(comment) Alongside the manga serialization, the TV drama "The Secret of Piron" was broadcast, pioneering the media mix approach. The serialization of "Piron-chan," which was originally drawn for a younger audience, is an important work also because the baton was passed from Tezuka to Fujiko Fujio. Here is a scene from the first episode published in the October 1960 issue of "Shogaku Yonensei" (Fourth Grade Elementary School Students), where the brothers Akio and Tetsuo confront someone who appeared in the dark night. The figure is actually Mira, Prince Piron's bodyguard robot, but it continues to be depicted as if it were a terrifying monster, serving as a brilliant mislead that stimulates the reader's imagination. Mira, who repeatedly saves the main characters from desperate situations, is a slender beauty who gained popularity with her mysterious charm in the live-action version (Takahata).
