AstroBoy Online Forums

I just noticed something weird. When Astro is first created and he gets off the table, he has bare feet. You can see his toes. But between then and when he gets his boots in the next episode, his feet are covered by these small red shoe things. We don't get to see his toes ever again except whe...

same here, but I really miss the cuteness of the B&W series. The newest one has no physical humor, no sight-gags, http://en-f.tezuka.co.jp/studio/character/images/kihon/c011/c011_1.gif Lamp was in one episode, but no candle on his head, no Hyoutan-Tsugi, http://en-f.tezuka.co.jp/studio/character/ima...

I checked the site, saw a button labelled 'English', but pressing it took me away from the page. Bablefish is of no help, because the text is contained in graphics.

I was about to ask you what episode it was from jeffbert, I knew you'd spotted Astro in a kimono earlier but I hadn't seen it. It would have made a great trivia question, but that's too bad. I still have not bothered to learn the code for creating forms. Anyway, let me see if I can name...

Do not forget this costume: http://backup1.bullguard.com/backup/%7bC896BDA7-B97F-4680-8435-F48DA23CD0C5%7d/public/Astro%20dog%20disguise%2000.jpg http://backup1.bullguard.com/backup/%7bC896BDA7-B97F-4680-8435-F48DA23CD0C5%7d/public/Astro%20dog%20disguise%2001.jpg Uran's head is so big, her arms ...

have got Ideas for a kimono but I cant remember seeing him wear one.

Check "Uran the tomboy". Atom is preparing to celebrate the new year, and he is wearing a kimono. If nobody beats me to it, I might get around to posting a few pics.

Are you saying that shows that cartoon network now airs, were first on Kids WB, and therefore we have hope for this, too?

I have seen 1-16 of the new series, and have noted the absence of manga-style humor. It is a departure from previous stuff, and a sad one, at that. :( :cry: Even the film Metropolis had Lamp with a candle on the back of his head, but the new Astroboy series completely lacks the funny visual gags!...

No fair! I do not get that channel! :angry:

As described by the webpage, its all about the 80s version, although I do not see how that comes under "40th anniversary". But on the other hand, 152 pages seems like nowhere near enough to cover the 192 episodes of just the 60s alone, much less the color remakes.
