I know most of you folks don't give a whit about Astro Boy and other Tezuka stuff, but I just wanted to plug this because I think it's a great article.

That was a great article, thanks for posting it. I love Astro Boy, and I can't wait to see what the new series is like.

Wow. This feels like when 1992 rolled around and there no Gentics War like Star Trek claimed. No Khan either. Odd, huh. (Yes, I could have said 2001 and stuff about Angles causing troble at the South Pole, but Star Trek and Khan is just as cool. Razz)

Oh! This is great...I can run down there tomorrow and catch the birthday bash.

I'm a big Kimba fan and I usually keep an eye out for these things, but this one almost got by me. Glad you posted this.

What a week! Spirited Away in it's second weekend run, Cowboy Bebop in the movie house this weekend, and now this AstroBoy birthday bash. Can an anime weekend get any better than this!

Thank you Lord Byronius, that was a very good article. I must confess to being ignorant of a considerable amount of what was presented, although I had read the basic premise of Astroboy before and I appreciated it. It certainly laid the base for what we have come to appeciate in anime today.
