1976

After this series jumped from around thirteenth in the reader rankings to third and going to the Shogakukan archives to study classic manga, Torishima finally became interested in his job. Preferring shōjo manga such as Kaze to Ki no Uta and Poe no Ichizoku, he felt that Jump manga at the time "had no intelligence or depth" and decided to help foster manga he found interesting as long as they ranked high with readers. He also studied the first chapter of Ore wa Teppei panel by panel and the layout and angles in each one, because he felt it was the easiest manga to read and tried to impart this basic structure to his artists.
