There are no official stories explaining why Astro Boy would have a particular anything of any color, (not counting the story about Astro Boy's red boots. because that has to do with the boots themselves which happen to be red, signifying nothing, other than his red boots look cool); so any stories claiming otherwise are not official and should not be taken seriously. If you enjoy their whimsy that is another story!

In the manga cover pages Tezuka DID draw those boots red, the 'belt' green, and his eyes brown. IF the good doctor chose those colors SO BE IT!

I obviously wouldn't believe a story like this unless it came from an official source that I could see for myself.
I really just think his belt is there to be there...
:tezuka: *while drawing Astro* Nah solid black doesn't look good.
*draws belt*
:tezuka: Perfect.

Not really. I have it from a VERY reliable source that Astroboy's belt and underware are PAINTED on him.

I thought you just misunderstood the sentence. I don't actually think that's the reason.

You DO realize that the story I referenced was just one fan fiction writer's head canon. (Though it was a bit humorous.)

The idea is a bit... Silly...
I'm fine with both removable or painted on underwear. There are several instances where both occur, and consistency obviously wasn't one of Tezuka's main priorities.

Huh! I do not understand. I never said Tezuka did not choose those colors, merely that there is no story specifying why he chose those colors. Whether or not somewhere he explained why those are Astro Boy's colors, I am not aware. Any one who knows for sure please share!
