hehehehe as always, China will have to ask for the help of Japan to not make the Olympics a complete disaster... Is that why their "boss" was in Japan?
Hopefully Japan gets the 2016 Olympics, that would be cool!

*looks at cheer video* Wow, Mr. Baseball was right. The Japanese really get into the sport. I think we've moved on to football here.

You know what's kind of funny? The fact that (can't remember exactly) these are either the same Summer Games or at least the Summer Games prior to the exact ones that Tokyo was going to host in Akira! Anime hyper

With Astro Boy on their side I think that pesky Tetsuo will be nothing to fear.

Unless I'm reading it wrong, I think this article has totally nothing to do with the Beijing Olympics 2008. Astro Boy and Pokemon are only promoting Japanese bids for Olympics 2016. They are not promoting the Olympics happening this year.
