YMMV / Astro Kid

• Fanfic Fuel: What kind of adventures did Willy and Flash have during the 10 month Time Skip? What creatures did they discover for example?
• Fridge Logic: Why is Willy allowed to keep Buck after the movie? Buck is a survival robot that was part of the standard equipment of the escape pod, and whose only purpose is to help those that use the escape pod survive till rescue arrives. It would make more sense that, now that his mission to help Willy is completed, he'd be repurposed for a new escape pod. One could argue that the ship and the escape pod where both property of Willy's parents, and thus by extend so is Buck, but this seems unlikely.
• Nightmare Fuel: The poison scene; Willy pricks his finger on a plant, and his entire body slowly gets covered in a blue rash that will kill him in minutes. As Buck desperately searches for a potential cure, and Flahs runs off to get one, Willy loses consciousness and has a fever induced dream in which he sees his parents, only to lose them again after they tell him he doesn't need them anymore.
