After ASTROBOY was on tv , Kimba ,GIGANTOR, 8THMAN AND SPEED RACER, all within a year or two. It was a great time to be a kid. We had Anime since 1964 in NYC. Plus tons of other cartoons new and old, it was a child paradise of endless cartoons and kid shows like Soupy Sales , Chuck McCann, Officer Joe Bolton, Captain Jack McCarthy Sorry to say, kids tv is terrible now.

Yep, i just checked on tezuka in english site, the 1960′s episode 32 Moon Monsters was the only full color 1960′s episode,but it was shown in b/w on tv. Wow , a rare color 1960′s Astroboy.

I just watched a 1963 ” COLOR” Astroboy , Moon Monsters. I was convinced they were all in B/W. being one of the reasons it was taken off the air. Everyone wanted color in the 1960′s. Anyone have any info on this color episope.

Astroboy was the …
Astroboy was the first time in my life I saw a hero who stood up for someone who was different and oppressed. The Episode where he
saves the little human boy from being stuck in the water pipes. The people hated the robots and wanted to destroy them. It made me feel there was hope in this world for people like me.

Nothing is as good as the original, this cartoon started all American anime. The first thing we noticed was the really big eyes on the characters,a totally new look for cartoons. And a theme song like we never heard before,it was great. Still is.

LOL! I remember watching Speed Racer and Kimba the White Lion as a kindergartner and realizing that there was something about those shows that made them different than Bugs Bunny, The Flintstones, and all the other cartoons on the tube, yet I wasn’t quite able to put my finger on what that “something” was.

If they used the 1963 cartoon , no one would go,except people in their 50′s . Its better that Astro is going strong and not forgotten. Even though i watched Astroboy as a new cartoon in the 1960′s in B/W, im glad he’s still around for new generations to enjoy. The new movie will spark kids to investigate the origins of Astroboy. So, dont worry after kids watch this new movie, they will wind up seaching out and watching the original 1963 version on dvd.

I have seen the trailer for the new film and I have got say I am bitterly disappointed. It is just plain awful. Not true to the original and contemptuous of the kids who watched it all those years ago. I just hope with all my might they never decide to remake Prince Planet. I’m afraid that would be just too much to take.

FYI, when a rocket is moving a payload, hp can be calculated. For example, based on data from Boeing and NASA, a 747 cruising at Mach 0.9 at 40,000 ft using 55,145 lb of thrust will generate 87,325 hp.

Oh, man! I’m all choked up!
I had such a love-hate feeling toward Astro Boy as a little girl. I loved the song but wasn’t too thrilled about the “weird” way it was drawn. (In comparison, Fractured Fairytales and Casper the Friendly Ghost were my favs, and I loved how FF was drawn.)
Seeing Astro Boy now all these DECADES later sure brings back memories.
Thanks so much for posting.

they were probably going for a version that would appeal to an international audience. plus english is cool in the east like how japanese is cool n the west.

Something that i could never figure out, why are some signs and words in the cartoon written in english when it was made for Japanese kids? Other cartoons like 8thman have all Japanese signs on the buildings and doors.
