Re: New Interviews with Patty Whitely and Jay Rath
Fascinating! On which pages of the magazine can the interview be found?

Re: Tezuka and Atom, and Our World in 2021
Many of the story plots in Tezuka's Mangas were echoed in those of motion pictures. For example, there was a story (I may not remember all of the plot correctly, and I certainly don't remember the episode title) in which a town hated robots, and took their anger out on Atom and another robot. Then ...

Tezuka and Atom, and Our World in 2021
It's been years since I posted a new topic here, but with the year 2022 coming closer, it got me thinking. Eight years from now, it will be 2030. That's the year the 1980s Astro Boy series was set in. The original manga was set even earlier: from 2003 to the mid-2010s. Those years are long gone in o...

Re: 70th anniversary edition to be released Oct 2021
I have zero manga books at the moment, and it will stay this way for quite a while, because I'm trying hard to save money. But wow, these look incredible! 70 years since Atom's first appearance... it makes me wonder what Tezuka might think about today's world. If he hadn't passed away in 1989, he'd ...

Re: New members, please introduce yourselves here
I know! I still remember my nieces as little kids, but they now have kids of their own. I just do not feel as old as I am. I also have nieces and nephews by now, all of them being in the 0 to 5 age range. (Technically, they're the kids of my cousins, but to make things easier I just refer to all th...

Re: New members, please introduce yourselves here
Second chances are occasionally appropriate. Welcome to adulthood! Thanks! It feels strange, knowing that I'll be 30 in a few years. It only seems like yesterday when I was a hyper, excitable, and at times bad-tempered 15-year-old who discovered this forum for the first time. Time really goes by fa...

Re: New members, please introduce yourselves here
Hey, thank you for the warm welcome! I read that an Anime for Pluto was supposed to be released last year so I hope it was just delayed. I've seen something about that on YouTube! It'll probably come out at some point, which is fantastic, because it honestly looks great. As far as I've seen, recent...
