Go Astro Boy Go! (GO!GO!アトム, Go! Go! Atomu; lit. "Go! Go! Atom") is an animated television spin-off of the Astro Boy franchise created by Osamu Tezuka. Aimed at preschoolers, the series was produced by Planet Nemo and Tezuka Productions.

The series had its global debut in China on MangoTV on August 2, 2019.[1] In Japan, the series premiered on TX Network stations on October 3, 2019.[2]

Production

[edit | edit source]

During the 2014 Annecy International Animated Film Festival, Tezuka Productions announced it was developing new episodes of Little Astro Boy, an earlier iteration of the franchise aimed at preschool audiences.[3] In 2016, it was revealed that this would be an entirely separate production under the same name created with France's Something Big.[4] The series was later re-titled to Go Astro Boy Go! in 2018.[5]

The international version of the show features an intro song composed by Norbert Gilbert and performed by Andy Chase. An instrumental of the track is used for the credits. The Japanese version of the series features a new theme song by Doberman Infinity called by ASTRO BOY ~ GO! GO! Atom ~.[6] The Endless World by Transfer Girls is used for the end credits.[7] On April 2, 2020, the new ending theme was performed by Girls² with a song called Zuttomo Heart Beats.[8]
