Now that's the same storyline used in the 1963 series for the episode where Uran was first introduced. In the 1980 series they used a different story where she runs away and gets kidnapped by robot thieves.
BTW the look on her face in the last picture you posted reminds be a bit of Betty Boop.

If I could only draw that well.... :rolleyes: You and me both. While dreaming up my alternate settings for an Atom story parallel I imagined how it could look as a Manga, but I can't even start to transform what my mind's eye sees to paper. I'm envious of people with the talent to quickly sketch wi...

That's great! Where did you ever find that? I think he should have drawn Blackjack as Batman (or maybe even the Green Hornet), that would suit his personality better. Rock as superman? Rock would make a good 'Robin'. Pinoko as Wonder Woman is great (But he should have also drawn Uran in that charact...

You know, "Ringo" looks like he was drawn to look a bit like his namesake. The Beatles were big about then...... It's a real shame that NBC never picked up on a third and fourth season. BTW, did Tezuka change the opening scenes for the show after the second season? The opening in the English version...

I've noticed that Astro and Uran are drawn taller and more child like in their expressions than in the other two series. The angry look on Astro's face on the DVD cover is atypical of his look in the Anime (except maybe some scenes with the Blue Knight). He's drawn shorter in the 1980's series and t...

My sister adopted two Korean children some years back. The last time I saw my nephew he was nine years old and just about 4 feet tall weighing nearly 70 lbs. The thought occurred to me as a day dream that he was just about Astro's height and I could almost imagine ..... I didn't have the nerve to su...

In Frankenstein's case (well actually Frankenstein's Monster's case) It must have been even worse since he was created from the parts of various dead people and in theory might have had some memory of his former lives. The poor creature would have been only a shell of his former selves and probably ...

[QUOTE=kscharf;206621]The 2003 series was different in that they wrapped a global story arc around it, but still had complete story lines in most of the individual episodes. I was a bit unprepared for the treatment of Dr. Tenma though. Was the Blue Knight character unique this series? I don't recal...
