The faggots who make mecha content need to stop treating Tetsujin 28 like it’s just a footnote along with his other manga like Mars, Babel II and Giant Robo. This guy invented mecha and you scum glaze Nagai and Tomino for the thousandth time?

Yeah yeah we get it, you want to be a hipster in an already niche genre.

Blaming the intangible because you are stupid only makes you more stupid.

Only up to Black Ox’s appearance iirc. High quality scans of the manga certainly exist due to it being reprinted every year in color no less but no scanlation group or manga publisher has bothered to pick it up. Meanwhile Astro Boy gets omnibus reprints out the wazoo

It doesn't what they are called. The concept of a super advanced moving machine has been around since the early years of Greek civilization. Hephaetos created his own mecha wheelchair and an army of automatons.

You don't need to put down Tomino, especially since his partner in crime Yasuhiko was very much inspired by Yokoyama. Particularly his 70s manga.
>>23842629
It's been pretty much left behind for about a year still at the first arc. Somebody commissioned a translation of the later portion of the Vogler arc and the Superhuman Kelly arc. Problem is, those translations are based off the Kappa reprints, which censored and abridged a lot of the stories.
>>
Yokoyama historical manga > his mecha shit

>>23843271
Isn't this the consensus opinion within Japan?
>>23842781
The 2004 anime is good, but it is not at all a faithful adaptation despite what this board continually insists.

Most of us grew up on Gigantor. Cut us at least a little slack. They renamed Kenji DICK STRONG.

Tell GhostQ79 to release the translations she's hoarded along with Big X and maybe someone will.

Literally all of Jap authors used the forefathers of the genre to create their own mecha

Joy. Haven’t seen one in ages.
>>23842600
Some of the early chapters have been but not fully. Somewhat surprising that between him Ishinomori, Kuwata, and Tezuka that Yokoyama would have and Tetsujin-28 exported in some official capacity outside of “Gigantor”.
>>
>>23843557
Sounds like there's a story to be told?
Speaking of, whatever happened to Sono Na Wa 101? That's been halted for like what, 2 years, now? I remember Suikoden was completed in a steady pace.

The same guy who did those volumes of the Kappa Comics version of Tetsujin also subbed the first 26 episodes of the original anime, which adapt the manga up to partway through the Robby arc, give or take some skimming at the beginning, before the anime pivoted exclusively to original stories.

Do GR and Tetsujin ever cross over?

>>23844403
In the second Ginrei OVA. Shotaro and Daisaku were going to cross paths at least once in one of the unmade GR chapters.

I think they compromised by giving Daisaku a Kobayashified Tetsujin 28 lol

>>23844450
Ken Ishikawa of Getter Robo fame did the design for that one lol. Daisaku even wears Shotaro's plaid blazer.

>Ken Ishikawa of Getter Robo fame did the design for that one
you could really tell from the shin getter-esque torso design
also from the one close-up where it has ishikawa eyes but there's no good quality versions of the ginrei OVAs that show it off enough sadly
