1. Tempy

The world witnesses the coming of Super Humans - people with extraordinary strength and skills. But when they start falling dead left and right, it's up to unlicensed surgeon Black Jack to find the cure and uncover the mystery behind the beautiful Jo Carol Brane. Exciting medical thriller based on Osamu Tezuka's original manga.

The show looks great, though little Pinoko definitely looks out of place - while almost everybody is drawn realistically, she still looks like a remnant of 50s Tezuka character design (it's funny seeing her put together an Astro Boy jigsaw puzzle though). The show is also marred by an overuse of still images - while they're there for dramatic effect, too much of them especially at the end disrupts the flow of the story. Otherwise a nice little movie that not many have seen.
