Loving the wild west fight. Pretty good animation. I guess they are named after animals for a reason, huh? Dog is fierce, Donkey is strong, and Cat gets tired quickly (as shown when she kept complaining when walking thru the desert(?)). And is the pink-haired kid supposed to be the chicken (rooster)? What kind of personality/attitude does she have that's similar to a rooster?
Or is there just no rooster in this story?

This was new to me. I never heard of The Town Musicians of Bremen. As such I don't know all the changes that were made. Entertainment wise it was meh for me.

The ideas + the intentions are there - but as a whole... there's something missing in order to make it really work

It's still enjoyable mostly due to the four main characters whose personalities are really well defined...

Wades Brothers are hot! At least 3 of them anyway, not sure why there are four since the original only has 3 robbers, but not surprised since there are so many Grimm's adaptations.

Grimm Brothers get cameo again as the assistants of the sheriff.

So the setting is western cyberpunk this time, interesting... I was gonna say this is the first time for the anime and then I remember Trigun is also western cyberpunk.

@RealNath That girl had the role of a rooster because she was working as an informer at first

This episode was a bit predictable.

Nevertheless, it could be enjoyed.

And in my opinion, more attention could have been paid to the character of the rooster.

The Town Musicians of Bremen alternative version, a mixed western and feminism!!

The worst plot or adaptation of all the episodes, since the plot develops very quickly, there is no background in the characters and apart from the fight for survival, the rest is very boring.

3/10

This one was really fun! I liked how they were just outright an adventuring party. And it's pretty rare to see wild west settings in anime!

A rooster keeps watch over the coop; she’s the lookout.

I enjoyed this episode so much, I would love to see new episodes about those 4 women. It was a good episode and the protagonists were a lot more entertaining and interesting. Maybe this is the best episode so far with the first one. The character designs of the characters were well done, the design of the brothers reminds me a little bit of Jojo.

@Ranxomare Jokes aside, this is your typical Amazon action from the 90s and 00s. Many anime from that time are considered classics and cult among yuri or just all-female fans because of such tropes, lmao.

@LAboy456 I guess because it turned out to be too formulaic and trope-ish, which is why it looked more like the most ordinary all-female action show from the 00s than past original arthouse episodes.

Well, I would say this is the weakest one so far. It's all style, and no substance.
The whole cyber cowboy is cool, and the character design are pretty nice, but other than that, this one is the most generic of them all. The plot is boring, predictable, the characters are generic, trope-ish, and It's just flashy action scenes.

This episode was fantastic, our core set of characters this episode had pretty great chemistry. The showdown with them against the wade brothers was also very cool. I think there was an excellent contrast since they both had the same goal of outcasts who make a living for themselves.

I was waiting for the reveal that they were lying to Rooster about her not being wanted, but it hits harder that they were honest.

Never read the original but, I'll say the protagonists were really cool in this version. Fights were good too

When the sheriff entered the saloon, surprisingly he was accompanied by Grimm brothers. I haven't seen them inside other stories. Interesting, were they in other stories as well?
