A dandy in space high school.

They already did that, it's called 'every episode of Kamen Rider Fourze'.

Hi this episode had a time loop because if you tip an 8 on its side it looks like the infinity symbol ∞ and not as a homage to a cartoon for people who are still depressed over how lame their high school experience was even though they're in their 20s.

Look pal, this anime pays homage to lots of other animes that came before it, but not that one, because I don't think it was good.

It's a small enough thing, but I really liked the anachronistic incidental junk Meow had in his room. Between the cassettes, the radio and the countach poster, it was like a time capsule from the early eighties.


This excites me more than it really ought to.

It's not that small of a thing, the entire series is an anachronism from the 80s.

Space Dandy just got real.

I was reading the latest issue of Genshiken when I noticed the author's comment memorializing Mr. Nagai Ichirou who recently passed away.

The name wasn't familiar, so I looked him up on Wikipedia.

It turns out that the Ramen Shop Man in episode 2 was the final performance for this VA. Mr. Nagai passed away on January 27, 2014 of this year.

Those tears. Those parting words at the Ramen Shop in the alternate dimension. I think Mr. Nagai did actually tear up saying those words, and I think Meow and Dandy's VAs did too.

poo poo's real out there, guys.

Hej min vän, hur står det till?
I liked the visual style of this one, and there were some really nice little character moments, like Meow's sympathies for the book (especially in reference to the previous episode).

The gag of Dandy drawing the boobs on the ticket becoming the solution to Dr. Gel's formula was pretty funny.

It wasn't full of laugh-out-loud gags, but it was able to use its style and story to be an overall entertaining episode.

This episode was a nice contrast to the earlier episode on the plant world. That one was a psychedelic kaleidoscope, this one was a visual treat of muted colors and greys.

While they ARE making a QT figure, that is in fact a life-sized model at a booth at AnimeJapan.

Best episode in a while. Drowning in the introspection he couldn't even spell, indeed.

Did Meow seem weirdly proportioned this episode? It felt like he was suddenly the same scale as Dandy.

Yeah, I noticed he seemed kind of off this episode, too. Wider and maybe bit chubbier looking, compared to previous episodes.

So it looks like next week's episode is going to raise some new questions about QT's gender, or lack thereof.

Also that entire sequence with the Chameleonian disguising itself as an unidentified old man and the ridiculous amount of time it took Dandy and Co to notice was hilarious.
