Corey, you'll notice that about Tezuka books.

He uses many characters over and over, in what people call a star-system. If you become familiar with his other books, you'll begin to understand the characters.

That being said, when you open a new story, it is indeed a new story but with old friends.

that is cool. which books would you suggest next Tyler?

[Classic]

It depends. The one you're reading is more of a family-friendly book. If you want to continue with that,  the Astro Boy books are good (a series of 23 books), a 2-part series called NextWorld is a good one, and of course the novel version of Metropolis which is much sillier than its movie counterpart.

BlackJack is a little more mature but still has the sci-fi theme going on. It's basically HOUSE before the show was invented.

And of course his adult books are also great, though they can often go into disturbing territory.
I just got done reading Barbara which was a very depressing book. There's also Message to Adolf which features a story of a young Japanese-Jewish Boy accepting his role as Hitler's sidekick. Swallowing the Earth is a good one too...The Book of Human Insects is one of those disturbing ones. Ode To Kirihito and Apolo's Song.

Basically there's a book to satisfy what you want. You can't go wrong.

finished Joshiraku and its OVA

i liked it a lot more than nyerp did at least, but maybe my weebness helps that because i found a lot of the stuff that was overtly japanese to actually be really interesting and fun to watch, like the segments where they tour famous parts of prefectures and stuff

as a gag comedy though some gags were way overdone and some were underdeveloped and it sort of comes off as a show that would've been better handled by a different studio lol

i liked it though, 7/10
