Astro Boy (Mighty Atom in JP) is a character from the anime/manga of the same name and the film of the same name.
Background[]
In the alternate futuristic year of 2003, tensions were escalating mankind and the robots they built to serve under them. But one brilliant robotics engineer known as Doctor Tenma paid more attention to his wok than his family including his 13 year-old son Tobio. This continued until Tobio took his future car for a ride and got himself killed. Filled with grief and regret, Tenma became desperate for a second chance at being a father. He called up all his engineering allies to build him a new son, called The Mighty Atom, also known as Astro Boy. Astro Boy assumed the role of Tenma's late son; even attending school and doing chores. Things were going well... until Tenma came to the realization that Astro would never truly replace Tobio. His resentment only grew every time he looked at the young robot's un-aging face. Tenma proceeded to come up with a brilliant plan: He sold Astro to the circus
Astro spent his time performing until he was found and adopted by Doctor Ochanomizu, whose kindness inspired Astro to stand up for what's right and defend the world.
