I'm hanging out with my good buddy and partner and we're going to spend the entire evening hanging out and roleplaying, and eating chocolate and spinach.

The closest example to this that I can think of that actually happened was Bem just completely destroying Atom with his electro-magnet. Bem being alien tech and all it only makes sense that Atom couldn't really lay a hand on Bem at all.

If I had the mad-money to spend on it, I'd buy the whole collection on DVD from Rite-Stuff. I understand that there are a few extras in there that were never seen on US TV including one colorized episode, one in a blue toned background, and the very last episode (not dubbed but with subtitles). I h...

How Would You Like a New Video Game?

I am a gamer, a fairly aloof gamer but a gamer none-the-less and I have played most of the Astro Boy video games available to the USA. I have found that only one game has been what I call a 'good' game and that is Omega Factor for the advanced handheld, the others (while being fun to play) as a game...

I... I have a very strong love for robot children. I want to adopt one and dote on it and love it forever.

For the Roboy model it just needs skin and hair, but for now looks a little creepy.

There are lots of discrepancies in anime and manga. I think that we're just not supposed to think about it and just go with the flow.... But how fun would that really be? We're fans, we're going to dissect this and find everything that doesn't add up and substitute our fan theories and the like. It ...

While I understand dubbing companies reasoning for name-changes, I don't agree with it, however I still understand why they decided that Astro Girl, Zoran and (shudder) Urain was necessary. ... Maybe not the Urain (although it's a derivative of Uranium in pronunciation, same as Uran in Japanese) but...

I think it would be adorable if Atom cosplayed as Rockman and Uran cosplayed as Roll. One robot brother and sister duo for another!

Oh my god, if I had the money I'd snap that up in a heartbeat. At conventions I occasionally see animation cells from the 60s anime broadcast and they are always in the 2k price range. The animation cells that I manage to find from the 80s broadcast are more manageable it seems usually only in the 5...

Astro Boy Anime 50th Anniversary

I'm not sure if a thread already exists for this, I apologize if it does and this is redundant. I was wondering if anyone has heard any news of Tezuka Productions doing anything special for Astro's (anime broadcast) 50th anniversary on January first of 2013? If you haven't heard of anything or don't...
