| You don't have to have watched Astro Boy to enjoy Pluto. It's basically a darker retelling of one of the arcs from Astro Boy, but with the focus now put on the other characters, and Astro not playing as big of a part at all. As long as you understand that it's related in some way then you can enjoy this fine, I think, though it's better imo if you know a bit about the original too. This was one of the big arcs for the original Astro Boy manga, so it's a memorable part of the series. |

Sand_bag said: No Astro Boy is for kids and it's also really old most people that have read this have never watched Astro Boy it's completely fine to go in blind. Not saying Astro Boy isn't worth watching/reading but it's six decades old at this point depends on your taste.Ebobebo said: You don't have to have watched Astro Boy to enjoy Pluto.

| If anything is probably better if you didnt read astro boy before this, its a loving homage but its extending a far shorter story arc and developing characters that only appear for a few panels into absurdly fleshed out characters and by extension its alot more suspenseful if you don't know the basic plot outline. Just knowing what astro boy is will more than suffice as the story does such an excellent job building up the world from merely the first chapter. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
