Bechdel-test passing ftw indeed!

I have no comment. I admire your willpower. ...I just don't have it.

Oh, man, the character design differences can bring up some really interesting questions. But I still encourage waiting until you've read all of Pluto to read the original arc, because Urasawa is just so good at suspense.

Pluto doesn't deal with the commission of atrocities nearly as much as FMA does, to be honest. It does have some very strong pacifistic themes, though. Which is very much in keeping with Tezuka, who was very anti-war. (Someone has to have written about this, it's such a great topic...)

...I might have gotten a text yesterday which read "I'm reading 20th Century Boys and it's amazing and all your fault." It made my day.

Her character design is so cute! Her role is so heartbreaking!
I do enjoy the challenge, I admit. Gesicht demands so much intellectual engagement!

Also, um, I have been wondering, do I need to hurt people at the Post Office for their failure to deliver letters?
