Well, admittedly it does take some getting use to...especially if you've just watched the '80's series, since it's different and all that...
But I think it was done pretty well. Modernising a bit without taking Astro out...
(Fyi, epsolon freakin ROCKS)
Lol. Do you mean 'Epsilon'? I guess you do

Ok i understand but i still dont like the way tenma was put and the whole explosion now that made me cry Astro exploding on episode 48
Personally I like sad parts instead of being happy-happy-happy all the time, but I guess that us just my opinion. For me, that part was epically epic.
