As far as Netflix adaptations go, Pluto, the 2023 8-episode anime series adapting Naoki Urasawa's take on Tezuka's Astro Boy, was certainly a success. Generally well received, with an 8.3 rating on IMDb and a pretty high 8.6 score on MyAnimeList, Pluto appears to have charmed audiences in a historical moment when ideas of artificial intelligence and sentient technology resonate with viewers worldwide. In addition to developing an interesting — and sometimes uncanny — near-future world where robots have theoretically gained the same rights as human beings, the show exploits its sci-fi setting to force the audience into facing deeply human dilemmas, from the value of life to the inevitability of war and from racism to the meaning of parenthood and love.
