A really imaginative anthology of sci-fi stories from the late 60s and early 70s. Some of these concepts would still be considered creative nowadays, so it's nothing short of impressive that Tezuka was already working with these ideas. Some really neat twists too. Some aspects don't hold up too well, like the way women and foreigners are written--it's never malicious, but proceed with caution if that is an issue for you.
