Watanabe has two shows airing simultaneously. How often does something like that happen?
Awesomely Shitty
-"That purace has more badassu maddafaakas zan supermax spaceland."
-On EMF, as a thread becomes longer, the likelihood that fem-Kaworu will be mentioned increases exponentially.
-the only English language novel actually being developed in parallel to its Japanese version involving a pan-human Soviet in a galactic struggle to survive and to export the communist utopia/revolution to all the down trodden alien class and race- one of the premise being that Khrushchev remains and has abandoned Lysenko stupidity

As often as the second world war, or the big bang. I'd say, enjoy it, while it lasts... Those two shows might not be his best offerings, but both of them are very entertaining and far beyond what other shows this season manage to pull off.

Watanabe is a Rockstar of animation. He's John Woo and Tarantino, mixed with the essence of Ridley Scott and Stanley Kubrick.

I'm still waiting for another episode with Adelie. :tongue:

So far my favorite episodes have been

1) The Search for the Phantom Space Ramen, Baby

2) A World with No Sadness, Baby

3) A Merry Companion Is a Wagon in Space, Baby

4) There's Always Tomorrow, Baby

5) I Can't Be the Only One, Baby

Hoping the last 2 will be as good as these ones.

Watanabe is more like Kojima without the NANOMACHINES.

The recent "Lovers Are Trendy, Baby" is also a great episode. Really awesome writing and direction.

The lovers are trendy and slow and steady ones were really good. The "high school musical" one I didn't like at first but it grew on me.

My favorite part-

Fell so far behind on all my series this season. Just let me know if this is the end or there'll be more.

Oh man, what a cliffhanger! Perhaps it is because this show has never had an ongoing story to begin with, which makes it all sweeter.
SPOILER: Show
Perhaps we will finally see an explanation as to why Dr Gel is in constant pursuit?

This episodes was an absolute masterpiece. I don't even have words to describe what I just watched. EvangelionBebop/10


View Original PostC.A.P. wrote:What is really impressive about the episode is that (if the credits are true) Watanabe wrote it himself. Makes one wonder if this is his perspective of the series.

Not sure about his thoughts on the series but Watanabe always had a fascination with being trapped between life and death as shown in his other works. This was without a doubt the most Watanabe Dandy has ever been.

That was a pretty shagadelic ending. Anyone notice that Vicous's bird was hanging out with Gel and Bea? Gel also pulled a Gamagori in this one.

But yeah I love how Dandies universe revolves around Boobies, since he might sort of be a god I wonder if that means his actual universe also does that?

Aw man, it's a shame that Space Dandy ended. Especially the second cour/season was such a blast that I still want more Dandy.

"No you wouldn't. Oz's secret is he goes without food to buy that stuff. He hasn't eaten in years." - Brikhaus

"Often I get the feeling that deep down, your little girl is struggling with your embrace of filmfaggotry and your loldeep fixations, and the conflict that arises from such a contradiction is embodied pretty well in Kureha's character. But obviously it's not any sort of internal conflict that makes the analogy work. It's the pigtails." - Merridian
"Oh, Oz, I fear I'm losing my filmfag to the depths of Japanese pop. If only there were more films with Japanese girls in glow-in-the-dark costumes you'd be the David Bordwell of that genre." - Jimbo
"Oz, I think we need to stage an intervention and force you to watch some movies that aren't made in Japan." - Trajan
