(I'm working on a comic about humanoid robots, so I have to think about this sort of thing quite a lot. ^^ ;)

I had also thought one day that breathing was also a good way for cooling (a variation of fans in our computers).
The real sign that someone has become a fanatic is that he completely loses his sense of humor about some important facet of his life. When humor goes, it means he's lost his perspective.

Okayy, so I found it ! Astroboy 2003 Episode 43 (Japanese Version) :D

:lol: It's not real sweat. Since it is a preprogrammed response. It's more or less a display. Possibly to bring the viewer in closer for the attack. :ninja:
He could be mocking. If the viewer were Uran it could be a deception or diversion. But Astro cannot really sweat. :astro: :whistling:

It annoys the heck out of me too. I think it was probably taken from WingedMushroomOfDoom's videos, which are Pan & Scan videos squeezed to widescreen.

No, it's not, that screenshot was taken directly from my own Astroboy DVD, and yeah, it is from the Japanese version of Astroboy

I think that Tezuka when drawing Astro Boy didn't think too much as too the capabilities of the robots, instead putting the focus on the plot and many other stuff. Maybe he only drew it to show that Astro was nervous... :unsure:

Ok, but then it must've been taken from unofficial DVDs as well.

Here it is with proper dimensions. Still cropped on the sides however, as the show should normally be widescreen (16:9) and not 4:3.
