I'd definitely trust that link. F-Man is one of the fiercest supporters of legit entertainment sources I've seen (in a good way, mind you), so I think it's safe to say that the link he's provided is accurate.

And besides, I've actually been thinking about purchasing this set, just so that I can have the Japanese version alongside the english dub. Sure, it won't be the full series, but at least it will be half of it.

It is officially January 1st in Japan, so the original Astro Boy anime is now 50 years old! Now to see if something special will happen this year for the anniversary.

It is not only the 50th anniversary of the Astro Boy anime, but also the 60th anniversary of Princess Knight and 40th anniversary of Black Jack. TO.net says that "In a variety of ways, characters from the works of Osamu Tezuka will play an active role this year! Please look forward to it!"

So Princess Knight is older than Astro, huh? That kind of surprises me.

Anyway, this is sweet! I can't wait to see what they have planned!

Tetsuwan Atom is older than Princess Knight. Atom made his debut in 1951 whereas Princess Knight debuted on January, 1953.

Still looking forward to seeing what happens this year.

If the 1963 series were aired for free and officially with english subs, then it would be cool.
