Yes great article.
It shows how they take Astro into a more adult or preadult pubescent stage.
Making the violence and sex more palatable for the censors.

I think Astro's got a cute tush and all but I think the Japanese seem just a little TOO into his bottom

and wait, back up. The Japanese are getting a special 3D version? >< Nice article. Good find there, Astroboygf.

indeed. I think Astro still looked very cute. I don't even mind the clothes really, 'cause I know there are far too many stupid Westerners that are going to try to claim Astro in his undies is trying to endorse child porn or something. I get the feeling he'll be in his trademark short shorts near the end when he fights off that alien invasion that's supposed to happen

I kinda thought so too at first, but it didn't bother me. While on the other hand, I can see why they took them out

I don't mind the clothes either. Astro looks great in it. Only when Astro engages into a battle, I think thats when he revert to his usual black short and red boots due to his clothes shredding off from whatever damage he may sustain.
