AstroBoy Online Forums

I just saw the Hugh Jackman robot movie Real Steel today, and I noticed a striking resemblance between the film's plot and "Uran's Twin" from the 80s you-know-what, especially the robot boxing concept. Also, in the film, the kid's robot's name is--you guessed it--Atom. Coincidence, anyone?

I first discovered Astro by accident in some magazine (forgot what it was called) and on Manga's Astro site, both in 2004.

Astro isn't that weak here in the States; in fact it may have inspired some American animators (just look at "The Powerpuff Girls" - Buttercup's hairstyle is kinda reminiscent of Uran's).

Cute.

That is SUPER RARE stuff there.

Thnx a lot.
