-======Pluto====== 
  
-**Pluto** (also known as **Bruton**) is a recurring character in Tezuka'​s Astro Boy franchise. In all of his appearances,​ he has been made to defeat other robots so he can be the strongest robot in the world. He isn't much of a thinker, although in the end he stopped following his orders and eventually befriended [[characters:​Astro]]. 
- 
-=====Appearances===== 
-====Original Manga==== 
-Pluto (Bruton) appeared in the [[:​darkhorse|original manga]], more specifically in the [[darkhorse:​volume 3|third volume]] and the "The Greatest Robot on Earth" story arc. 
- 
-====1980s series==== 
- 
-{{ :​characters:​255px-pluto.jpg|Pluto as he appeared in the 1980s series.}} 
- 
-In the [[episodes:​1980|1980s series]], he was made by a masked man employed by a greedy sultan to become the ruler of the robot world, defeating the "​World'​s Strongest Robots"​ - [[characters:​Mont-Blanc]],​ [[characters:​Molnar|North #2]], [[characters:​Brondo]],​ [[characters:​Gerhardt]],​ [[characters:​Hercules]],​ [[characters:​Epsilon]] and [[characters:​Astro]]. He was eventually defeated by [[characters:​Bora]]. 
- 
-He is known as Bruton in the English dub. 
- 
-====2003 series==== 
- 
-In the 2003 series, he serves as the primary antagonist of Episodes 13 and 14, [[episodes:​2003:​the rise of pluto|The Rise of Pluto]] and [[episodes:​2003:​the fall of acheron|The Fall of Acheron]]. In these episodes, many of the robots that had appeared earlier reappear, although many have been completely redesigned or replaced. Pluto, at first, faces Harley, a rocket ball player robot. Also defeated are [[characters:​Delta]],​ a police robot, [[characters:​Epsilon]],​ a female pacifist and sister of Delta, and also Hercules, a Greek gladiator robot that can defeat most single-handedly. However, he was eventually defeated by [[characters:​Acheron]],​ an exact duplicate of him without Kokoro. He then had another appearance in the Robotonia episodes, where he fought alongside the [[characters:​Blue Knight]] and [[characters:​Astro]]. However, when the Blue Knight wanted to destroy the humans and Astro didn'​t,​ Pluto eventually went with Astro. This appearance implied he was rebuilt. Just like the previous series, he has a relationship with [[characters:​Uran]],​ only this time it is stronger to the point where he is almost in love. 
- 
-He is built by [[characters:​Shadow]] in this series, who in turn is a robot made by [[characters:​Dr Tenma|Dr. Tenma]] who eventually rebelled against his master. Also, his main weapon was changed from his horns to a series of homing missiles located in his chest. 
- 
-=====Confrontations===== 
- 
-As all of Pluto'​s appearances are part of 'The Greatest Robot in the World' story arc (with the 1980s series and 2003 series'​ episodes being simply remakes) most of the robots he faces are more or less the same throughout the series. Here is a table to show them:
