Where do you see Astro Boy in 50 years?

Astro Forever? what was funny?

Toys isn't exactly on topic, is it?

No, seriously, toys (or all Astro things for that matter) help spread the popularity of Astro Boy. So a definite yes! After all, the more the merrier - and with Astro toys its definitely the case!
But that doesn't mean companies should clog up the shelves with the weird, random or simply fail Astro figures posted on the other thread or lousy Astro games.

And back to the original topic, science fiction is what people think of the future (or at least the ones where the setting is the future anyway) and Astro Boy is BOTH anime and science fiction. And they'res a large chance that the children of tomorrow would look at Astro Boy of today and see what people of the 21st century thought of robots.

I think Tezuka was more realistic when coming up with his ideas of the future

[Androids101]

Science fiction can be realistic

[atoms_gf]

yes it can i am acully like really smart about weird siber-space stuff because of astroboy or like things about preostirictimes like the astroboy episode with guonoum

[Astronomical girl]

yeah but the key to surviving is that the fun is passed on

[Androids101]

But even when this (or at least most of this) becomes a reality, people could still look back at AstroBoy and enjoy.

In 50 years Astro needs to actually EXIST! I think it's a definite possibility

That's how I feel, too, and I believe he will evolve into the first robot to become human (use Tobio's DNA to regenerate a human body for Astro that integrates various super powers...) Astro of the future....!!XD

hey if Disney can pull off being around just as long as Astro boy then Astro boy should be around
