Premiering in 2019, Go Astro Boy Go! introduces Astro Boy to a new wave of young viewers, reimagining Osamu Tezuka’s legendary robot hero with a bright, preschool-friendly tone. Produced by Tezuka Productions and Planet Nemo Animation, the show focuses on Astro’s mission to help humanity through kindness, cooperation, and problem-solving rather than combat.
In this version, Astro works alongside his friends — including the inventive Slime and the curious Uran — to solve everyday challenges in Metro City. Whether it’s rescuing stranded animals, calming malfunctioning machines, or helping someone understand their feelings, Astro leads with empathy first and superpowers second.
The animation is colorful and gentle, filled with rounded shapes and warm energy that make the world inviting for younger audiences. While this series shifts away from the original’s heavier themes, it keeps the core heart of Astro Boy alive: the belief that being truly human means caring for others.
Go Astro Boy Go! stands as a loving introduction to one of animation’s most important heroes — just in a softer, kinder package.
