To quote Cybotron, who himself 'quotes' me, except that he omits the quotation marks:
"1.Professor Tenma is Tezuka's version of Baron Victor von Frankenstein, and Atom is his version of Frankenstein's creation. Note that I compare to the novel, not the films about Frankenstein.
1a. Ridiculous!!! Tenma is based on Rotwang the master Robot maker from Fritz Langs 'metropolis'."
Do you deny the obvious similarities? Do you think that "Professor Tenma is Tezuka's version of Baron Victor von Frankenstein" is the same as saying, "Prof Tenma is equal to or equated to Baron Victor von Frankenstein"? Do you think that "Atom is his version of Frankenstein's creation" is equivalent to saying "Atom is a monster"? Do you think that I said that Tezuka based Tenma on Dr. Frankenstein? If my statement suggests that, it was unintentional. In retrospect, I could have worded it differently. My opening statements are the ones with which you take issue, but if you bothered to read further, you would have seen the explicit elements that I compared.
"2.Frankenstein created his monster just to see if it were possible to do so. He cared nothing for its welfare or happiness.
Tenma had a specific reason for creating Atom, but during the design process, he obviously went mad, & rather than merely making a 'replacement' for Tobio, he added rockets, machine guns, etc (depending on whichever version we consider). He only wanted to relieve his own pain of having lost his son, he cared nothing for its welfare or happiness.
2a.ludicrous. Astro is closer to the Golem than Frankenstein...
Created for security purposes.... And is similar to Golem and Gort, though Gort came after Astro, He is the only Robot with WMD that I can think of right now....."
Ludicrous, how so? You fail to refute my assertions. Whether or not Atom has any similarities to Gort is beside the point. Likewise any similarity between Tenma and Rotwang is also beside the point. If you cannot see this, you have a problem, my friend. The fact remains that both scientists created artificial beings for the reasons I have stated, and neither cared a whit about those beings' needs, they only cared about their own desires. In this respect, Tenma and Frankenstein are similar. Likewise, their creations share similarities in that they were both rejected by their creators. Reread my original post & you might just see that I not only noted these similarities, but also a few differences. You have quoted my words, but failed to even make the slightest attempt at disproving them. I suggest you do some reading on the subject of English composition. My comparisons are valid, whether you like them, or not. I do not require your approval to know that my analysis is correct.
B)
I hope they make a sequel They did sort of leave it open for one, remember Tima's voice coming out of the radio saying "Where am I?". A sequel would be awesome.
