Reviews

Dotbankey A lot of fun.
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
kill-the-boxtrolls I had watched several Space Dandy episodes already and so far, there is little but complex plots in the episodes and no plot at all to move the series along. We had the first season, where Dandy talked about body parts when he sees women and there was an annoying woman who comes from a restaurant with its name taken from a private part. At first, I thought the series was extremely cool but as it gets further, you'll realize that Dandy is a pervert which makes us realize how disappointing he actually is.Then, when I heard that there was going to be a 2nd season arguably titled "Space Dandy 2" or "Space Dandy 2nd Season", I didn't really like the ideas of giving them a new title, it REALLY should've been one big show with whatever combined episodes.Pretty much each episode that I've seen have different writers and this was a bad thing if they're not careful enough to keep the show's brilliance.After looking at more episodes of this show, I thought that it was made to be a related anime or even a follow-up to Bebop because almost everything about it (despite some parts of Space Dandy) reminded me very much of Bebop and I also was disappointed yet satisfied. The thing is, the show tried too hard to be overly unique to Bebop like Dandy's perverted personality, him kissing Scarlett and an annoying little girl with the generic and annoying anime voice for little girls which made me go "Wow...". Not to mention that the opening looked childish with techno music that gives you a weird feeling about the show. Indeed the music is less memorable than Cowboy Bebop's and so is the story, art, sound, and character of this show. The voices fit the characters.The art and animation was excellent for the most part but in some parts of the show, they feel off compared to how they were intended for the series.I found out that this show was directed by the same person that directed Bebop and I was like "How did he go downhill?" Because I've seen a lot of shows from him and I never seen one that I thought was just as disappointing to some extent. And Adelie is an annoying character and overrated character that ruins the episode. Shows like this need to capture the same feel of Bebop.
brettrnz Space Dandy is what happens when Americans have too much influence in Japanese anime. Terrible character development, dull story lines, and excruciating forced humor are the three that mainly stick out of this abomination Watanabe ( whom i think is living in a world of regret now) has helped create. It's hard to believe the same creators of this show were behind Cowboy bebop. Cowboy Bebop was a masterpiece, an anime that won over the hearts of many in japan and in the western world with its story and its creative blend of cultures and themes. Why not find a way to continue that success by saying Spike survived the shootout or having episodes featuring journeys on individual bebop crew members, leading to them reuniting once more . Instead,such a mess of a ripoff show was created. I do hope a lesson was learned by the creators and hopefully Bebop may return one day.But in the meantime please take this sight for sore eyes off the air, its an embarrassment to all of anime.
jeremoosky If I could I would rate it -50, I mean, there is no continuity. no plot to plot episode, the writers just made it so willie nillie, it suck, the only reas I ever started watching it, was I heard it was supposed to be better than cowboy bebop, at least cowboy bebop had some cohesiveness I thought it was a fluke, in the first episode when they had all the main characters die, but 3 episodes later the crew and the whole damn universe become zombies, and yet, the next episode they continue on like nothing even happened. Its monotonis . The chicks with boobs hanging out were a nice touch, they offered a momentary distraction from the drek of a story through the use of karnnel pleasures.
Kell Sullins So far there have been 4 episodes that I know of. The first one had me laughing, and wondering how they would make it in to the second episode (no spoiler, but that part was good). That's where the fun stopped. Episode 2-4 have been absolutely laugh-less with no redeeming qualities whatsoever, except for the decent animation style and (if you want to count it) the abundance of animated boobs. And though it hurts me to say this, because I really wanted to see this show succeed, I sincerely hope they cancel this show ASAP. I've been watching the dubs, it's awful. This show does not need to continue. It is a waste of anime viewing time and hopefully will NOT be considered the first "mainstream anime" as another site put it. Let Soul Eater or something else take that spot. I'm gonna go wash my eyes out with some Fairy Tail now.
