ASTRO BOY

ASTRO

Far beyond the sky Far into the stars

ASTRO

Far beyond the sky Far into the stars

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

He is kind A boy made from science

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!

So we just need to destroy this race car, the White Planet.

Right, Keele, we must prevent his sixth consecutive win.

This is the year we'll have the Black Devil win the Equator Race.

Gotcha, Boss. We'll take care of it tonight.

The White Planet

Koichi, pull the lever a bit.

Okay.

- Push it all the way to full throttle. - Okay.

Is the power plant rotation satisfactory?

Let me hear.

All normal.

Fine. What a wonderful racing machine.

You'll do it again this year.

Thank you, Doctor. The White Planet is like my brother.

| love to hear it praised.

Your late father, my old friend, created this car.

So in a way, it really is your brother.

Koichi, dinner is ready for you.

Mitsuko, the White Planet is sure to win again this year.

Dr. Ochanomizu guarantees it.

If it doesn't win, then they have to blame my brother.

Smarty.

You can't get away with it, Mitsuko.

Doctor, would you stay for dinner tonight?

Please?

Yes, please. It'd be like having a dad and a little brother.

Tell us more about our father.

Well your father was an excellent engineer—

The White Planet!

Watch out. Duck!

Don't, it's too dangerous!

Let me go! The White Planet...

I'll get the White Planet.

The White Planet is dead!

Who did this to the White Planet? Give it back to me!

Give me back my White Planet. | can't be in the race.

Without the White Planet, I'd rather die.

Don't be so sad.

I'm more worried about you than the White Planet.

Idiot!

Stupid Mitsuko!

Don't you know how much | love the White Planet?

Can't we repair the White Planet?

That'd be difficult.

The White Planet's electronic brain would be a problem.

It's as sophisticated as a human brain.

Not even the Ministry of Science has a backup.

| see.

Oh! There is one way.

Can | borrow your electronic brain for the Equator Race?

So I'm going to be a robot car!

The White Planet is almost complete.

We just have to transfer your electronic brain.

Ready, Astro?

Yes, I'll do my best.

Doctor, | have to talk to you.

We're in Polynesia, the starting point for the Equator Race.

In this race, the drivers go over the seas and the mountains,

drive in a straight line, and race around the Earth!

If a driver strays more than a mile from the Equator,

or goes higher than 17 feet above the ground,

the driver will be disqualified.

Here comes The Robots, the rock band.

When they finish this number, the race will begin.

This race is monitored by Satellite 194 and broadcast throughout the world.

Ten minutes to start.

Vigorous qualifying races have left the best warriors from around the world.

This is strange.

The five-time champion, the White Planet is not here.

Keele, Keele, Keele!

Too bad for the White Planet.

The Black Devil is sure to win this year.

Yeah...

Huh?

No way!

There it is, the White Planet.

Trying for its sixth consecutive victory, the most powerful machine is here.

Keele, Keele.

Yes, Boss.

You know where the White Planet is now.

Boss... | just don't get it.

I'm sure we destroyed it.

Change of plans. Listen, keep track of the White Planet.

Y-Yes, sir.

Dr. Ochanomizu, thanks to you, I've been able to enter the race.

Let's do our best, Astro.

Strange, Mitsuko is not there to support me.

Maybe she's still angry.

Finally, the countdown.

Ten, nine, eight,

seven, six, five, four,

three,

two,

one,

zero!

They are off!

Oh no! Contact!

Already an accident.

Other cars smash. They are in flames.

The track is complete chaos.

It's the Black Devil in the lead,

followed by the King Cobra, the Magic Bus...

and the High Spider, forming the lead group.

The White Planet seems to be lost in the panic.

There's the White Planet, breaking through.

Way to go, Astro. What a response.

Melanesia

Melanesia

The front runners are now above the Melanesian Seas.

Melanesia

The Black Devil, which was second last year,

leads the group. It's a hovercraft.

Then the King Cobra, known for its tenacity.

Then the Magic Bus, and the High Spider.

The White Planet is trailing way behind.

It had an unfortunate start, lost in the accident.

Sumatra

Oh no, we lost visual from Satellite 194.

- What the heck? - Contact the Space Agency.

We can't have them broadcast what we're about to do.

Good thinking.

Let's move on to the next step.

Yes, sir.

We apologize for the interruption in the broadcast.

Satellite 194, used for tracking the race, has been destroyed by somebody.

What's going on? This is not good.

Indian Ocean

Somalia Coast

Lake Victoria

They should be here any second.

Here they come.

Very good, Black Devil, keep it up.

We'll destroy the White Planet for you.

There'll be trouble if they find us.

That's true. Let's go down.

Gotcha.

No way!

When the White Planet comes along, we'll surface and attack.

- Battle stations! - Gotcha!

Here it comes.

Ready to surface and destroy the White Planet.

Gotcha, Boss.

Fools, I said, "Ready to surface."

Who ordered you to go down? We're going up, not down.

We're not doing anything.

Something just went overhead.

| sure saw it...

- Hey, watch it! - You'll pay for this!

Darn, he is alive!

Take this!

This giant octopus is a robot.

There!

Take this!

| did it! Oops.

Okay!

Huh? The giant octopus is gone.

I'm alive! Got to hurry.

Oh my energy...

Huh? Astro stopped moving.

Oh no. An SOS from Astro!

We got trouble, boss.

Mechanical Octopus has been blown up.

| won't forgive them! Next plan, next plan.

Amazon River

Grudge!

Bottomless Swamp

Andes Mountains

He's catching up with me. Not bad.

How about this?

Insolence. Then how about this?

Have you given up?

What?

So close, yet...

| won't let you pass me So easily.

If that's the way you want it...

You'd better give up, kid.

Huh? He's gone?

He beat me!

Damn! I'll beat you at whatever cost.

Oh blast it.

I did it!

Ecuador Coast

Darn Keele, what a loser. Use you-know-what.

Galapagos Islands

Oh good. The White Planet is leading.

Huh? What are they?

Nuclear torpedoes!

Koichi, watch out!

Nuclear torpedoes are running parallel to you!

They will explode in three minutes, at Longitude 120, Race Point 3.

Change your course!

So, Astro, you've been causing us trouble.

If | slow down now, I'll lose.

| just need to pass Longitude 120, Race Point 3, within a minute.

Okay!

It's not happening.

You won't bother us again, Astro. Eat this!

Koichi-

Okay, come on!

You'll pay for this, Astro.

No. This is the limit.

Huh?

Huh? What?

It's going faster on its own. This machine...

It's running by itself. What's going on?

| gotta do something. | gotta...

Koichi! Koichi!

Come on, go! Just a little bit longer. Go!

Don't be so rough on her!

Huh? Astro, why are you there?

Why be so reckless? You want to destroy Mitsuko?

What?

When your father made the White Planet,

he also made an extra electronic brain which was stored inside a robot.

Y-You don't mean that robot is...

It was your sister Mitsuko.

Mitsuko confided in us and said she wanted to be the White Planet.

| see.

Mitsuko wanted to help me,

so she went faster than her speed limit.

Thank you, Mitsuko.

The country of Gravia just elected the world's first robot president.

Congratulations, President Rag!

But the robot-hating Dead Cross have a plot in the works! Look out!

Giant robots and assassins keep going after him!

Beat them back, President Rag!

Next time on Astro Boy: The Robot President!

See you then!

The Robot President Please look forward to it...

Next time on Astro Boy:

My arms and legs are jet boosters that let me fly

Astro Boy! Astro Boy! Mighty Atom!

A machine gun flares from my hips

Astro Boy! Astro Boy! Mighty Atom!

My eyes are searchlights and my hands fire lasers

| have seven super powers!

| fight in the name of peace!

Let's go on a journey together!
