AICN Wishes Astro Boy A Belated Birthday!!

Hey, everyone. "Moriarty" here with some Rumblings From The Lab.

Oooooops. We missed this one, so better late than never. I’m going to make this quick, because the sun’s coming up and I want to get some sleep before I have to start working on my other stuff today. I’m glad this letter came in, though, so we could set this straight:

Hi...

You know, with all the stuff you guys have been saying about how great The Animatrix is and Spirited Away is the greatest anime of alll time, you compleatly forgot about the King Of them All.

ASTRO BOY.

Today is the celebration of Astro's birth. Mind you it was the day he was created in the story, but folks are celebrating it in Japan as a major holiday, it seems.

I really don't know if you've seen this, but I decided to scour around online for Astro and I came up with this link which is pretty cool. Mind you, it's in Japanese, and there's no Quicktime, but it shows what I think is part of some new stuff they're doing for the old boy. Plus, it is amazing.

CLICK HERE!!

Please pass this along to fans of Anime to show them who it all started with.

Sam Johnson

(As real a name as it gets)

Thanks, Sam. Nicely done.

"Moriarty" out.
