Not sure what to think about this.


Title: Heroman
Genre: Shounen, Action, Mecha,
Airs: 04/01 18:00
Animation Studio: BONES
Summary from MangaHelpers:
Joey wants to be a hero, but he's just an orphan who works day and night to take care of himself and his grandmother. After seeing a commercial for a toy robot, he desperately wants one, thinking the robot will give him the strength to change. The only one he can afford, though, is a broken one a rich school bully threw in the trash. When Rina, a pretty cheerleader who's always been nice to him, is kidnapped, will Joey and his toy robot be able to become heroes and rescue her?
Kenn's Comment: The manga is by Stan Lee (the story is at least), the creator of Spiderman, and many of the iconic super heroes of Marvel.  The story is kinda like "...what?" but it's not exactly terrible either. With the BONES on the job though, I'm sure they can pull it off and make Stan Lee proud. They should've done ULTIMO though. I like it better. Joint project between Stan Lee and Hiroyuki Takei, the creator and mangaka of Shaman King.
