So they've got space warriors (who I assume are like cops) and space pirates (who I guess plunder stuff), and the people who don't do either call themselves... Outlaws. That seems like an ill fitting name.

"Galactic Layline" seems like a misleading name to me.

It sounds like it's supposed to be some hidden line through the galaxy that's a font of enormous space psychic power, but I guess it's actually just "Planet X Marks the Spot"?

i think this is one of those translation issues where the English they went with was picked for style over any actual logical meaning. Sorta like how they said Samus Aran is supposed to be a bounty hunter despite being more like a mercenary.

Nice to have a 90's space anime block to come home to after Saturday night drinkin.

First time they tried to air "HD" Bebop they got about 10 eps in before toonami's run time got cut short and it hadn't been back since.

Having to use your own drug before selling it to someone seems like a really bad business model.

Pissing off a major triad before trying to go solo as a drug dealer is also a bad business model. Asimov is not exactly a smart man.

Kinda weird they went with Captain Dragon becoming Hulk Hogan instead of just calling Jotaro boy or kid.

I wonder if there are there any other 90's space anime Toonami could add/return to the line-up.

That's basically all they ever had on there, unless you want to add OG tenshi in there as something technically involving alien chicks. Which, to be honest, these days is loving tame and bearable compared to Tokyo Ghoul or whatever that has stupid creepy poo poo, and yet has the audacity to think itself as DEEP and SERIOUS. At least Tenshi, even at its most harem, never acted like it was anything else than what it was. It's an honest loser cheesecake show that is somehow hilariously quaint. Or I guess Blue Seed if you want to be depressed? No way in hell they'd be cool enough to do G Gundam again.

As for other 90s space shows, space in general, there is always Irresponsible Captain Taylor. But that might be too 90s space dandy to get the toonami crowd that isn't us watching, unfortunately. And then Google's telling me about Black Heaven, which I think I've only heard about barely, and Infinite Ryvius which just sounds shonen mecha as all hell.

If you want movies, we may have to dip into late 80s stuff too, like Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honneamise, Gunbuster, Macross: Do you remember Minmei?, all the older films and OVAs they put on like Char's Counter Attack, O8 team, War in the Pocket, Endless Waltz (and all the white arab boys go OH HERO~). And am I insane, or was it Toonami or old SciFi networking that showed Armitage 3? gently caress, do I miss when anime was all into cyberpunk.

Oh wait, that's right, Trigun is technically sci-fi. I keep forgetting the space elements of that and just focus on Vash being a klutz.

LAST WEEK

Dragon Ball Super: The tournament is about to begin! Our opponents are Pooh, a robot, a wuss, Frieza, and Matt Mercer!

Dragon Ball Z Kai: Babidi puts the word out for Piccolo, Goten, and Trunks, and Shin wants Gohan to learn a sword.

Stardust Crusaders: Punch a drat shark!

Hunter x Hunter: Hey, gently caress you, bomber. Also bye, Killua.

Lupin III: Pigs and wine and dead ladies.


Samurai Flamenco: Masayoshi is given a bunch of crime fighting gadgets from a stationery company and must fight for his life when a high bounty is placed on him. Then, when acting as police chief for a day and supervising a drug bust, one guy kinda...turns into a gorilla with a guillotine for a stomach, kills a bunch of people, and blows himself up. Then, a cloaked figure calling himself King Torture appears with evil aims.
