The entity known as Mad Machine triggers a cascade of errors across all mechanical devices, leading to severe malfunctions throughout the city. This sudden technological breakdown plunges the urban area into disorder and confusion. Since Astro Boy is also a machine, he is not immune to these effects and begins to experience similar system failures. The situation escalates as the uncontrolled machinery creates a hazardous environment, threatening the stability of the community and putting Astro Boy’s own operational integrity at risk during the crisis.
