Side notes: I'm not familiar with the Atom boy series at all but it seems that this story takes place about 20-30 years before the main story. The art is "old" but not as much as the original work is due of the age difference of the mangas but it is still made to "look old fashioned." It feels also pretty normal shounen manga by the setting but it probably gets deeper as it is Seinen manga. The first translated chapter is published and I'm waitin go read some more... so it's not a total waste of time.^-^
