Astroboy on TV Tome

[jeffbert]

check here.

You have the correct title. Pook is the name given to the transformation robot in Japanese. Check the Tezuka site, if you are still in doubt.

Thanks!

Huh!!??
I thought "Pook in Cruciform Island" was the episode "The Baby Elephant Pook"...! So I was searching for the name of the episode "The transformation robot" in the japanese list but I couldn't find it...

Why did they change the names like that? Just to confuse us?! It worked for me <_<

Sorry DrFrag, there's no mistake...

I believe the Japanese name for the elephant is Pula. Anyway, if you like the 80s series, you will love manga #23. It is filled with short stories, several of which were used in the 80s series. It is very cute!

Where do you find manga of Astro?! It should be hard to find. I know a store but they only have the newest stuff like manga of Yu-gi-oh (<_< beurk...)

I must make sure that I can find this thread easily!

TV Tome has become TV.COM. Moreover, the coverage of Astroboy has been expanded. It now include episodes lists for the 1963. "Astro Boy" results in only the 2003. I have not found the 1980s on the site, though.

Ugh ... what a horrible new layout. Display errors everywhere (missing pictures, white-on-white text, etc).

There are still heaps of mistakes in the Astroboy episode lists. They've stuck the 80s series on as "season 2" of the 60s series (episodes 192 to 243?! yet have a separate list for the 2003 series.
The episode names for the 80s series use the wrong translation.
The 60s series list is missing two episodes (The Blue Knight parts 1+2 I think).
The air dates for the 60s and 80s series are for the Japanese screenings, but the 2003 series uses the US air dates.

Hey Jeffbert, what say we get our own episode lists online?

Got it done, uploaded it, then discovered my hosting doesn't support PHP.

Why do you need PHP? Sorry, I'm lost and I don't really know what you are doing. My hosting supports PHP, so if I can help, tell me.
