Are Gigantor and Big O the same?

by

I have a theory. The anime Big O is really Gigantor: The Next Generation. We don’t know for certain what Paradigm City was like before the memories were lost. All we know has come from confusing clues given by untrustworthy people.

The characters. Who’s who?

    Heh! Interesting relation. I never really thought of it that way while watching the Big O series. I kinda have to agree with you on this one. :)
