The character of Dr Tenma from Pluto holds similarities in appearance and personality with the character of Gendo Ikari in Neon Genesis Evangelion. The relationship between Dr Tenma and Atom is also similar to the relationship between Gendo and Rei Ayanami however Dr Tenma and Atom share a more healthy and positive relationship. You could possibly argue that Gendo took elements from Dr Tenma from Astro Boy, however the Dr Tenma from Pluto resembles Gendo much more.
