The woman turns the page twice, and twice the page starts with "NO 2772". The pages are also a little bit empty! :P


2772 she's reading the phoenix!![/QUOTE]
I just noticed that one myself (the picture of Olga, the model CP-42 robot of 2772), as I was plowing through that episode.

Actually, this is a catalog.

I edited my last post, & added a quote to make clear what I was talking about. I assume, you refer to '2772' I assume this is 2772 AD.

It must be using super paper. At page 2772, the book is really thin.

2772 refers to Phoenix 2772, in which, Olga, the pictured robot appears. :lol:

Surprisingly I don't notice any mistakes with 1980s Astroboy. So many cartoons are riddled with problems like scenes being used more than once and lazy animation. I saw an example of the latter when I watched an episode of teenage mutant ninja turtles. The turtles were dressed in fancy dress and they had to remove the clothes quickly. Actually very quickly. It was the start of a fight and that theme song had already started. The animators must have decided that the uniforms are now two dimensional drawings that could be taken off with one pull from the hat. Everything came off with the hat - including boots. If you tried to think about it just didn't make sense. Heck even Poochie flying home to his home planet on the simpsons looked better. Only slightly dodgy animation in GRITW was when Bruton lands at Brondos location - the animation of his 'whirlwind' form reverting back to normal was achieved by slowly making the 'wind' lines disappear. I suppose even Photar's fight had some lazy animation when the camera zooms in on him flying towards bruton to make it look like he's.....well..... flying towards him! Also Brutons 'argh' when he hits the ground head first occurs a bit too long after impact

Did anyone else notice the visual similarity of Olga to Niki/Nuka/Ryoka?!

Yes, the headband, hair and eye color, outfit style/color - it's uncanny!

Who came first, Olga or Niki/Nuka/Ryoka? Might be another member of the Star System! :heart:
