So the only reason anyone is giving an answer other than Astro Boy is because it's so obvious that we've all tacitly agreed to debate second place instead, right? It's debatable if Astroboy the anime is the most impactful of all time. The manga, no, because it's the unquestionable #1. I guess it depends on what counts kind of influence counts as "impactful". Astro Boy obviously had a huge impact on behind-the-scenes stuff that matters in how TV anime is made (low budgets, limited animation, outsourcing animation due to time constraints, international licensing) and the wave of copycats that followed was literally the birth of the modern anime industry. On the other hand, the actual content of the Astro Boy anime didn't have much of an impact at all. --- Congrats to 2017 Guru champ BKSheikah! <cite>Xeybozn posted [p:892074200] in What would...
