Let's go Astro As far as your jet rockets will take you

He has 100,000 horsepower! Astro Boy!

Listen carefully Watch out

That's right Astro Don't lower your guard

He Is righteous A boy made from science

You have seven super powers Astro Boy!

Dr. Ochanomizu, recently appointed Minister of Science,

returned from the United States today.

The new Minister will meet the press.

Hey, get out of the way! Your head is shiny and blinding!

How dare you say, "Hey!"

First off, the Robot Rights Declaration has been invoked in Japan, too.

Dr. Ochanomizu, in a nut shell, what is the Robot Rights Declaration?

Fools!

You guys don't even know that?!

Listen, robots have personalities, too!

Which means that robots and humans have equal rights.

You're terrible!

Right, Dr. Ochanomizu?

That's about right.

Told you so.

You sure have a way with words, no wonder you're a teacher.

Sorry | talked out of turn.

| haven't introduced you two, Astro.

This is my old friend, Daddy Mustache.

Daddy Mustache?

That's a funny name.

| do have a fine name: Shunsaku Ban.

Right now I'm a teacher at primary school, but sometimes,

a private eye!

Or at times, a judo expert!

And other times, a flower arranger!

But my real identity is...

...Daddy Mustache, or Shunsaku Ban.

Exactly!

| rushed over today for a very specific reason.

It's about Astro's schooling, isn't it?

You sure are quick.

The Robot Declaration states robots are entitled to the same education as humans.

I've seen a primary school before somewhere.

Many children study there...

Yes, they play sports and have fun, but most importantly,

you make friends through these activities.

Friends!

Save The Classmate!

I've got four, including me.

I've got three for sure.

- How about you, Osamu? - Five.

Including me, that's 15.

13.

| guess I| have to use the secret weapon.

Secret weapon?

Just wait till you hear my speech.

Here comes the teacher!

I'm going to introduce a new friend.

This is Astro. He's going to join this class.

Hello.

He's a robot!

- What the heck? - What's going on?

That's right. Astro is a robot.

You know that robots can go to school now.

Sir, | don't want to study with a robot!

- Me neither! - No way!

Why not?

Why? Because, well... Robots are...

You have no reason. Astro, that's your seat over there.

Yes, sir.

Hi!

As | said the other day,

your class president has transferred away and we have to elect a new class president.

What's a class president?

That's the class boss... Rather, the class leader.

You kids take care of it.

- Who are you voting for? - This is going to be exciting!

Quiet! Let's start the class president election.

Our candidates, Kenichi and Shibugaki, will make speeches.

First, I'd like you to know that if | am elected class president,

| promise to get rid of all the violence at school.

Just when are you saying | was violent to you?

I'm not talking about you.

Why you!

Second, I'd establish a baseball club and soccer team

and try to get everyone to become good friends.

- Hear, hear! - Yeah!

Yo, President!

Now, now. If | get elected, I'll make the lunch hour start at 9:00!

Way to go!

That would never be allowed.

So instead, if | get elected, you'll all be invited to

the best amusement park in the East, which my Dad is building,

free of charge!

- Hooray! - Cool!

Now for the election.

Those in favor of Kenichi, press the green button.

Those in favor of Shibugaki, press the red.

- That's the way to go! - Go, go, go!

- Come on, Kenichi! - Way to go!

Come on! | need a few more!

Damn, a tie! We're in a run-off.

That's strange. It's 15 to 15. There are 31 of us.

There's someone who hasn't voted yet.

It's you, Astro. Vote now. You can vote, too.

Yeah.

Thus Kenichi is our new class president.

- Wow! - Congratulations!

How dare you vote for Kenichi?!

Why? Is it wrong that | voted for Kenichi?

Of course it is wrong!

Because of you, | couldn't become class president.

By only one vote!

| wanted to be president. | wanted them to call me Mister President.

Your speech was funny, but | liked Kenichi's speech better.

Why you...!

Stop it.

Just because he voted for you, you're sticking up for a robot!

It's wrong for a robot to come to school like humans do.

Get out of here!

- Go away! - Go away!

Remember what the teacher said.

We've all got to be friends.

You take the side of the robots! I'll teach you—

The teacher's coming!

- Oops! - Run for it!

- Where's teacher? - A little white lie, of course!

This is the biological specimen room.

This is a wolf, a canine species that died out about 100 years ago.

Press that switch.

- Amazing! - It's a 3D holograph.

Like real, huh?

Where are the robot bones?

There's no such thing.

When you're finished, you flush it like this.

What do you mean, when you're finished?

This is so fun, Midori. Come over.

But that's the boys room.

Here you go, Astro!

There!

Here.

No, no, you can't use your hands.

All right, then.

Look what you've done.

If we lose the school ball, the teacher is going to be mad.

I'll go get it.

There!

Here!

| didn't use my hands.

Amazing!

It's still under construction, so you guys better not get caught.

- Wanna take a ride? - Of course!

Then vote for me tomorrow.

- Another vote? - A run-off?

We'll vote again without the robot.

Mom's seeing to it right now.

| have come to advise you, Mr. Principal.

Advise?

You'd better cancel the robot's admission to the school

and hold a re-election right away.

| have done what | believe is right. | adamantly refuse!

Mr. Principal, who donated the gym to this school?

Who built the schoolhouse?

I know. Mr. Ban, please understand...

| adamantly refuse to understand such arguments!

Well!

Here you go.

Vote for me tomorrow.

This is electrifying!

Robots are human creations!

Therefore they are inferior to humans.

What's inferior is dirty!

Go away, robot!

What a thing to say, you hysterical raccoon!

Raccoon?!

| won't have you hurting an innocent child!

You dare call me a raccoon?

You're a dumpy mustache daddy.

- Please leave us, Astro. - Okay.

So then... How dare you prattle on as you please?!

If ignorants like you have any idea how Astro feels

I'll be like peeing on the sand and | won't take it!

Go away, robot!

It's wrong for a robot to come to school like humans do.

Get out of here!

- Get out of here! - Get out of here!

That's the Rocket Coaster. The best ride here.

- Does it do somersaults? - Of course. Look over there.

Wow, no rails!

- He's right! - We can't ride that!

Don't worry. A magnetic field works as the rail over there.

Everybody, get on.

Come on, get in. Fasten your seatbelts.

Let's go.

How do you like it, guys?

- Awesome! - Yeah!

Cold!

So awesome! | can't take it!

- We made it! - Thrilling!

Coming up, a double loop!

Wow... wow!

Cool! | thought we'd fly away.

Now a triple loop.

I'm so busy. There are only words in these books.

Welcome home, Astro.

How was the first day at school? Did you have a good time?

Anything you didn't like?

Mothers... are they supposed to be scary?

Well, not all of them are.

But there are exceptions.

What's going on?!

Help!

What-?!

How dare a baldy like you act so arrogant!

How dare you call me bald, you old monster.

I'll get you fired!

You don't have the authority!

Hello... What? Shibugaki and his friends were in an accident?

Momnyy...

What to do... What to do...

Help!

My boy!

You must be his father. What's going on?

The transformer is malfunctioning and feeding tremendous power all at once!

Unfortunately, the magnetic field is growing stronger by the minute.

Then what's going to happen?

The energy will be condensed inside the magnetic field in 19 minutes...

An explosion will rip through the field.

An explosion?

Listen, Astro. Moms, rather, mothers give birth to children and raise them.

They are wonderful.

Sometimes they get angry, only because they love their children.

It doesn't mean...

Oh, Daddy Mustache.

Thank you for taking care of Astro today.

What? | got it.

I'll send the Robot Rescue Squad right away.

Damn!

Oh! Dr. Ochanomizu!

We've been waiting for you!

They're flying into the magnetic field!

Three minutes left.

Do we have any other options?

Maybe Astro can do it.

Huh?

Astro, you're the only one who can save those kids.

| believe you can do it.

Doctor...!

No way! Even the Rescue Squad failed!

What can you expect this robot child to do?

Look, Astro, if you follow the course you can get inside the magnetic field.

Once inside, fly in the same direction as the coaster,

slow it down, and jump on the other course.

Remember what you practiced at the circus.

Just like that, and you'll do fine.

Astro, save them please.

Please save our friends.

Friends.

Here I come!

One more minute left.

Now!

30 seconds!

Huh!

Listen carefully Watch out
