I'm not sure it was a "real" crush. Maybe it was something like "hero-worship"?

I know it obviously wasn't a real crush since he was only like five. I was just saying that the only people who've ever had a "crush" on me were toddlers. So they were toddler crushes which really aren't real crushes anyway. :lol: I just thought it was cute so I shared it.

I think Fred Patten's book has the story; as I recall, :tezuka: thought the serial was too silly, that it was not up to his standards. I have seen quite a few serials, & none of them, from DICK TRACY to PHANTOM CREEPS, were very good, at least not when compared to movies.

He definitely has a thing for blondes... I bet if Bem was around long enough he would have eventually started to crush on them!

WAIT - I have yet another blond!!

Spica, the transforming android from the Astro Boy with built-in soft drink dispensing era. And heck he even asked her to be his girlfriend and live with him!!! :rolleyes: Of course this is after he pulled out her antennas because she was trying to advise her creators to destroy the earth. :eek:

See? Even someone as perfect as Astro has problems in love!

He had MAJOR love problems as nearly none of them work out. And the one that almost did (if it did) was with an alien about to destroy the earth.
Yeah. I think Tezuka was trying to hint that love doesn't always work out how you want it, even for someone as great as Astro. Or not.

Tezuka liked to completely and utterly crush relationships in most of his works, now that I look back on some of his works. Usually a love interest dies horribly or they die as a pair together horribly. It seems to be very rare that a happy ending occurs where both persons are alive and together. I wonder why that is. I wonder if he himself was unlucky in love or if it was just a simple and easy drama outlet for his stories.
