Abstract: This journal will discuss the topic of humanism as a subject brought by the
genre of science fiction—specifically in the animated series Astro Boy. The social
and psychological commentary of the idea given that, if an intelligent life were not
human, would you and others treat it the same way? It is depicted in Astro Boy
through still and moving images to tell a story about people and humanity. It is
expressed in a neat and concise way as to be understood by all audiences from every
background. It’s the reason why the series is so popular worldwide, even to this day.
