Dr Lolo is a trap, i think the message is quite clear now.

I believe that once in a while Umatarou’s wild guess turned out to be true. Now I want to witness the moment he finally figures out the identity of Dr Lolo img000009.png

NO!! TwT

Professor, please tell me sooner!

That cliffhanger hurt my soul.

Page 31: THERE IS ONLY ONE POSSIBLE EXPLANATION!!!

 

Page 32: ONLY ONE LEFT!!!

 

Page 33: I WILL TELL YOU!!!

 

Page 34: See you next chapter

 

FUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Troll with capital 'T'.

Oh my fucking god, that's one forced cliffhanger.

Page 32: ONLY ONE LEFT!!!

FUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cliffhanger...

 

That's like watching your fav tv show, and having the power go out seconds before the climactic scene.....

"I will tell you..! After this cliff hanger." Goddamn it. Wish this would move faster..

Not cool in leaving us on such an intriguing cliffhanger.  My guess is A106 has been accessing online databases and triggered a flag while looking into the government.  

Eh, it started out alright, quite interesting in fact, but after a few chapters I began to lose interest rapidly. This story revealed itself to be a boy's dream of robots, who wants to see "coolu fighting robots" while also having empty romantic conceptions about their feelings. This is the sort of story that will try to convey "the heart and soul of robots", while also have / want them smash each other as violently as possible "because it is cool", all the while characters shout out the names of their attacks.

This is yet another moment in which an incredibly shounen manga, is published in a Seinen magazine. This is practically One Piece, only with robots.
If anyone reading this sympathized with this rant, it's probably not your cup of tea. The seinen-tag is misleading.

Well, Pluto is pretty much the gold standard of Seinen Astro Boy. I do think we'll get into more mature situations down the road (for instance, Tobio's death and impact on Dr. Tenma).

Didn't expect to see UAZ 452, Soviet/Russian utility van(in production for more than fifty years now) in a robot manga.
Spoiler

I need more chapters of this, is this really only 10 chapters on Japan or are the scanners translating the manga on their own pace?

I'm the TL. This is translated from the French release, of which there are currently 15 chapters (3 vol.) out.  The next volume is coming out in November. I've been too busy lately but I will be back to a more regular schedule now.

Uh, how did that memory appeared when it supposed to happen later on in the future with Tenma...?

Unexpected time travel!!!

I'm afraid to what will happen to A106 in the future, since they never ever mentioned him at all in Atom.

Well this is when they were college students and in Atom they are all old men so either A106 was retired or was destroyed and became an inspiration to keep improving as they are definitely on the right track.

a prequel from the god of manga, whose last words are "let me work" as the nurse takes his drawing equipment, made by his son and the guy who made tetsuwan birdy.

(yes that long intro is needed and worth it, Its the godfather of manga)

 

Yes I will follow this. :)

WH<HAHHAHrhhrHRHHRHHAHAH!!

 

xD

Link to the series, or are you talking about original Astro Boy?

Yeah, I was talking of Astro Boy, although even though I watched the 1980 series as a kid, I'm more knowledgeable on the 2003 version of the anime.

Pluto >>>>>> this.....

There's 5 volumes out ... but it seems the translators don't like it that much?

Too much heavy dialouge?

Actually, our translator is a French translator, so as you can imagine, there's quite a bit of QCing. Plus, the French editions are only up to volume 3. My group and Golden Roze scans can always use more help with this series.
