From Shelley Esaak
Depending on where you look or who's talking, you'll see Tezuka referred to as the God, Father, Godfather, Grandfather, Emperor and/or King of both manga and anime. ("Manga" and "anime," then - remember those two types of art.)
Whichever of these titles you wish to give the man, it is wholly deserved. He didn't "merely" change the future of manga and create anime as we know it, he worked ceaselessly. Over the course of his career, Tezuka created and wrote more than 700 manga series containing an estimated 170,000 pages of drawings, and another 200,000 pages of anime storyboards and scripts.
