BigSimo, thank you for enlightening post that most us wanted to do.

Art is about perspective, and resonates differently between everyone, but being an ignorant troll that couldn't do 1% of what the Space Dandy crew does is pretty annoying.

cruzateu, go watch more Steins;Gate and Guilty Crown. Amazing art style! So inventive!

Poor fish. The episode may come where Dandy will be able to register an unregistered alien but that episode is not this episode.

Although not as trippy as it was in the episode with those talking plant thingies, the art and animation in this was just as good and surreal. I also liked the planetary system in this episode, very imaginative. Space Dandy has always been very good at creatively utilising its setting.
And the space gorilla guy died like for the 3rd time now. Thankfully for him the episodes are standalone stories and everything will reset in the next episode.

I liked that fishes attitude towards the beginning, but then he became suicidal which I don't like.

I'm disappointed with this season

The episodes thus far haven't been very high quality. Some of them seem odd because of how quiet they are (no music, limited sound effects, etc.).

What happened to Cowboy Bebop's director directing the series? Did he hand it off to someone else? That would explain why I don't like it anymore.


omg do some research people.
1. watanabe only has a hand in the overall direction of the show, given that he is chief director and not the actual director (that would be Natsume Shingo).
2. space dandy is essentially a collection of auteur works - WHAT THAT MEANS is that each episode is written and directed by someone different (on quite a few occasions the director will also write the ep, and in the case of Yuasa Masaaki (this episode), also does the storyboards and basically everything else). This is why the animation style and tone seem to change every episode. It has nothing to do with budget. This show has a very good budget, and anyone calling the animation 'bad' needs to do some research into animation and art.This episode has by far the best animation of the entire show, alongside perhaps episode 9 from the previous season and episode 5 of this season.
3. Watanabe wrote the very first episode and episode 9 (which he co-wrote). That is all. He also came up with the characters I believe, and the general scenario. I imagine his involvement, especially this season, is super minimal.
4. The entire deal with Space Dandy is that it's a big cave and anyone creative is invited to come along and contribute something. It's a production experiment essentially (though only in basic terms, it's still very well managed - there's just a lot of creative freedom). This includes the soundtrack, which has like over twenty different people contributing tunes.


holy shit, didnt know that! That's awesome.

That was some Yuasa shit right there.

Another amazing episode. Not too high on the humor, but I love how the series is finally starting to embrace the freedom it started with, this is just experimental, weird, creative awesomeness.

Is it just me or did the animation seem different in this episode?

The animation was fantastic. I loved the way Dandy wasn't surprised or angry at all when Meow teleported his head. Relax and take it easy. Fried fish...

Man, it blows my mind how they got through the trouble of explaining all of those marvelous space phenomenons as scientifically as possible even if it sounds very stupid, but they make it work anyway, it like this show doesn't even have to touch upon that side of storytelling but it does it anyway, and you know what? That's a welcomed treat.
Poor little fish got burnt into a crisp delicious meal, at least the crew went off on a full stomach at the end of the day. Those planet names were hilarious.

I just love Space Dandy. This was such a weird WTF episode..actually every single one so far of S02 has been really spaced out. Don't know Ping Pong but the style really worked well with this really weird story.

No wonder the artstyle seemed familiar. It gave me ping pong/kaiba vibes. Feell sorry for the fish,his heart was burning for that woman,but he ended up burning himself up in the end. Atleast they got a good meal out if it.

This episode wasn't nearly as weird as I thought it would be. I actually found the first part quite comical! I like Dandy's approach to life, just kick back and relax. No use getting worked up over stuff. I do the same thing for the most part.

Didn't really like the art style, it seemed kind of awkward. But hey, that's part of the style of the show!

Plant episode is still the only bad episode of this show!

ARE YOU INSANE thats like the best episode of dandy!!

Less than a minute in this episode and already recognize the different artsyle. Funniest episode so far especially when Dandy casually fell from the invisible Manta(?) and when the fish got grilled from the sun xD
