    "He can shoot machine guns out of his ass"
    Now I really want to read this manga.

      But complete weapons of astro boy is butt machine guns, digibeam laser from his index fingers, infrared cutting laser from his eyes, and electromagnetic energy cannon inside his arms. From anime to anime-based children cartoons, astro boy completely evolved with advanced digital robotic systems without losing his specialities, mainly humanity-oriented characteristics since first anime season

    The story you mentioned about the giant robot that is gonna destroy seven other robots is the one Naoki Urasawa reimagined on Pluto.

    There is also Pluto, based on Astro Boy, written by Urasawa ( Monster, 20th Century Boys, Master Keaton...). I haven't read it, but I heard it's really good.

    Osamu Tezuka's range is unreal, he wrote for all demographies and almost all genres: comedy, horror, action and adventure, comedy, fantasy, sci-fi, psychological, historical, romance and other sub-genres.

      Don't you check about Astroboy's blueprint in ruclips.net/video/tFhr5zQO2XA/видео.html Adopted from anime & this manga, you can see complexed internal structure also contains special remarks about real life size robot assembly predicted? You just wait until real life size #AstroBoy completely born in 2030-2040. So you're ready to interact with Astro for first time in real life? Its real life size robot will assembled by japanese roboticians

    If that was your favorite story, read Pluto, it's a re-imagining of that arc, quite fucking good honestly.

  • @MrGshinobi

    Yeah definitely the most amazing thing about astroboy its how it STILL holds up even today, you can read it and totally enjoy it and not feel like it's outdated in the themes or the art, because tezuka's style is so unique that it naturally holds up, it's quite inspiring to see that despite being decades old this work is still able to be highly enjoyable, Tezuka was truly a genius.

    • @imamfikri2635

      I think all of robots showed in all manga from Osamu Tezuka can be realized, especially Astro Boy. He's one of best manga creators, many robotic technicians in Japan may interested to develop few prototypes of Astro Boy, Uran, Astro Kitty, and many more. Also I very interested to this manga & anime, full of imaginations which may be realized. More than just a robot, Astro Boy is Japanese manga icon & humanity-engineered

    Watching this video made me realize how fast an anime can be dated when comparing it to manga. In manga you have the artstyle of the author which as seen in the case of Astroboy, still holds up many years later. In anime the animation and sound are quickly outdated because of the ever-evolving technology. Just a quick thought...but an interesting one nevertheless.

      But any fiction techs inside the anime may realized because technologies in real life more evolved, such as special digital robotic systems

  • @GurenSan
    @GurenSan 7 лет назад +15

    I just want to read Astroboy to get the idea of what it is and then proceed to read Pluto, which is Naoki Urasawa's take on the "Greatest Robot on Earth".

    • @MrGshinobi
      @MrGshinobi 7 лет назад +2

      Astroboy is definitely not inferior to pluto, both stories take one theme and adapt it diferently, if you think that because Tezuka's version of the pluto arc is weak because it wasn't as "mature" as Urasawa's version you're deeply mistaken.

    • @GurenSan
      @GurenSan 7 лет назад +1

      I never said it was inferior, if anything Tezuka's might be even more mature in some ways. It's just that I wanted to see how the man that wrote Monster would take on a Astro Boy story.

  • @FortWhenTeaThyme
    @FortWhenTeaThyme 7 лет назад +9

    Literally every top comment: "Pluto is a darker version of Astroboy."

  • @WalkingGirlKoi
    @WalkingGirlKoi 7 лет назад +2

    Oh, yes! Astro Boy was my shit growing up. There's so many issues brought up in this manga and the 80's anime hit me hard as a kid. The idea behind robots as just just weapons or machinery by humans being tested made me like Tezuka a lot as kid, to the point of considering him inspirational.
    There was one volume that was particulary more odd than usual (either 21 or 22) with one boy having a crush on a girl and he meets a robot copy of herself later on after he had possibly killed her? Can't recall all of it.

    • @imamfikri2635
      @imamfikri2635 4 года назад

      Some mysteries about robot girl, Uran? This robot mostly show inside anime, starts in 1963, has long period between Uran's birth and Astro Boy's first day of his life

  • @Henry-fq8fz

    I usually don't pay attention to the Manga Monday videos because I am very unfamiliar with it and it scares me, but once I saw Astro Boy I needed to watch it. It is familiar to me. I know Astro Boy. I saw that Japanese anime. Much like your anime analysis videos, this might just bring me down the deep dark decent into the world of Mangos.

  • @berserkchip
    @berserkchip 6 лет назад

    The origin story is an absolute masterpiece and the fact that every localization bastardizes it out of fear of scarring children is so sad. Fuck children. Make them cry and suffer and feel.
    I recently screen grabbed 50 images from the first anime episode of the original Tetsuwan Atom '60's run to piece together a soundless, wordless, bite-sized version of the origin story, and I'm trying to find a way to upload it. I tried Tumblr but Tumblr kept uploading them out of order. Maybe I'll try Imgur next, idk.
    Outside of that, the only way to get the true full emotional impact of the origin story is reading the original Manga. As good as the 2003 anime is, even the Japanese version of 'that' anime kind of undercut the impact of the origin by showing it out of order and in small flashbacks.

    Have you read Pluto, by Naoki Urazawa? I would love to hear your thoughts on it! :D

  • @id658dif7oyguipb
    @id658dif7oyguipb 7 лет назад

    I recommend reading Pluto, which is a darker retelling of the "Greatest Robot in the World" story. It was written by Naoki Urasawa, the guy who wrote 20th Century Boys and Monster. It's 8 volumes long and a very entertaining read.

  • @Michirin9801

    My only real exposure to Astro Boy has been on the GBA game Astro Boy Omega Factor by Treasure... Pretty good game as you'd expect from them! It's really hard though, I can't get very far in it...

    Astro Boy wasn't the first TV anime. Mogura no Adventure(1958) is the earliest known TV anime and Instant History(1961) is the earliest anime TV series. Astro Boy(1963) is the first anime TV series with 30 minute episodes.

    • @imamfikri2635
      @imamfikri2635 3 года назад

      *1980 because not too complex, but still contains full story. First colored season of astro boy launchs after first play of Kimba the white lion - first colored anime over the world. May contains hidden plots connecting between anime & anime-adopted children cartoons both 1980 & 2003 season **#AstroBoy** **#鉄腕アトム** **#mightyAtom** **#GoGoアトム*

    Most influential? I would guess Ashita no Joe is the most influential single one. For defining all the standard tropes in sports manga, which remained the most popular genre of manga for decades, besides other elements. Tezuka is the most influential manga author but he wrote hundreds of mangas and each is not very influential individually.
