Hosuke Sharaku (写楽保介 Sharaku Hōsuke) is the main character of the Osamu Tezuka manga and anime The Three-Eyed One (Mitsume ga tooru). In some English versions Sharaku’s name has been anglicized to Shallack. Indeed the names Sharaku Hosuke and Wato-san are references to Sherlock Holmes and Watson. Hosuke Sharaku is also part of Osamu Tezuka’s Star System. The character may have been the inspiration for two other popular manga Yu-Gi-Oh! and 3×3 Eyes.[citation needed]
