Watched a trailer got hella confused and now I know less than going in blind... good job netflix? Astroboy... did not really vibe with it. Cyborg 009... that was a bit better; but bad guy was just not interesting enough. Monster... well I feel Doctor Strange movie tells the main characters story better (the problems of being a good doctor I mean). But like I have a hard time recommending it because it has such weird ass pacing that moves as fast as a slug but rushes all the same. I do like it. Pluto... confused me by seeming like a cross between the 3 works mentioned above. I guess you could say the movie Terminator but with a Robot 6 like feel...? So you get my confusion right. Maybe this episode gives me some needed clarity.

Watch the dub PLEASE

😢

😭😭😭😭😭

No...He found a SON!!!😢

And I used to hate AI so much for the idea of it replacing human creativity.

@@MedusaLegend and so did the old man

Yes, the jp name for Astro Boy is Tetsuwan Atom (Tetsuwan means "iron arm" or "steel arm")

Well he didn’t ask the mangaka of Astro Boy because Osamu Tezuka has been dead since 1989. He got permission from Tezuka’s estate. Masao Maruyama, The founder of the studio that animated this, Studio M2, also founded Mappa and Madhouse and was friends with Tezuka and is friends with Urasawa as well.

Pluto's story comes from the Astroboy arc called "The World's Strongest Robot" which, in essence, deals with the same thing seen in Pluto except that the latter has more detective things.

Btw the mysterious doctor who healed Sir Duncan is Black Jack

original name

Welp, I am crying now

Me too brother

i can never argue with that, i love that mantis guy...

Oh yah, voice actor is also same.

It would’ve been nice to see a glimpse of his handsome stitched face, but alas it was a decent cameo 😅

Easter egg

Not one of, THE best show of the year.

Best show of the year SECONDED @@KegOfMeat

@@KegOfMeatyeah no

@@Jaedyn0727Yeah yes.

@@thegodofsoapkekcario1970 no lmao. it’s peak tho

And here I thought it was Dr. Tenma touring around Europe and doing his good deed of the day while hunting down a Monster

@@syrusangi8743 Tenma is great surgeon but Jack is a literal miracle worker.

they are both great doctors without licenses well I guess tenma technicaly lost his license

but black jack usually takes something of the same value in return

but its a fun easter egg knowing that Urasawa made it canon that atom and black jack are in the same universe

True but most people is not seeing it so Frieren will win

​@@Twoseconds001honestly, both deserve it

​@@finallycanchangethenamenot359Frieren, Pluto, Vinland Saga S2, this whole year has had amazing anime

@@finallycanchangethenamenot359 agreed, both are good

Imaginé a world which have 20th Century boys with this animation Quality

i pray we get 20th century boys adapted into an anime in our lifetimes, such an important story i wish more people would experience

@@try2fly It’s actually opposite of that especially if you prefer Seinen genre

I'm also disappointed. in the story, animation, the vibe .... I think it's being overrated hearing others saying ____ aspect of the anime is the best I have seen in anime ... like chill not enough animation, too much talking

@@drwalka10 I think too much people are driven to like anime because of action. Not that it's bad or anything but it's refreshing to see something like Pluto in a world of full action nonsense. Indeed, it's not the top but it's good.

@@drwalka10 Sounds like this kind of anime is not for you rather than being overrated. And beleive me, i am deeply in love with shonen animes such as dragonball z, naruto, KnY, etc. and of course i won´t say they are bad but those shows rarely come with a deeper level in plot, character development, etc. On the other handUrasawa´s work (monster, Pluto, 20th century boys) is special, actually it focuses on a good storytelling. it is a real shame that you cannot appreciate something like that,

bro said not enough animation and too much talking @@drwalka10 ☠ new gen shonen fans are doomed

A lot of anime out there is just for cheap quick thrills. People watch it for the girls more then they do for stories and become addicted to that type of content. It's like poeple looking for a bunch of beer or vodka to get mad drunk fast, ignoring stuff like fine crafted wine over the addiction of that drunkenness.

I’m an artist and that’s the reason why i really love that episode and it resonated with me so much. but yeah the AI right now is not the same as North No.2

Not surprised since its the same writer as the one who made Monster.

@@Kimi-xp2thand billy bat and 20th century boys all master pieces

He is a god

Original story by Osamu Tezuka (the God of Manga) and a retelling by Naoki Urasawa a modern master of manga. Can't go wrong with that team

It sounds like that, but Im pretty sure his name is as intended. He was originally called Gerhardt in the manga, but Gesicht is another name in some of the original adaptations. Gesicht is german for "Face", and most of the robots are named in the language that they originate from in the story.

Haven't seen it

Nah, monster still better but it's ok your preference after all 😂

​@@FreshestAnimeafter Pluto, you must

Monster is in my opinion the greatest crime drama cat and mouse in all manga. The anime has a slightly slower pacing, but Urasawa does not miss

If all episodes are not hype, then not worth watching. As you said, the series is mediocre.

@@drewpaupanekis4710it’s not mediocre have you even watch ep one it’s a masterpiece not even joking

None of it is mediocre... The side story with the old man and North number 2 is a masterpiece in terms of writing and character development on it's own.

@@ianmcclure3936 someone who gets it ep 1 was a masterpiece

@@stillkountin The whole series is a masterpiece to be honest. Urasawa just never misses when it comes to great storytelling with compelling character. Really hoping we get a 20th Boys Adaptation in the future.

Oh, I plan on it. I've heard its cut some stuff for sure

Well I watched the first episode and just recently checked the manga to see any differences. Overall the adaptation is veeeery faithful to the manga, I only found one scene that was cut completely from the first episode, it is when the protagonist (whose name I struggle to spell) is talking with a travel agency operator about his plans for going to Japan, I do agree it is an important scene and through the dialogue we get to know the character a little better, it is an important part because it allows us to see him doing something more mundane and to take a look on his thoughts on his marriage. I do agree that it shouldn't have been cut, but other than that everything on the first episode is adapting the source material faithfully, some dialogues are cut but honestly they are not that much important. For example, there's one when Paul thinks north 2 left him, he tries to call him to fix the flowers and the smell around the house out of habit, when he realizes north 2 is not coming he says something like "I cannot do anything by myself" Honestly? I don't see any problem cutting out that dialogue, the visual storytelling did a good enough job showing how useless and alone he feels when he thinks he was abandoned again, the shots of dirty plates and the house looking empty and less in order represented that. Maybe the biggest criticism about the adaptation of the first episode (outside of cutting an entire scene that I believe is important) it's that the pacing is too fast, I do agree that I felt a little overwhelmed by how fast the story was moving, but I think that comes down to taste, I honestly believe the pacing was right before crossing the line of being too fast to be enjoyable, but it never did. Overall I think it's a worthy adaptation, and we can clearly see the passion put into the project.

​@@oscarchavezavellan2738 sometime a few words can mean a lot, in 2nd Episode Atom asked Dr Ochamizu if there is any defect that caused Brau-1589 to kill human. Dr Ocha said, "no the AI was perfect", thus Atom said "Perfect ?" the english sub wrote "a perfect AI that can kill human, what does it mean ? maybe he is the most human of them all" in manga translation that i read "a perfection that kills people, what does that mean ? isnt it what we call, a "human" ?" i just found the manga translation is deeper because in Atom's mind the perfect AI is basically just human brain, like what Dr. Tenma said, the perfect brain is capable of making mistakes also i tried to read to read japanese sub but i cant understand but i think its kinda the same with the manga translation

​@@oscarchavezavellan2738oh ..brotha.....I wholeheartedly agree But the thing is that ep 1 is the best one adapted Now do the same for ep 3😂😂😂

Why do manga readers always have a problem with something. This anime is goated
