Willis Henry Series Influences: DragonBall and Tetsuwan Atomu (Astroboy) (Part 2 of 3)



 Willis Henry Series has a lot of influences both indirectly and directly.

Tetsuwan Atomu has many many influences the biggest being the introduction of robots and the concept of robots with emotions.  These ideas had a great place in the world of Willis Henry.

Dragon Ball is one of my favorite manga to read, and young Goku and his adventures with his friends and rivals influenced Willis Henry greatly.  From Goku fighting poses, to animal people, robot, and even architecture.  I love young Goku and the pure adventure of early DragonBall, and all of this contributed to Willis Henry.  

For these reasons and many others, Dragonball and Tetsuwan Atomu are great influences on the Willis Henry Series.

See ya next week
