The collaboration between Kodansha and the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare is more colorful than most I see hanging around the neighborhood. There's a Vietnamese poster as control. I appreciate the more direct Korean approach: "Comrade, are you complying?"

The scene of the aerial assault is particularly impressive. The animators had access to Disney movies of the 1940s, which are the only comparison in terms of storytelling and technique. But it's only rarely derivative, drawing heavily on domestic animation history.

This is one of several that feature Chen Zaidao 陈再道 (that's his head). This is a copy of a more famous poster from Wuhan, where Chen led PLA intervention in a Red Guard factional war. Chen was jailed after central authorities supported the other side. https://t.co/eY4JwmxAN9

Laura Pozzi writes an introduction, https://t.co/bYHPn3gwKF, which gives the context, but you can still appreciate them without reading it. The entire collection is online here: https://t.co/dgTCiQuwa9. I like this one of Deng from 1967, sharing his famous dictum about cats.
