The Book of Human Insects is recognised as Tezuka's most cinematic title. Reading much like a thriller, this title twists and turns and features Toshiko Tomura, a timeless leading lady. Toshiko possesses the unique ability to mirror the abilities of others, making her a celebrity at the tender age of 20. As a mimic, her past of murder and plagiarism has created a long-list of enemies that is now catching up to her.
