Space Dandy

Welcome back anime lovers!

The new anime Space Dandy is going to be the main topic of the day. I'm sure you've all heard about it by now. Its about three alien hunters named QT, the robot who for some reason has his voice auto tuned and seems to be the only person on the ship with any common sense. Meow, a lazy, anime loving, ramen eating cat alien with a serious social media addiction. I would have to say that Meow is my favorite out of the three. Last, but not least, the main character, Dandy. He's the leader of the group and pilots his hawaiian theme ship the 'Aloha Oe'.

Dandy also has an addiction.....a booby addiction. He's a faithful customer at a well known restaurant named Boobies where their is nothing but hot girls wearing nothing, tiny bathing suits that wait on you had and foot. I would go to a place like that, too if their was nothing but hot guys.

Anyway, like I said before these three are alien hunters, but they don't hunt down aliens to kill them. They hunt them down to capture and get them registered for money. That is, if its a unknown or super rare alien which Dandy has a bit of a problem doing. One time he got so desperate that he thought he could trick them by disguising Meow has some kind of unknown alien. Even though, they don't catch alot of aliens, we do get to see them get involved in some crazy stuff.

My favorite episodes so far would have to be when they turned into zombies and when that hot girl turned out to be a hideous alien who will eat about anything. Also, this show is kind if pointless, but has a storyline at the same time. The show has nothing, but funny and exciting adventures. You can tell that's the case because if one if them died and you went to the next episode their back again like they didn't just die. At the same time a space war is going on about who gets to control the universe and the leader of the opposing empires thinks that Space Dandy holds the key to winning the war. Why he believe that remains to be seen.

What makes this so funny is that the leader if the empire gave him an army to help him go after Dandy, but has yet to get him. Its either because Dandy does something crazy or stupid that gets them warped somewhere so far that they lose his trail or their to chicken to and on a certain planet because of aliens or that Dandy and his crew are just too to catch. Either way it doesn't look like their going to catch him anytime soon.

When I heard that the same people who made Soul Eater and Samurai Champloo made this show, I had to see it. Then, when I saw the first episode I thought that the theme of the show stupid and brilliant at the same time. It was like combining old and new by giving them a futuristic setting but also giving it a 70s like flare. For example, when the opening credits come on you can instantly tell that they tried to make it as if this was made in the 70s with the art and the  music.

All in all this, is a very good show to entertain yourself with. If you like hot girls, action, robots, weird looking aliens and watching Dandy and his crew make fools of themselves then this definetly the anime for you. Also, I don't think this a manga, but I think they'll most likely make one soon for us to enjoy.

Thanks for reading!
