Edu-Manga: Yukichi Fukuzawa

This new line of Edu-Manga* features Astro Boy, one of Japan's most popular icons among children who journeys alongside the reader. He provides for kids not only a history lesson but also a richer understanding of the life lessons these historical figures share with us. Fukuzawa Yukichi, founder of Keio University and one of the first experts on the West in modern Japan, is generally looked on positively as having played an important role in the modernization of late 19th-century Japan. *Note: Edu-Manga is a term coined in Japan which means Educational Manga.
