| Oh cool, another prequel manga one of Tezuka's works gets an adaptation, this could be interesting...hopefully the story will be a bit dark :D |
 |
| looks interesting imo. |
 |
| Nice, since it looked like the manga wasn't gonna get scans any time soon. Need to pick up the original Astro Boy though. |
 |
| i really hope this turn out to be good... not pluto LVL of good at least decent... young black jack really mediocore... |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| Looks pretty cool actually :3 |
| HOLY FUCK THAT SOUNDS GREAT from the guy who did Patlabor nig gguuuhhh a seinen Tetsuwan Atom is GREAT but if it turns out to be another Young Black Jack, then this can go FUCK ITSELF |
| Great idea from an Headgear member. I am interested in this manga now! I suppose it will show a very young Tenma and young Ochanomizu during their early years of robotics in parallel? (or woud they happen to work together in this rewrite?) @zetsu_shoren You might want to read Pluto (from Urasawa). |
| Curious. Never was a big fan of Astro Boys but I might look into this a bit more. |
 |
| This makes me wish for Naoki Urasawa's "Pluto" to get anime adaptation even more :/ The true definitive Astroboy edge. |
 |
| Looks nice. I will definitely watch this. |
 |
| >Mecha looks like something i will avoid |
 |
Fai said: oh yeah.. this also really make me wonder.. why this series still don't get any adaptation? this series shoud be very popular, right?This makes me wish for Naoki Urasawa's "Pluto" to get anime adaptation even more :/ at this point, i see billy bat has higher chace to get adaptation... |
