Pluto 0: The Greatest Robot on Earth

  • Summary

  • And we're back! 2024 is off to a rip-roaring start with the first episode of Season Two of URASAWA BOYS! This time, we're covering Pluto, but before we dig into the main attraction, we take a look back at the original arc of Astro Boy that inspired Urasawa's one of a kind cyberpunk murder mystery manga. Join Matt and Quinn as they dig into "The Greatest Robot on Earth" and go long on this influential chunk of a classic manga, ponder on how best to make adaptive moves, talk about Dragon Ball, and generally just have an absolutely great time doing the dang thing. Folks - it's a good one!
