I think the dub is actually pretty good. My only complaint is that the volume of certain characters' voices is too low.

The plot gets better and better. Aisha looks like an interesting character and we will most likely see her soon. I wonder what Hilda's true intentions are. Looking forward to next episode.

Hilda is a cool character. I wonder if she can whip Gene into becoming a proper space outlaw.

I'm glad they finally found the ship. I remember growing up on the dub so I decided to watch it subbed this time. :)

I like Aisha's voice. It seems to fit her personality. Melfina's irritates me more, though. It seems so... stale.

I grew up with the dub so there's really no other way to watch it.

Cool episode.

A more fitting name for these Ctarl Ctarl guys would be idiots in space.

Another great episode!!! Seems Hilda just became the unofficial "leader" of the group.

Aisha looks cute! I thought she was voiced by Nero Saber, but she's actually the same VA as Asuka Langley from Evangelion!

Next one!

The Ctarl-Ctarl crew were pretty funny. I laughed every time they chanted stuff. Awesome colors and backgrounds and stuff in this episode as usual.

Horus: 'They claim they have the right of way.' Just normal space road rage, no bigs. Ctarl-Ctarl Empire is a riot lol.
Aisha having temper tantrums is pretty cute. That's awesome she's the same voice actor as Asuka (Which I just learned from SomaHeir up above in this discussion). That's epic.

Beautiful space scenery.

Aisha is already annoying, so I can't imagine I'll get used to all those "nyans." Talk about a product of the past.

I don't hardly remember anything about this show, except maybe a few random commercials. But, it looks like we're closing in on this special ship. For some reason I want to think the name of the ship is "Outlaw Star." If so, I imagine things will really pick up from there.

Episode 2:
"If you want to learn about Melfina, repair my arm and I will fill you in."

"What makes that girl such a big prize?" "Once she's awake, ask her yourself."

After that: Crickets chirping. They fly to Blue Heaven and spend the night. Do they take the time to talk about Melfina? Does James talk with her while they are in their room? Of course not. Because apparrently the characters actually don't care.

Episode 3: They have several hours to kill during their spacetravel. Do they take the time to ask questions and explain things? No, instead we get bad jokes because Mr. Womanizer MC tries to get into Hildas panties.

And why are they not the least bit concerned that the enemy attacks them and then suddenly lets them escape?


Sadly the story isn't that impressive so far.

The plot for me is just getting better and better. Aisha looks to be an interesting character and one thing I noticed seeing as I'm watching the dub for this, she's got the same voice actress as Rogue in the 90s X-Men animated series, Lenore Zann.

The amount of times anybody said: “The Ctarl Ctarl Clan” especially from Jim didn't feel like words anymore to me and just felt silly to me. I get it they are meant to be a big deal in this world but there's no need to say the name so many times here.

Otherwise pretty good action here and I will say that Aisha is making me laugh a lot. I kinda know she's going to be a part of the crew cuz she's always alongside Gene, Jim and Melfina in the final shot there. Not much else but once again a pretty good episode here. Outlaw Star is nothing but consistently good at this point.

Aisha just has to be the most unlikely ambassador ever. She sure doesn't behave in a diplomatic way, doesn't she? Being a cat girl like she is, I expect we'll see plenty of fan service about her. All the sexual references this show is filled with are also endlessly amusing - I loved that little bit of banter between Hilda and Gene at the 15:20 mark. She's definitely too much of a tough cookie for him to handle!
