I do not believe this is currently available in an English translation. However, CD Japan sells the original language DVDs without subtitles: 60s sets start on this page.
:D

I have greatly enjoyed all the Japanese audio DVDs I have seen, regardless of the language being foriegn. :D

Welcome to the forum, and I think I've once seen that episode
but I don't clearly remember the volume of the tape. I remember renting it the libary and I watch it and still I
don't remember the volume of the damn tape :angry:
but I guess you should type it on Yahoo or Google and see if you can spot it :D



And still my spelling sucks :cry:

I add this: I have researched the two sets of episode titles, and cannot match "grass boy" to any synopsis of any episode.

Here is an Englsh site that deals with the English version:
http://www.astroboy.tv/

Unfortunately, there is no synopsis for this episode.

Here is the Tezuka site's page for the 1963 Astroboy series:

Here is the episode guide:

If you remember any details from this one, perhaps you can find it here. If you cannot find it, you might try describing it here so that anyone who has seen the 1963 series (I just do not feel at liberty to say that member's name, although he has publicly stated that he has the entire series on DVD) can help you.
:lol:
