Thanks a lot! :)

Hahahaha! That goes well with my last attempt in the Photoshop game! :lol:

Devil King didn't change between 1963 and 1980! :D And Uran and Walrus makes a nice dancing couple! :P

If you ever have a chance, I'd love to see that "Greatest Robot" episode, if you have it of course.

Our modest little hero finally tells the story, but I have only found a few funny pics.

Atom is commissioned as Captain of the Mars expidition. So, he must dress for the occasion:

Then, there were scenes of the making of the series:

Was the "making of" part of the episode or was it a DVD extra?

It was part of the episode. First, U finds the photo album & the pic of A in uniform. She asks for a story, which A tells by way of recap. Then, H & Dr. O come over, & Dr. O shows films of behind the scenes of the Robot Land ep., which eventually becomes another recap. Then the cops come over, & U & H dance while others play musical instruments. :lol:

Do the characters somehow acknoweldge that those are "behind the scenes", à la "hey, this is a kids show after all!" (by a scientist in the 1980 Birth of Astroboy)?

As for the dance, I'm willing to make animated gifs if you want. :D

Alas, my friend, I speak very little Japanese; thus, I cannot answer your question. :(

However, I will now upload the gifs.

So you have the complete 1963 series? I thought you had the 36 or so episodes that were released in English (if I'm not totally off...).

Have you already uploaded them or am I just lost? Cause I don't see anything... :unsure:
