Even with a few holes in the story line, it's still the most epic episode of a kids' cartoon ever made. I wish all cartoons put this much heart into their stories, there'd actually be a reason to watch them.

Oh its worse then that, to teach a "life lesson" to some nobody Sultan, a simple Robot built Another Robot who then KILLED the greatest most beloved robots in the world, before building an even mORE massive robot to kill the pervious one.

So to teach one little rich shmuck a lesson, the best robots in the world were all killed.

Astro Boy and Jet Marte are brothers, but Marte is older than Astro Boy!

[duellermd2]

Second best astroboy series ever

[diddymuck]

the b/w series featured the horned bot as Big Titan; the plot of this ep was the basis of Dunderbird ep.

@Sweetmervs I totally agree in fact I think it's the best episode of the whole serie right before the greatest robot of the world

[Sweetmervs]

@pateastwood I love that Episode "Atlas Forever",wherein Atlas dies for his brother Astro. One of the memorable episodes from Astroboy. :-(

@Crossroadsinc Unfortunately, I think it may be in his programming, at least partially. He was a servant, so it might be in his programming to do what the Sultan wants (make fighting robots), even if it's against his "morals."

[pinokosthewife]

@kevnar Agreed.

[OperationAnime262]

No matter how powerful someone becomes, someone will always be stronger.

All the good guys die for one man's evil ambition.
