Pluto, the new series on Netflix, is an adaptation of the critically acclaimed manga of the same name by Naoki Urasawa and Takashi Nagasaki. The series is based on an arc in Osamu Tezuka‘s classic manga Astro Boy, but is a standalone story that can be enjoyed by viewers new to the franchise.

“Pluto” brings us back to the purest tradition of Japanese anime in the subgenre that perhaps has brought it more success: the futuristic dystopia.

Here we have a story that explores the coexistence between humans and robots, who start getting murdered.

Welcome to this dark world of detectives and robots, creators, and above all, many secrets to unveil.

Eight episodes to discover the universe of Naoki Urasawa and the already legendary Osamu Tezuka if you haven’t already.

Welcome to the world of Astro Boy.

Plot

Pluto is set in a future where robots live and work alongside humans.

Today we saw Detective Conan: The Culprit Hanzawa (Detective Conan: Hannin no Hanzawa-san), a pretty sarcastic prequel of Detective Conan, the Japanese animation series. The plot is about a mysterious silhouette, some murders and lots of humor.

It is based on the manga by Mayuko Kanba.

This is a very fun series, we assure you and the plot is pretty original too.

As of February 1 on streaming on Netflix, which offers us many new things.
