Description Set in the 21st-century future, "Astro Boy" is a science fiction hero manga about a 100,000 horsepower robot boy named Atom. On April 7, 2003, the Minister of Science, Dr. Tenma, created a robot that looked exactly like his only son, Tobio, who had died in a traffic accident, by harnessing the full power of the Ministry of Science. Dr. Tenma loved the robot like his own son, but eventually, he became angry that the robot could not grow and sold it to a robot circus. At the circus, the robot, named Astro Boy, was forced to work. However, thanks to the efforts of the new Minister of Science, Dr. Ochanomizu, robot rights were recognized, and Astro Boy was finally freed. Astro Boy began living with the robot parents created by Dr. Ochanomizu in a suburban house and started attending Ochanomizu Elementary School. However, whenever an incident occurred, Astro Boy would bravely confront evil with his 100,000 horsepower power. 手塚治虫 Osamu Tezuka (1928-1989) was a Japanese manga artist, animator, and physician.
