I'll be looking forward to this, I don't give a crap about this "saving anime" or any of that other bullshit folks seem to be spouting but on the whole it looks like it's got potential. While I sigh at the idea of missing out on bones splendid action animation(?) I'm always up for a fun comedy with enjoyable characters.

I'm rather looking forward to this series. A lot of talented people are working on it and it looks like it could be good silly fun. And I can't help but love "Space Dandy is... a dandy guy in the space," bad grammar and all.

According to people that were at Otakon, Watanabe said it's only gonna be a 13 episode series, but they will make more if it's popular.

Also, they showed a trailer. Looks awesome:

Hah, the first thought that popped into my head was Funimations' "Boobies FTW". I can't believe they actually made a boobies song

Well Watanabe certainly had a great sense of humor at the panel itself. He had the whole room laughing several times. Smile

Edit: about the restaurant name Watanabe said you know Hooters they have that in space too.


Hooters is still quite new in Japan.

I think that music in the first half would definitely not be out of place for Yoko Kanno, since they haven't announced the composer yet.

There are about 4 composers working on it it and they will create around 30 songs.

You got it mixed up.
20 artists with 3-4 songs per artist.


Cool.

Yeah, though the trailer has some nice action with the running, explosions, and some ray gun shooting, so it looks like there will be some even though it's supposed to be mainly a comedy.

Those girls are cute, no doubt... but I dunno, there's just something missing... something Watanabe's girls have Laughing

Hmm. I'm not one for sci-fi comedies in anime, but it's Shinichiro [expletive] Watanabe!

...We'll see.
