In the original story, Astro was a child made in the image of the great robotics scientist Dr. Tenma's son, Tobio, who was killed in a car accident. Dr. Tenma eventually grew frustrated when no matter how hard he tried, the robot could not really be his lost son, and sold him to be a robot toy. Astro was found by Dr. Ochanomizu who rebuilt him and turned him into the character we know as Astro Boy, and went on to have many adventures. The theme of Astro Boy was always the desire for man to exist in harmony with science, and to use it to better mankind, not take away from it. The original stories are tales of predjudice and meant to make the reader/viewer question, a tradition this new Astro Boy continues today.

'''Alternative Names:''' Astro Boy/Tetsuwan Atomu (Mighty Atom) 
'''Airdate:''' Spring 2003
Produced by Tezuka Productions Japan Ltd.

In this, the third incarnation of Astro Boy to be animated (it was previously done in 1963 and 1980, and there was even a live action show done in the 1960's as well), we find a new Astro Boy for a new generation.

==Celebania==
"Astroboy- Interesting but childish. Worth watching for nostalgia's sake. ..."

==Ms.Jadey==
"-hate the proportions of the animation; the plot's okay, but a little
blantant"

==humanbean==
"like the style .. mood music is too much"

==Minako==
"Ack the noses! Ack! It's cute but really bizarre. Admittedly, it was a lot better than I'd thought it'd be. I get a 'let's make friends with all the bad guys' vibe from it sadly."

==Pat==
"It didn't suck."

==Crazy Leo==
"Was very impressed with the story."

==Kenneth==
"A vast improvemnt over the 1980's version."

==Ultra Rob==
" Although it seems a little much like Megaman (Rockman) for my tastes, having seen the second episode I am majorly hooked and look forward to more. There is something charming about this series, and I dread what they will do to it in the forthcoming dub."
