Let's see which is most polular...
I like the 80's version the best.
What is your favourite version of astroboy

I think there is already a topic like this but I could be mistaken. Most here like the 80s the most. There seems to be more hate for the 03 version and for good reason but I still adore it

I loved the 2003 series but after watching the 80s, I thought the 80s was better. Astro in the 2003 one sounds weird after watching the 80s one.

Yeah I guess they appealed to kids a little bit too much to the point where they did not care enough either.

The following might be complicated...
I love the 1960s version the best because he looks older than the 80s version, much more cartoony, and he is in black and white! ^^
But If I could just create an Astro, a la Carte, he would have the look of the 2000s version, the personality of the 80s, and the cartoony durability and feel of the 60s. B) Voice... 60s version, Billie Watt style... or 80s version... Absolutely not the 2000s version.
I don't like the 80s version because I totally don't dig the chubbiness of the character design. I really don't like the 2000s version because of his personality (too wimpy) and lack of humor in overall design (give him back his hip guns and other "useless" powers the animators scrapped from the original!).

I'll settle for more 80s episodes.

I've only seen bits in pieces of the 60's and 80's astro so I'm going with the 03 version cause I've seen everything he's done and liked it.
But I'm not sure if any of them are better than they other, I think each version is just suppose to be in the voice of it's audience. It's like comparing leave it to beaver to what ever is suppose to be a family sitcom today.
Astro is just a great story than can transend generations, like spiderman. It's like every 20 years theres a new astroboy TV show cause what's important about astroboy is will always apply to the world. So as the world changes so will astro so that his message live on.
