Who's familiar with this cartoon? I used to watch it after school when I was knee high, and I remember it being ''more'' than most kid's shows... I found it really depressing and dark back then for some reason, despite the obvious cuteness, and I haven't seen it in well over a decade. I'm downloading an episode right now, I can not fucking wait...
Astroboy
Looking at this pictures, I recognize some of them, fucking MASSIVE deja vu and nostalgia. The big metal guy, the orange guy with his girl, the big nose doc, Astrogirl...
I am a slave to my own nostalgia lust.

roomate is reading it for his Japanese Culture class or something. He seems to enjoy it, though i think it is more of a classic, than it is moderly humorus.

Astroboy or Tetsuan Atom is a classic..yes it is quite mature and adultish..Osamu Tezuka is a legend of Anime and Manga..
It was one of his cartoons Simba the Lion that good ripped off for the Lion King with as much as an acknowledgement from the bastards at Disney..
