You're right all of those things will most likely never be fixed and even in Darkhorse manga edition they cut some stories out but the first 2 episodes from the 1980 series are in Madman's dvd version subtitled so that's not a bigie a real astro fan should get that release even if there's a lack of the Japanese track for the other episodes."astarisborn94" wrote:It's too bad Astro Boy fans in America gets the shaft when it comes to TV shows. We are missing a big chunk of the 1963 Astro Boy series, the 1980s series has yet to get the first two episodes in English, and the 2003 dub was butchered and doesn't look to ever get a fix.

Like many pre-1970s shows, it was the victim of having it's master destroyed, leaving us with the edited version we have today. It is a huge shame to say this least and it shocked me when I found out about it yesterday (blame my lack of knowledge of pre 1990s TV)."Prettywitchiusaka" wrote:Seriously? You know, considering that Astro Boy was a big acheivement as far as anime was concerned, you'd think Tezuka Productions would take better care of this...Or at the very least, NBC would have.
