Here is another unknown character, the one in yellow... I might be wrong, but I think I saw him somewhere in Tezuka's characters gallery. I can't seem to find him and I lack the patience to browse through all the pages again, to be honest...

His name is Ambassador Magma. I saw him in the GBA game. I just did a search on Google with "magma" and "tezuka" as keywords, and the first page was this one :D

The real sign that someone has become a fanatic is that he completely loses his sense of humor about some important facet of his life. When humor goes, it means he's lost his perspective.

Hahaha! Good! Thank you, fafner!

And for the other character in the pic, well I don't recall having seen him anywhere else, but if he is, somebody please tell me. :)

Magma, his wife Mol, and their child Gum were all in the 2003 series, in the episode:

38

Request of エミリー

English:
38

Battle Bot

Although Gum was a boy in previous incarnations, she was clearly a girl in that one. Moreover, for you Family Guy fans, I am sure her E-voice was the same as Meg's. :lol:

He was in the same game too, not very far. As for the episodes, I don't remember having seen him anywhere, but I didn't remember about Magma either, even now that jeffbert has told about episode 38... Maybe I should watch it again :rolleyes:

Hehe, me too! :P Thanks. Any more apparitions I should know about to become a more knowledgleable Tezuka fan?

I know the answer, but I will refrain from posting it. I'm curious to find out if somebody else remembers, or noticed it! ;)

I think I know too, I have a fuzzy image in my cloudy mind :P I'm not sure though... :unsure:

It would be funny if we didn't think of the same thing! :lol: I doubt it, but who knows!
