Atom: The Beginning (Manga Discussion)

[Kitty Lue]

On another note... Do you guys think Atom is part of the A(like A106, A107...) series? I'm quite curious to see how far they'll go with that.

That's an interesting thought! I was inclined to think Atom isn't a part of any "series", since Tenma created him out of grief to be another Tobio, and looks a lot more "human" than what we've seen of the A series. But then I had another thought; in some versions of the origin story, Atom's body was for a robot the ministry had already been working on. Also, in the cases where we've seen Atom's body without the "skin", it's easier to see how he might have at least started out as part of the A series if it went that far.

Is A107 a girl? Because it somehow reminds me of Uran; Atom's sister. I always consider A106 as Atom's predecessor and A107 as A106's younger sibling.

Btw, I am new here. Nice to meet you all.
