Astro Boy (1980)

Finished

鉄腕アトム

In a future where autonomous robots are a source of social tension, Professor Tenma creates a robotic boy in the image of his deceased son, Tobio. However, the grieving scientist soon realizes his invention can never truly replace his child and abandons him.

The robot is later rescued from a circus by the kind Dr. Ochanomizu, who names him Tetsuwan Atom (Astro Boy). Under his new guardian's care, Atom becomes a hero dedicated to fighting crime and injustice. Yet, his pacifist nature and childlike innocence are constantly challenged by the violent conflicts and harsh realities he must face.
