Surrealism dandy

Holy fuck was that episode good

Agreed.

If only every episode was this good.

the quality totally took me by surprise, thought it was about to be a movie

ive never watched space dandy before, is it good?

>>110735699
Some episodes are better than others, overall it's pretty enjoyable. The animation is pretty good as well.
>>
>>110735699
it's a pleasing show, definitely interesting
>>
>>110735699
Yes it is, it's episodic so it's nice to just lay down and watch one episode every weeks

It's very fun, it's sometime clever but some episodes aren't very good

Fuck, I absolutely love shows that give each episode to a different director and let them loose. Yuasa did a really good job with this one. That boat scene in particular is one of the best animated sequences I've seen. Say what you will about Dandy, but if you love animation this show is filled with gems like that.
>>
>>110734147
The ending to this episode was quite emotional. And Dandy was based all through the episode.

The way Dandy ends each episode has a specific name and Google, TV Tropes and Wikipedia is failing me. Does anyone know what the episode ending format is called?

The English dub totally nailed the she-fish, fitting with the planets' theme and all.

How was she in the jap dub?

I really have the feeling that a lot of SD episodes have a very weak first half, and a very strong second.

>>110736845

I'm mainly familiar with his minimalistic works, so I was pretty surprised to see something like that from him. Maybe I'm exaggerating a bit due to it being on TV, but I still find it really impressive.

Well, that's because Dandy will never have a relationship strong enough to NTR away. However, other men just get there first or the women are lesbian betelgeusians.

>>110737759
Oh yeah. Meow got NTR'd as well.

>>110737399
Some episodes I feel are the opposite.

Not this one though. They spent about 3 minutes too long on getting Dandy and Meow firmly rooted into the plot. If they condensed that part a bit it would've been a 10/10 episode.

I thought it was kind of sweet how Meow tried to save Carpaccio's life. Given how in the heat of the moment the situation was, I doubt that he did it just so he could perhaps eat him layer. An oddly heroic, if ultimately futile, gesture.

Moon of course.

Cartoon Network is funding this, that's why the animation has been able to continue being experimental and high frame amount even though the BD/DVD sales in japan are medium-low. And it wouldn't work out for being a long series. Maybe if this was a kids show it could go on but even then the animation and stories would get shitty, there's only so much one project can do.

I wouldn't be so sure about that, Space Dandy is a pretty big success in America and it's well reviewed in Japan, this might encourage other animation studios to collaborate with American TV to make crazy projects like this one

Episode 9 last season had some seriously good art direction.

They dug their own grave.
>>
>>110756472
SnK I can get, but why the fuck was Bleach put before Dandy? It gets lower ratings despite being in an earlier time slot.
>>
>>110756508
Probably because Bleach has been in the same timeslot for years.
It's disgusting though how they're treating SNK and Bleach better than a world premier.
>>
>>110753943
reminds me so much of mind games
>>
>>110756590
Well, I guess with SnK they're trying to ride on the wave of its popularity (albeit with a less than stellar dub) and like you said, Bleach has been in that slot for awhile and it's what brings in the viewers.

I really hope that what >>110755862 proposed could one day become a reality. It would be great if a block like Toonami had more creative shows like Dandy. With the inevitability of shows like DBZ Kai coming in to replace Bleach though, that doesn't look like a realistic possibility.

But you're right. Yuasa really has a preoccupation with water and aquatic life. Except for maybe his Genius Party short and Adventure Time episode, I'm pretty sure everything he's done has featured an underwater creature behind a transparent surface.

I don't remember the quality on the horriblesubs release being such complete ass and recently messed around with my drivers, could someone possibly post a screenshot of the 720p version at about 1:16?

Isn't that the same animator from Tatami Galaxy?

>>110757376
There's nothing wrong with the dub.

>>110757386
It's Shinya Ohira. He did the OP for Ping Pong, but as far as I know, he didn't do anything for Tatami Galaxy.

No but there is.

In the Japanese version, Dandy has an accent and sort of "draws out" the ends of his words.

In the dub, the voice actor just reads his lines. There's no voice acting going on save for the occasional 'baby'
I DO like what they did with QTs voice in the dub. Meows voice is better in the japanese as well, carries a more "carefree" tone whereas again the dub just has the VA saying his lines.

Also in the ep with multiple dandys, they got different voice actors for some of the dandys/meows/qts whereas the dub took the cheap route/cut corners and just reused all the same VAs.

And they also change lines here and there, so the humor in the dub seems to be aimed at a lower-age target audience.

The dub isn't horrible, but it's no Cowboy Bebop dub.
>>
>>110758413
I disagree.
>>
>>110753307

Wait, seriously? Well I guess I'm not surprised though.
>>
>>110758677

was I the only one that thought that was great?
>>
>>110758839
Yes.
>>
>>110758794
I may like some of the actual voices better but the dub has so much more flavor.

And as someone who knows Japanese, I can tell that the subtitles actually just steal from the dub a lot. The subtitles try to add as much flavor as possible, but the original lines, if you can understand them, are often just really dull and regular.

>>110758885
I know some Japanese as well. I agree the subs add things to it, but the dub also deviates from the original here and there and while some of the deviations are funny, some of them are dumber and dumberer level humor.

Also not sure what you mean about flavor. The main characters voice is much better in the japanese. QTs voice is much better in the dub, but when the main character is that much worse in the dub its unwatchable imo.

They did the same thing with Kamina in the GL dub. The guy just reads his lines with no intonation/inflection/accent at all.

The fundamental problem is that at least in Japan seiyuus usually train or go to school for this stuff. In America, you became a VA because you failed to make it in hollywood and you dont want to do porn. Japanese VA can be bad as well (SAO II I'm looking at you) but at least there is usually an attempt to act. So many American dubs are bored VAs literally just reading their lines outloud.

>>110744385
maybe in the very last episode. I know Dandy is a very episodic show but I thought we would at least get one episode about the Gogol Empire already

I'd rather have less pleasing voices than boring lines. Most of the Japanese dialog sounds close to stock phrases that you'd find in a Japanese textbook, but most people don't seem to realize this because the subtitles borrow from the dub a lot without translating literally.
>>
>>110759449
I disagree that the dialogue in the original is that bad. It's not poetic by anymeans, but it's about what you'd expect for anime. It's not like the dub does this any better (for example, the D-N-A...Dandy sequence in the multi-dandy episode).

That was Namikawa Daisuke, right? who played the fish

I really liked how chill was Dandy throughout the episode.
