Yes he is, he has the power to make everyone around him happy but everytime he makes someone happy the Gods are after him so he has to leave with the West wind

There are two movies of Unico, I have seen both, but both were in Japanese, & I do not recall if they were subtitled. I think VHS tapes in English are available.

Tezuka in English has a bit on Unico, + a link to TOW's page:

there is also a Pilot episode, and Unico has a small role in Black Jack's movie of 2006, he apears in Pinoko's special movie,
He also stars in : Save our fragile earth, where Astro plays a role to,
but for a sweet story Unico has a tragic life.

I guess they think Unico having a tragic life makes for a better story, but please why?
