Pluto Chapter 65 Discussion

The ending was a little underwhelming compared to the rest of the story. I really liked all of the characters that died and didn't really care about the characters that didn't. Some of Atom's lines like MY HATRED IS GREATER THAN YOURS, reminded me of the stuff that gets made fun of in Naruto all the time. lol.



Dr. Roosevelt was clearly that huge machine behind the teddy bear... a robot that couldn't move (so really, a computer).



I have to say... the poorly veiled stabs at USA bugged me a lot. It would've been fine if the author had just come out and said it was about that; what was the point of half renaming the country if he was just going to draw a map of it later on, complete with the names of the states? I don't really enjoy real-life political commentary smugly 'hiding' itself in my entertainment.



I really liked the mystery and how Gesicht's backstory was revealed. I teared up so many times. The setting was fascinating. I can't really wish that the story were longer since the mystery was perfectly paced, but I do wish that the world could be explored more.



I doubt Atom told Brau to kill anyone. That's too backhanded for him. Atom apparently doesn't kill anyone and I doubt he would try to loophole his own morales by asking someone else to.

I’m a bit conflicted about the ending. Nevertheless,  good manga. Enjoyed fit all the way through

Love the ending, although needed a few spoilers to understand it:

I absolutely loved this manga. Although I agree that the teddy bear probably could have just been left out, it didn't bother me too much. Even without much time, you kinda get the gist of how the bear wanted to eliminate the other powerful robots so that it could be in charge after all non-robot life was wiped out. I REALLY need to get to 20th Century Boys now though! If what I've heard is true, I might enjoy it even more than Pluto and Monster :O

so there is no solution to the cycle of hate since negative emotions like hate is needed for intelligence evolution too



i still do not know what is the unforgivable crime of the brother of Adolf though but still a nice manga about robots and hate

Engaging storyline with very interesting characters. Ending felt a bit underwhelming though but I thought it kept the momentum and balance well all the way from the very beginning. 8/10. Anime adaptation when?



Edit: I hope MAPPA adapts this in the future as I've heard that they plan to adapt something that is "old".

This whole manga I found to be a tad overrated. I personally think it gets too much hype since the author's made two other brilliant stories (Monster/20th Century Boys), but in reality I found I didn't really give a shit about any of the characters lol.





indeed



its nowhere 20 CB status..



but still it was nice to read..



a little bit predictable but good enough..



though yeah 20 CB is his best creation







the reviews are so overrated...  like seriously..

I cant understand why you guys complain so much. I can say the ending was good. I have to admit that its the best ending he ever made (i compare it with 20CB and Monster). You know who the teddy bear is, you know about gesicht child. So basicly you know every major thing about the manga. The only bad thing i can find is tha he dont deepen into Brau's back story (i would love to learn more about him and why he killed that human). And last the part that Brau escapes crawling is a bit strange.





I want to say what i believe about the reason that brau killed that human i believe that  he killed him for similar reason that gesicht did. But i am not sure. Maybe Naoki already saw it to us and we just didnt get it.   (sorry for my bad English)
