Thank you, Elefun!

I'm gonna take it...

...him, home now.

Quality time! Bonding!

All the good things!

Bye, Dr. Elefun.

Bye, Toby!

Incredible!

Dad?

Good morning, son.

How do you feel?

Kinda weird.

Have I been sick or something?

No, you're fine, Toby.

You're perfect.

You are wonderful.

Oh, that's great,

because...

Are you okay?

No!

Uh, I must be malfunctioning!

Wires crossing, huh?

It can't be you!

You are...

Oh, my gosh!

You are...

You are...

- Hey, Orrin, you okay?

You're... gonna be

late for school.

Well, I... I must say it...

...it's very nice to

see you again.

Sit down, Toby.

I want to talk to you.

- Sure, Dad.

It's about school.

I have decided

you shouldn't go anymore, son.

I'm gonna teach you at home.

Myself!

- Sounds good to me.

Hey, Orrin, looks like

we're gonna be hanging out together.

Together? Oh!

Wow, that would be very nice,

Master Toby!

Oh, dear!

Please, Toby,

just let the robot do it's things.

Sorry.

Hey, if you're gonna be home

as well as me.

What about the ministry,

your job?

My job now...

...is to be your father.

I'm so freaked!

Let's start

with something familiar.

Four natural calculus.

It's your favorite.

I guess it is.

If, sir wishes perhaps

I could help Master Toby with...

Oh, bad idea.

Bad idea.

I'm a robot.

What am I thinking?

Wrong way!

Okay...

Here.

Excellent.

Yeah!

Interesting solution.

Good! Good!

Bravo, wonderful, excellent... Toby!

First grades on first day!

You ain't seen nothing yet.

Howdy?

Let's get back to basics.

Remember this one?

Kant's "Critique of pure reason".

I used to read to you in bed

when you were little.

To put me to sleep?

- Yes!

You asked for it every night!

That's not quite what I...

- Just try rereading these.

To get the old brain humming again.

More!

Next!

Beautiful!

I got it! I got it!

Sweet, Orrin!

You're the man!

Yes! You know,

I haven't had this much fun since...

Well, ever!

Check this out!

I'm impressed!

Not knocked out,

but impressed.

That's nothing!

Watch this!

Now that is impressive,

Master Toby!

Just Toby is fine, Orrin.

Toby!

What are you doing?

I said to read these books,

not destroy them.

I... I just wanted to test

Da Vinci's theories.

I, perhaps...

...encouraged...

...Master Toby,

...sir.

You should not

be wearing that hat.

A robot should not be

wearing my son's...

...Toby's hat.

Dad, it's fine.

I don't even like that hat.

I think you should

go to your room.

But, Dad...

- Do as what you're told!

Tenma?

What's wrong?

I think I made

a terrible mistake.

I thought he would

be like Toby!

But it's not!

It is strange.

he's very strange.

Strange?

Osamu Tezuka

Osamu Tezuka (Japanese: 手塚 治虫, born 手塚 治, Hepburn: Tezuka Osamu, (1928-11-03)3 November 1928 – 9 February 1989) was a Japanese manga artist, cartoonist, animator, and film producer. Born in Osaka Prefecture, his prolific output, pioneering techniques, and innovative redefinitions of genres earned him such titles as "the father of manga", "the godfather of manga" and "the god of manga." Additionally, he is often considered the Japanese equivalent to Walt Disney, who served as a major inspiration during Tezuka's formative years.Tezuka began what was known as the manga revolution in Japan with his New Treasure Island published in 1947. His legendary output would spawn some of the most influential, successful, and well received manga series including Astro Boy, Kimba the White Lion, Black Jack, and Phoenix, all of which won several awards. Tezuka died of stomach cancer in 1989. His death had an immediate impact on the Japanese public and other cartoonists. A museum was constructed in Takarazuka dedicated to his memory and life works, and Tezuka received many posthumous awards. Several animations were in production at the time of his death along with the final chapters of Phoenix, which were never released. more…
