AndroidLB said:Yes, as the movie more or less the complete original story from the 2vol manga. And if I remember it has everything meaningful and the best from it. Haven't watched the TV series but I think the story differs alot from the original manga. And this is the perfect adaptation.
This information is not entirely accurate. I just went through all of it my self so let me clear things up. This film is based from the 2nd half of Osamu Tezuka's manga. It is a practical 1:1 adaptation of the source material with the exception of the small epilogue. Understand though as this is only half of the manga story line, there will be key information and character building that you will be missing unless you either Read Chapters 1-10 or watch the first 60's Tv show which is a very loose adaptation of the 1st half of the manga with the majority of it containing filler as was the norm of most anime series that aired in the 60's.
