Only thing don,t like about Astroboy cartoons & comics is the flamboyance, third wall breaking, silly almost campy humour. In moderation,within reason & properly placed or else is just stupidity. Sorry to any Astroboy & robot character fans out there, am big fan of robots like Transformers, Terminator, and adore Astroboy. That being said find it discouraging & disheartening to find that Osama Tezuka himself didn't seem to take his own creation seriously & just made it stupid & campy,despite the complex interesting sci Fi action adventure premise. Understand culture & humour is different in Japan & was supposed to be as Dr. Tenma himself put So what?! This is a kids show anyways?! Love Astroboy though really. Didn,t discover character till teen years, would,ve loved to have seen as child. Not against humor in action adventure comics, know nothing is 100% serious, though look at something like Tintin comics the humor there,s on par with the story isn,t overblown stupidity detracting from the main story & overwhelming it for the reader, or viewer as it were.
