Commentary The popular novel "Leopard's Eyes" by Makoto Takagaki was made into a television program on Radio Tokyo Television (currently TBS) in July 1959, and at the same time a manga version (titled "Jaguar's Eyes") was published in Kodansha's "Shonen Club". '' was serialized from the August 1959 issue to the July 1960 issue. Makoto Takagaki, known for works such as "The Black Hood'', has released his first work, "Ryujinmaru'', aimed at young readers, as well as serial adventure action novels such as "Ginja no Cave'', and this is his third work. "Leopard's Eyes'' was serialized in "Shonen Club.'' It was serialized in the magazine from January to December 1927, and became extremely popular due to the gorgeous and profound illustrations by Hikozo Ito. Tatsumi Katsumaru, who was in charge of the manga adaptation, is another name for Tenma Masato. Tenma had already serialized "Super Z'' (original work by Ichiro Miyagawa) in the same magazine, so he used a pen name. The oily pen strokes of the brave boy Molly, the pretty beautiful girl Kinka, and the hateful yet unique villains are vibrant and vibrant, and it's clear that Tenma, who has always loved the original work, enjoyed drawing them. You can tell. The legendary manga "Eye of the Jaguar'', which was published in two volumes in 1960, but remained unfinished since then, is now revived!
