Astroboy "grew up?

[Astro Boy2866]

I'm learning Tagalog because that's what my moms entire side of the family speaks and I didn't like not being able to understand them.

Astro looking grown up looks scary

dpnt forget the word freaky! o_0

@ Astronomical and Atoms gf -- noooo he's not scary or freaking looking. Just wait until you're older -- trust me, you're opinion with change! XD

[atoms_gf]

i know what you mean aprilseven but i just cant think about astro being older its weird i would like him to stay young

[Androids101]

Yeah, the way Astro grew up must be because he upgraded himself like Atlas did in the '80s series.

But why would he want to do so in the first place?

: 'Cause I don't want to be CUTE anymore!

Tezuka: Okaaaaaay...

[QUOTE=Astro Boy8629;115934]Oh, well I'm in Spanish 3 honors as a freshman

I'm trilangual: English, Spanish, and Tagalog (a Filipino language)

@ AB8629 -- WOW !! that is GREAT!! Good for you!

@ Kuro hazama -- there's another episode - Jeffbert has a link somewhere and on Tezuka in English - "Japanese People from Outer Space" that features doubles of all the characters. But the "Tobio from Space" never died, and he grew up. Jeffbert had posted this (see below) image of "Space Tobio" holding up "Earth Astro" -- interesting how he appears to have ONE spike instead of two (unless that's the angle).

BTW all the "space" characters have big ears.

I've been meaning to ask Jeffbert if he had another image or two of Space Tobio, so we could get a straight-on look at him...

This is from an episode that never got translated to English, and I didn't see Space Tobio in the original manga.

I tried to find the thread, but so far, have failed. I know those images are on the forum, but not where.

@Jeffbert - I know there's a thread is on Tezuka in English, and contained only one image of Space Tobio. I was wondering if you might be able to post a couple other screen shots of Space Tobio (straight on and full-length would be great)? Got my fingers crossed!!

Tomorrow, if I get around to it.

Tomorrow, if I get around to it.

Thanks Santa-bert!!
