I used to watch this show back in 1984 here in Canada soooo much, if one saturday something was preventing me to watch it, I was programming my vcr to not loose any single episode!
It is Osamu Tezuka most famous character: Astroboy, in a not so distant future, robot are capable to think as humans and even to have emotions...Astroboy lives with his sister and parents (who are robots too), goes to school (with humans)...
But in a world where robots are considered inferiors being (just like black peoples back in the 19th century), Astro is using his super powers to fight for justice and help others... but he has a lots of enemies, and an evil brother who wishes to become master of the universe : ATLAS, and Astro is the only one capable of stopping him...
This is truly one of the best japanese show ever, in many countries around the world(including USA), however like many anime, ASTROBOY was censored in the US version, and the french dub in my country is based on the US version, not directly from the japanese version, so many things were cut and lost.
Another weird thing, the episodes order in the dubbed version(except from the first 3 episodes) is a complete mess! Like is someone had drop the tape pile during the dubbing process and never been able to put them back in the correct order...
A must seen, even today!
