And then Dr. Wily looks over like : "Light, even I'm not like that. Even after all the stuff I did, there were bots I helped, that you abandoned to the junk heap. You declared them failures and others at the end of their useful function. I gave them purpose and freedom. Choice. Hope. Not all of them were controlled by me. Some of them wanted more to their lives." Of course he's saying that from a prison cell... but we all know he's got robot allies working to get him out.
@@hnfiiinc5993mmmm first time I see Proto/Blues referred to as Breakman. Is that his "fighting robot" name, as Rock/Rockman? Also for a second thought you mentioned Bass so I got a flashback of that arcade game where his ending we get a sneak peek of Wily building Zero.
@@Mordecrox He went by that moniker in Mega Man 3, when he still concealed his face. It's never really specified why. I guess since he was testing Rock in that game he didn't want him to hold back. I don't know if Mega Man would go all out against him he if knew who he was.
Probably the big reason why I prefer 2003 compared to nearly every other version of Astroboy (besides this being the one I grew up with) is because Dr. Tenma remains relevant throughout the whole story. All that insane talk of Tenma wanting to make Atom the “King Of Robots” was just him desperately trying to prove that he loved his son and wanted the absolute best for him, albeit in a very twisted way. Because Tenma can’t accept the fact his neglect, selfishness, and lack of understanding is what got Tobio killed in the first place, and upon seeing what Atom was capable of, he became a lunatic. Tenma only really started to care when it was far too late. Tobio was already long gone. And as Atom says, Tenma still didn’t really understand what he was doing wrong until he got rejected a third time.
And what we see is how Astro/Atom calling out Dr. Tenma, still shows the kind hearted robot boy he's become from his time doing what he does, and how he managed to help Dr. Tenma heal, even if Dr. Tenma was pretty far gone due to how he was in pain over losing Tobio... and yet also not seeing his inaction is the reason why Tobio had died.
How the ring broke apart at the end is symbolic of Tenma finally letting go of his ambitions and allowing Astro to move on with Ochanomizu to live happily with him. Because after this whole clip, Dr. Tenma says “He’s a good father, I’m not.” Indicating that it’s time for both he and Astro to finally let go of each other and making peace.
ASTRO BOY after so many years..... *this scene is like he flew to my home and with his go lucky smile pull my heart from my chest and flies off* .... *sobs*
When Tobio hugged Tenma, the mad scientist completely mellowed out. Letting go of the ring, Tenma lets out tears of pain and cries. Accepting the hug, Tenma kneels and hugs his son, redeeming himself once and for all. His ring then fell to the ground and cracked, destroyed.
@@funnyvalentine1038Not always. There are rare cases of the dub being better, like Hellsing Ultimate and Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood But early 2000's dubs tended to be pretty bad
I think it depends on the exact series. Some 90s anime is better dubbed than some modern ones. I think old dubs can be awkward, mistranslated, or just poorly executed by inexperienced VAs. But modern anime is at times plagued by over-acting, cringe line reads, translations that are TOO faithful and just sound awkward in English, etc. This specific anime had a lot of heart and the Japanese sub is infinitely better even for an English speaker.
@@Annie-rw2ec Dr. Tenma In the 1980 Series. After Episode 2 Tenma is last seen searching for Tobio. He never shows up again in the series, what do you think happened to him? Why did he never show up again?
It was essentially made to honor his canon in universe birthday and the anniversary of the OG Astro Boy anime. With that in mind, you can tell they poured a ton of love and care into its production for it to still stand up 20 years after its release
@@Astroniko003Ah so it’s like a 40th anniversary thing… This show either needs a redub or a box set of the Japanese version for North America and Europe. I would LOVE to see a full redub of this
@@michaelbullen3104 Oh absolutely. And given how important Astro Boy as a franchise is, I'm really surprised they haven't done one yet. Especially how 2003 is easily one of the more known versions in America---even if the dub is pretty bad. And like you said, they should at the very least make the Japanese more accessible
@@Astroniko003So I have heard through some commenters that there was a slightly more uncut version of the English dub done in Australia? But most of its contents have been copyright striked and lost to the sands of time, and even was apparently broadcast in 16:9? Maybe I’m just tripping here or something but I wonder if this is a piece of lost media worth looking into or documenting
@@michaelbullen3104 Woah, really? I actually haven't heard about that, although it sounds like it would be _really_ interesting to dig into. Australian Astro Boy media like the 80's dub has always piqued my curiosity. Not really directly related, but I wonder if there were plans to go in a different direction with the 03 dub? Because I found what I'm assuming was test reel of Candi Milo's role as Astro and, while the voice direction was mostly the same, there was a line with Astro mention O'Shay being his father. Which is SUPER interesting to me since the final version avoided a lot of direct mentions of father/son relation ships Astro had. It could mean absolutely nothing but your comment happened to remind me of that.
Pretty sure that this is ripped from the Japanese DVDs if I remember right. Although a while back someone found a native release on a JP streaming site and ripped an HD release from there
@@Astroniko003 I’ve been looking for the two Astro boy 2004-2005 movies do u know where they are possibly? I found a link to Chinese TH-cam but I’m not sure if that’s it yet 😭
It was in the dub, it just had a lot of changes in it. Some of the big ones are dialogue and music changes, which is probably why this felt different. Unless you just didn't make it to this episode? It was the finale.
bad ending. it isn't on you to fix the mistakes your father did and the "trials" they put you through to accomplish their own goals through you you have your own life.
Dr.Light: And here we see a case study of how not to act with our robot children.

Umataro Tenma is actually a complete neutral in most of Astro Boy Series. Neither hero nor villain.
Agree. And one of the best anime/manga characters ever. I love this adaptation but Tenma is basically a villain here, I prefer the 1980 version

I like him more as a villain because I feel the villain needs to be have a emotional connection with the protagonist in some way.

It's like the end of the Phantom of the Opera musical but with platonic love
As a kid, i coukd never remember Dr. Tenma's name so i always called him "Evil rooster guy".
For me : Tenma or Tobio's dad
This is my favorite part of the series! ❤ Thank you for uploading this video!
..Love he so much! I hate his father so much. It will remain the most beautiful series I have ever seen in my life and the best anime . 💙✨😔
Knowing that Ishinomori was Tezuka's student, I can't help but feel Kikaider vibes in this scene!
final boss daddy with serious mental issues 🤣🤣🤣

Stfu. It was beautiful, and We talk about a robot, not a real child
??? I don't think that was the point of this scene. If anything Tenma realizes what he did was messed up. He goes to jail afterwards.
