Synopsis
Possibly one of the most well known characters in the history of anime, Astro Boy was originally the creation of Japan's prime comic-creator, Osamu Tezuka. First seen in comic books, the character went on to appear on television in a black-and-white series throughout the 1960s and '70s, all before starring in this 2004 colour series. Set in the year 2030, the show follows Astro Boy, a small young robot who is adopted and trained to save the universe after being deserted by his inventor. Dr. Elefun takes the robot in, teaching him how to use his powers for the good of humanity. With his giving personality, flying ability, and inhuman strength, who better to take on the bad forces of the world than this diminutive boy-machine?

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Anime. Sheer brilliance, must buy for any fan old or new, 17 Dec 2007
The hilariously tragic adventures of a naive robot boy..This is like the kinda programmes you watched as kid, only with no happy endings all wrapped up at the end of the show, in fact poor astro really just cant catch a break! Everything that could go wrong does and it only endears you to him more. The animation itself is stunning considering its age. This is absolutely classic anime, whatever kind of anime youre into your collection is not complete, or never really started, without at least this much astro
