An Homage to Tex Avery?, 13 December 2001
9/10
Author: matt-thorn from Kyoto, Japan

Tex Avery and others used to toss in gags like this once in a while, but Tezuka takes the premise to a hilarious extreme. Tezuka did plenty of hack work for television, and plenty of mediocre feature-length works, but he really poured his heart into his experimental shorts, and this is one of the best. It really is a joy to watch.
