OH GOD NO 4KIDS. :cry: Nope. No. Nuh-uh. All of the nopes. All of them. Actually, though, I had once read that Kids WB, one of the distributers, did not have very much faith in the series. In some respect, they're right; Astro Boy can be pretty alienating to newer audiences (in the target demographi...

I have no idea how to make costumes of any description, let alone such a deceptively simple design. Maybe you should find a cosplayer, and ask them? Even if they didn't make it themselves, they can still point you in the right direction (and fortunately for you, most of them DO, in fact, make their ...

The original plot could've been different- I heard that they swapped directors (as well as axed over half of the working staff) about halfway through development. I really wish I could see more of the early animation from before that period. Astro even looked different (granted, he was still too muc...

Actually, if he was around, I don't think he'd object. Rather, he would probably hang around and help things along, assuming he wasn't in charge. It'd be like how Shigeru Miyamoto helps with each new Zelda game: he's not in the actual process anymore, but he still helps every now and then, alongside...

[QUOTE=Little Brown Fox;204178]I skipped ahead to watch that specific episode, actually. Black Jack is totally badass, but the subject matter of the show sometimes makes me queasy. ^-^; I read in an older thread once that Atom shows up in at least two more Black Jack manga stories (or was it just o...

So, yesterday I was tooling around the Internet, poking around places like Amazon and Dark Horse, and looking at all the neat stuff I'm never gonna be able to buy. (Including Hyrule Historia, from Dark Horse, but that's an unrelated matter.) After a while, I decided to search for a place where I cou...

I wasn't suggesting that Uran was named after Uranus; just pointing out similarities in pronunciation, as far as most English adaptations go. The idea that it promotes nuclear warfare is outstandingly absurd. That wasn't the reason for Atom's name change, and history is what keeps his dub name the s...
