Looking forward to seeing what this series has in store!

A couple things worth nothing about this series:

It actually debuted in China first. It began airing on China's streaming service, Mango TV, on August 2, 2019. I believe only VIP users of the site can view the show. It is called "Astro Boy: Earth's Little Hero" (铁臂阿童木之地球小英雄) in China.

Also, Go Astro Boy Go is the second preschool Astro Boy show; as mentioned in this article, Little Astro Boy (which aired in 2014 in Nigeria) is the first preschool Astro Boy show. In fact, Go Astro Boy Go was originally titled "Little Astro Boy" during development before the name was changed to Go Astro Boy Go in 2018, as mentioned in this thread on page 6:

English and French dubs should be on the way too, though there's no confirmation of when they'll come out at this time.
