| After binge reading Pluto, happened to stumble upon this upcoming prequel adaptation. Looking forward to it!! |
| After The Rain (aka Mafumafu and Soraru) will be doing the opening theme song. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-01-05/after-the-rain-performs-atom-the-beginning-anime-opening-theme/.110657 |
|
| Why is there 3 different studios working on it? |
| Sup... |
NiJas said: havent read the manga or anything but its a prequel, i think its ok since it happens before the birth of astro boy. might have some easter eggs or shootout from astro boy that might fly over our head but i think thats pretty much it.So can i watch this if i havent watched any astro boy and if i dont plan to? is it worth watching? Will i understand anything or should i watch the others first. |
|
| Wow, I didn't even know they were making a new Astro Boy series. |
 |
New key visual  Also the premiere will be April 15 on NHK and then will be streamed April 16 on Amazon Prime in Japan ... so i think it might be going to be a Amazon exclusive with Saekano (because noitaminA) like Onihei with Kuzu no Honkai this season. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/daily-briefs/2017-03-07/atom-the-beginning-anime-reveals-premiere-date-new-key-visual/.113114 |

| A prequel to... Astro Boy? o.O Wow, that's some big shoes this new anime tries to fill. I'm excited to see where this is going, the PV looks promising. |
| Confirmed for 12 episodes. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/daily-briefs/2017-03-23/atom-the-beginning-anime-gets-12-episodes/.113796 |

| I came back with my old account and watched the PV too and wow that looks interesting,, gotta wait for april brb And damn After the Rain's song as expected from Soramafu aaaah I don't regret now buying a limited edition DVD then |

| To the ones thinking it is risky to try to come after Tezuka's manga/animation (and its later re-adaptations), they aren't really bold since they make it based on a pre-existing manga (drawn by the creator of Patlabor's concept). Some words from the director and the staff: http://www.anime-now.com/entry/2017/03/28/230005 It almost sounds like they won't go with the manga. |
| Sentai Filmworks picked up Atom: The Beginning. Also, double confirm that this one also stream to the Amazon's Anime Strike with Danmachi, Re:Creators and Saekano. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2017-03-30/sentai-filmworks-licenses-frame-arms-girl-atom-the-beginning-anime/.114146 |

Love SoraMafu! I'll try out this anime. I watched the atom boy movie. Is the prequel really different from the original show? |
