Chapter two! Again, sorry for the audio balance issues. I think it's a little worse in this video because of the types of music in this stage.

Also, did I say "Princess Sapphire from Princess Sapphire?" I meant "Princess Sapphire from Princess Knight," WHICH IS ACTUALLY BEING RELEASED IN THE US THIS YEAR BY VERTICAL INC. so y'all oughta read.

I added subtitles to Birth ch.1 (the previous video), so if you're having trouble hearing my voice in that, turn on the captions! I'll work on this one, too.

STAR SYSTEM ROUNDUP (thanks, Wikipedia!):
INSPECTOR TAWASHI - a common character in Tezuka's works, he appears quite often in Astro Boy, especially the 2003 series.
THE AMAZING 3 / WONDER 3 - animal crime fighters, who in their own story are actually agents from outer space sent to scout Earth to determine if it should be destroyed.
LEO / KIMBA - the white lion, the emperor of the jungle! Not actually in the Omega Factor in this game, but functions as a part of Pook.
POOK - a lil babby robot who will become important later. Somehow remembers who Astro is. From Tezuka in English: "He appeared originally as a secondary character in the Crusiform Island story arc of the Astro Boy manga, where he served as both antagonist and ally..."
BIG X - Another do-gooder who's running after Kinsankaku. In the original story, Big X was not a character, but rather a drug that could "expand the human body without limitation"; the character's name is apparently Akira.
SHERLOCK HOMESPUN / RAINBOW PARAKEET - a gentleman thief in his own series, a terrorist in the 2003 Astro Boy anime, and a detective in Omega Factor.
WALLY / SHUNSAKU BAN / HIGEOYAJI / MR. MOUSTACHIO / ETC - one of Tezuka's most well-known and often-used characters, Shunsaku Ban shows up EVERYWHERE. Astro Boy, Black Jack, MW, Marine Express, Metropolis, Kimba, everywhere. He's impossible to miss. He usually plays a good-natured detective, if a little rough around the edges. His nephew is almost always Kenichi, or Kennedy.
AMBASSADOR MAGMA - a big ol' golden robot whose job is to protect the Earth from evil. He will show up again later on.
KINSANKAKU - also known as the "Golden Triangle," he usually shows up as a crime boss in Tezuka's works.
SKUNK KUSAI - another often-used actor in the Star System, he's usually a gangster, hired muscle, or some other unsavory character. Pals around with Lamp and Ham Egg sometimes. Occasionally has a really icky blue-grayish complexion.
