📖 SYNOPSIS
Dr. Tenma infiltrates a secure facility and steals a highly advanced digital brain genome, prompting the Ministry of Science and the police to intervene. After securing the genome, he embarks on a journey to Mars, where he integrates it into a small robot. Upon completing his creation, Dr. Tenma returns to Earth, crashing into the Ministry of Science and emerging with the newly built robot in his arms. Desperate to bring it to life, he persuades Dr. Ochanomizu to allow him to activate the robot, expressing the deep pain of waiting for someone who will never return. As the police arrive, unable to intervene, they watch as the robot awakens. The moment it comes to life, Dr. Tenma embraces it tightly, tears streaming down his face. At last, he has “revived” his beloved son, Tobio.
