'm trying to see when these books fell out of favor...
