Episode three was stuttering for me, too. I did manage to get the entire thing recorded (and with audio this time!)

If all else fails and they don't even re-air the episodes, I've heard YTV in Japan will be airing Little Astro Boy in Japanese for their educational time block.

Great analysis, Fauna! So, 'Den' & 'ko' are two separate characters? Yeah, her name would be written like 電光 in kanji...following the romanization system used a lot in the 70s/80s, it could be written in English as "Denkoh". The word literally comes out as "lightning", and I know the ...

I'm late to the party, but noting how the English audio is intact, does this mean that the set has episodes one and two dubbed in their entirety? I remember Jay Roth saying that the dub cast did record audio for the first two episodes, and he never knew why they were cut into one episode. If the two...

Episode Four (Six US): Denkou / Into Thin Air

We're back, everyone! Sorry about the gap; I had some school projects to do, and I honestly had to take a break after looking at the dub of episode three. Today's look is at an episode I've long liked, but will the English version be able to catch up? When the episode originally opens in JP, there's...

I think I look the most like Hecate from Princess Knight. We have really similar hair, and I often have the same style of dress as her.

Viva Namida by Yasuyuki Okamura. You may have heard it as the opening for Space Dandy.

Referring to your 1st post, Fauna, you mention the little girl with the cat ear hair band is named 'Vivian.' I must have missed something, because I though her name was never given. In which episode was it stated? I remember forum user mr_skunk referring to the girl as Vivian some time ago, but I m...

Part 1: My Son or Yours

"Look, just tell him we can't go any lower than 3500 wulongs per lot," Risa Hoshigawa ordered over the phone, her free hand pushing through a rack of designer cocktail dresses. "He should know that aluminum lining like that doesn't come cheap." Tobio, meanwhile, skimmed the jewelry racks behind his ...

Risa: Mia madre, la mia memoria

Hey guys, it's been a while since I've posted any of my own fan work here, hasn't it? I have recently been working on an original character and a three part story to go with her. The matter Tobio's mom has been explored a lot of times, and she's usually ill-fated and tragic. (Such as one character I...

Episode Three (Five US): Atom In Space / Destination Deimos

Here we head into episode three. It's important to note that the episode ordering of the dub immediately goes bananas; Sony America really wanted to get into the action immediately, and pushed this character/world building episode to be after the Atlas arc. In JP, we open with the guy (who looks kin...
