What Did You Think of This Show’s Finale?
Personally, I thought it was awesome! Getting some of the last pieces of Dr. Tenma’s origin and the confrontation was full of emotion! I’ve only seen the Japanese version of the show, so I don’t know if the English version changed anything or not. I’m curious to know what fans of this show and the franchise as a whole think of 2003’s ending!

How Would Your Take on A PROPER Astro Boy Reboot Be Like?
IMO, if I was in charge of the reboot, I’d definitely have it be animated by none other than…
MAPPA.
It would be in the same vein as Dororo.
And this is gonna be much grittier and more faithful to the source material while also acknowledging other adaptations.
The animation? Oh. Oh my god. That’s gonna go H A R D.
And same with the soundtrack. Like, GOOSEBUMPS.
And yes, the PLUTO ARC WILL be adapted.
IMO, I’d have Ochanomizu and Tenma be genuine coworkers like Dr. Light and Dr. Wily, and they have a custody battle over Astro before Ochanomizu takes him in.
And the character designs? Still true to the text. Just… drawn in today’s age.
It’s going to be GENUINELY FUNNY And GENUINELY GOOSEBUMP INDUCING at the same time, and oh my god- the OST is going to go so, so, HARD!!! The OG theme? That’s a recurring leitmotif here!
And the hypothetical dub cast? Luci Christian (My HC choice for the reboot version of Astro) would EAT. So would Ray Chase (Dr. Tenma), Uran (Erica Mendez), Zeno Robinson (Atlas), Peter Lurie (Dr. Ochanomizu), and Chris Sabat (The Narrator).
Alongside Patrick Seitz (Pluto), Brandon McInnis (Epsilon), North No. 2 (J Michael Tatum), Robert McCollum (Gesicht), Matthew Mercer (Blue Knight), Ian Sinclair (Skunk Kusai), Scott McNeil (Hamegg), Chris Whekamp (Tawashi), Kent Williams (Nakamura), etc.
The title of this hypothetical reboot?
Astro Boy: Recharged
And an overarching theme for this reboot is “We can become more than who we were programmed to be”.
What about y’all? Leave your suggestions in the comments!

Who remembers Astro Boy movie?
Sure it isn’t perfect but it is a nice movie, sad that this is the last animated movie made by Imagi before the company went Bankrupt.

Astro Boy fans, the Live Action film isn’t happening anymore, but I don’t think it should be cancelled in it’s entirety
Sony is not moving forward with the Live Action adaptation of Astro Boy with Jason Reitman developing the project. While the live action adaptation would have been interesting to see it probably would have been over budgeted and a flop, but I don’t believe it should be cancelled in its entirety. I think the film should be reworked this time into an animated film, but hopefully this time it will work not like the 2009 film which didn’t. I think a rebooted animated film would be great.

A different Astro Boy?
I posted these menko cards a while back, but I've done some more digging, and I'm wondering what people think. In my research, it appears that Takeo Nagamatsu (creator of Golden Bat in the 1930s) created a character called "Atom Boy" in the post war years around the time that Osamu Tezuka was creating his Astro Boy. Nagamatsu's adventure science fiction picture story "Atom Boy: The Iceman of the Demon Sea," was serialized in 142 installments on page 2 of the evening edition of the Chubu Nippon Shimbun (now Chunichi Shimbun) for six months, from June 30 to December 29, 1952. I don't have access to any images from that picture story, so I can say for sure that these cards depict this other Atom Boy, but it certainly seems like a strong possibility.
Anyone have thoughts?
