and I kinda enjoyed it, in a way. What I mean by that is, I couldn't really understand the Japanese, for there were no subtitles and I only know a few words/sentences of the language. One thing that I found rather odd was the animation; it had great style, just like the 2003 Astro Boy anime did, but in almost every scene, it was very "wobbly", for the frame would suddenly jolt and once a character moved, it almost had the effect of small paper-stick-puppets being moved across a painted screen.
I did love some of the music though, and the full versions of those have also been uploaded, so I listen to those occasionally...
On another final note, I get what you mean about Tezuka's characters, how most of them hardly even spoke! That includes Astro, who, despite being one of the "main" characters in this animation, seemed to speak less too! So that was awkward...
.......Ratom did have some pretty incredible fight scenes though, even if there were only for a few seconds!
