Set in a futuristic world, Astro Boy’s adventures explore themes of morality, technology, and coexistence. Recognizable by his spiky hair and red boots, Astro Boy has become an enduring symbol of Japanese pop culture. His legacy spans comics, TV series, films, and merchandise, captivating audiences worldwide for decades.
