SolviteSekai said: It was very well received on Toonami so I don't know what you are talking about. So what if it has fanservice? The sexual fanservice doesn't take over the anime like what you would find in an ecchi anime. As I said before it is just your opinion that it sucks, it is not a fact. I never said or implied that since it is directed by Watanabe it is automatically good. It is not perfect but also not terrible as you constantly claim.DrGeroCreation said: SolviteSekai said: That is just your opinion, just because you think it's terrible doesn't mean it is. It makes sense that it wouldn't be that well received in Japan because it is western influenced like Cowboy Bebop. It obviously would appeal a lot more to western audiences (mainly American) than Japanese otakus. Where is your proof that most of Mal thinks it sucks? That is a generalization ,not everyone who likes Space Dandy is a Cowboy Bebop fan. Space Dandy isn't even that similar to Cowboy Bebop, the only similarities they have are that they were created by Watanabe, are episodic and set in space and the characters use a spaceship to travel around.I don't like space dandy because it is terrible. Don't force a bunch of underlying reasons on it. The show sucks. Japan knows it. Most of mal knows it. The only people who seem to still make excuses for it are people who liked cowboy bebop so much that they will defend every show related to it for the rest of time. Then why isn't it well received in America? Or or the internet? Or anywhere? The fucking show is full of pandering, fan service, and dumb jokes. It is the perfect example of something Japanese Otaku like. Also thats exactly why fanboys should stop defending it. It sucks. The fact that it was directed by Watanabe doesn't magically make it good. By that fucking logic, Samurai Flamenco was AOTY 2013 because the director of Durarara made it. |

| So space dandy has good ratings compared to reruns and black lagoon, when it is slotted in the earliest timeslot? Are those ratings supposed to be good now? |
SolviteSekai said: Space Dandy had a higher rating than a popular battle shonen anime like One Piece so yes I would say it has damn good ratings plus the One Piece episodes shown on Toonami aren't reruns .So space dandy has good ratings compared to reruns and black lagoon, when it is slotted in the earliest timeslot?

You seem to be confusing "good ratings" with "good ratings compared to the other stuff on toonami" |
SolviteSekai said: I don't believe so .There is nothing that shows it has or had bad ratings on Toonami so my previous point still stands that it was well received on Toonami.DrGeroCreation said: SolviteSekai said: I still don't see how it (Space Dandy) doesn't have good ratings on Toonami as you are implying.DrGeroCreation said: SolviteSekai said: Space Dandy had a higher rating than a popular battle shonen anime like One Piece so yes I would say it has damn good ratings plus the One Piece episodes shown on Toonami aren't reruns .So space dandy has good ratings compared to reruns and black lagoon, when it is slotted in the earliest timeslot?

Precisely! IT MADE PEOPLE GET FEELS OVER PLANTS If that isn't good writing, I don't know what is. So Space Dandy is good because Trigun was good? Uh, no. That's not what they meant. its not what they said, its what they meant. That's not what I meant. I've only seen like 3 or 4 episodes of Trigun and that one movie. |
| When other shows do ecchi, comedy and little plot suddenly it's horrible, the hypocrisy is disgusting. Toonami ratings? it's barely above bleach even when it has fillers and space dandy airs earlier too which is a disgrace. |

| There is a better way of asking. I think what the OP means is that he just wants to hear others opinions and views on the series. I ask this quite alot as well, especially fairy tail. I don't understand it has such a huge fan following, other people hate it well other people love it and i just want fans to share that insight with me and tell me some of the negative or positive aspects to the show. To answer the OP's question. This series has quite alot of parodies and references from other shows and the humerus tone of the show is really the selling point. Its just a shame that story didn't really go anywhere, it kind of felt a bit redundant after a while and im sure alot of people feel this same way in some regards. I am hoping that the S2 will kind of move forward a bit on the pacing of the actual story. |

And like ichii said, its funny how fan service and references are ok when Shaft or Bones do it, but not when others do it. |
SolviteSekai said: Have people still not accepted that this show is mediocre? There's a limit to how far a famous director can carry a bad show. Someone give me some reasons for why I should pick this back up. the show is mediocre at best, quite boring actually but why do you complain about other people enjoying the show? :/ |

| I think the shows really suffers from inconsistency. Some episodes are simply great and others are just plain boring. I guess its the problem episodic anime tend to have in general... |
| Lets keep the hype train rolling. |
| this show is a lot of fun, and it looks great. And yeah it actually has a pretty large fanbase in america. The fact that its getting a season 2 is evidence of that. |
| Daimidaler which is currently airing is much more fun to watch. I laughed in every episode. Space dandy barely made me laugh |
| luckily only westerns get these hype ~.~ |
WyattEarp said: this show is a lot of fun, and it looks great. And yeah it actually has a pretty large fanbase in america. The fact that its getting a season 2 is evidence of that. No it is split cour. There was always going to be a "season 2" FWIW this shows sales are god awful so Japan doesnt like it either. |
| Totally, one of the best shows in the past few years. A jewel |
| I finally watched the first episode and it was pretty meh aside from the art and music. I'll give it a few more episodes but I don't know. |
| Basically every PV told us this show would be a mindlessly fun watch with all sorts of zany antics and imagination put into it along with great music and that's exactly what we got. Even with the director and the space setting I have absolutely no idea why people were expecting a Bebop 2.0 |
