{{nihongo|'''''Next World'''''|来るべき世界|Kitarubeki Sekai|lead=yes}}, also known as '''''Nextworld''''', is a Japanese [[science fiction]] [[manga]] series, written and illustrated by [[Osamu Tezuka]] in 1951.

==Plot==
Created in a time when the [[Cold War]] was becoming hotter, ''Nextworld'' is Osamu Tezuka's parody of the tense relationship between the USA (represented as the 'Nation of Stars') and USSR (known in the work as the 'Uran Federation'). The main storyline focuses on atomic tests that create a race of mutant animals known as Fumoon, with psychic powers and intelligence beyond humans, who formulate a plan to evacuate hundreds of animals and a small group of people off the planet Earth. The reason for this is due to a large toxic cloud approaching the Earth, threatening to wipe out all life. Meanwhile, the two warring superpowers draw closer and closer to a confrontation.

==Legacy==
''Next World'' is the last of Osamu Tezuka's early epic science fiction trilogy, consisting of ''[[Lost World (manga)|Lost World]]'' (1948), ''[[Metropolis (manga)|Metropolis]]'' (1949) and ''Next World'' (1951).
