STARRING "ASTRO GIRL"!

[ASTROBUDDY]

hi- did you say URAN WAS MISTAKEN FOR A PRINCE? GIGGLES NO WAY- ? SHE IS ALL CUTE ROBOT FEMALE to the max- hugs sweetly- ASTROBOY maybe but URAN a prince?- princess yes- giggles and love all of you very much- pray you all the very best possible future

Yes when Uran dresses as a jungle boy for a movie, the jungle queen confuses her for her long lost prince. If you're interested, you can see for yourself in a thread I started awhile back titled, "Jungle Kingdom", the lost manga episode found..."

Now can someone tell me who Professor Fate is?

Fate is a character in the film, THE GREAT RACE, which has as a subplot, a parody of TPoZenda. Fate is a dirty cheater, who, for the same reasons as Ronald Colman, ends up in a plot to overthrown a tipsy prince. He vainly tries to escape to win the race, but has need of help. It is a fairly amusing film.

Thank you, Jeffbert! I have seen the movie, but only once all the way through and so long ago I don't remember much about it. BTW, unfortunately for me the only version of TPoZ I have seen is the one starring Stewart Granger.

Convenient obliviousness.

I wondered about Astro's appearance at the end. But the text is too small for me to read on these scans.

I quickly searched for the book online, and somehow found images of covers from the whole set, there seems to be about 20. Darn it, now I want them all.

Just one question, where did you find the images of the covers online? I have been trying but have been unable to find those covers.

When I searched in Japanese, Mozu Books came up. They had all the covers as thumbnails.

Now that you mention it, I am sure I saw that one also. I believe the TCM guy stated that the later-made of the two, essentially reused the earlier one's script.

I was just looking at this scene again and it may not be as weird as we think. Brothers and sisters can rule the same kingdom without going the Hawaiian way. So Astro Girl's aversion to seeing her brother could just be about her quarrels with him and nothing more. Any way, just a thought!

Amazing! I had no idea this book even existed until now.
