AstroBoy Online Forums

Has there ever been an episode where someone try to use a virus attack on Astroboy or is he virus proof- thanks and hugs everyone
PS-Not to destroy Astroboy but his goodness- which would be a sad episode if it could be done- Astroboy has to be good to be Astroboy

Yes, there has been indeed, in both the 60's and '03 series if I'm not mistaken.
However, in the '03 episode 'The Large Venture Of Micro', Minimini Hakase's henchman missed the chance to infect Astro with the robot virus by wrongly infecting his sister with it instead. Hence Minimini Hakase used Uran as a decoy to deactivate Astro.

I guess biological viruses are no hassle for robots, but when it comes to robot-viruses things are looking quite more serious.

Thanks and hugs Strange Wings

Some people on this forum did have a lot of fun trying to imagine Astro attacked by a computer virus IIRC. Wasn't there something about it in the caption thread? I'm too tired to look right now but it was a shot with Astro's chestdoor opened.

That was a parasite, not a virus. However, the concept is about the same, though.

Yeah, I think it's located somewhere in the abysses of the photoshop game thread.

It was a BSoD (blue screen of death) on his internal screen. I can't find the image either for now, I think it was from DrFrag.

Thanks everyone- i hope Astroboy would be virus proof- hugs
