Was it just me or did that episode rip on End of evangelion?

Brilliant finish to an amazing show.

Dandy's ending was perfect, but to be fair Cowboy Bebop had way more side stories and continuity, there was no way to end it in a satisfactory way. I remember getting killed by Faye's side story reaching no conclusion whatsoever

Faye's story concluded in Hard Luck Women. She couldn't go home again. She was a stray just like the rest of the crew.

When Dandy is shackled up the design on the background is a big Yggdrasil with sephiroths much like the ceiling in Gendo's office/one of the images that floats by in the Evangelion OP. I definitely took it as a direct reference.

I think it's a more direct reference to Full Metal Alchemist. But whatever, obscure western religious symbols are everywhere in anime.

Well, that and using Dandy to power the weapon literally caused a Ragnarok event. Since Dandy survived to the next rebirth it's they're one female human short of 100% compliance.

Toonami posted this on their Tumblr about the prospect of more Dandy:

quote:

We can’t really say, because that question hasn’t been answered definitively. It’s quite possible Dandy will be back as a movie or OVA, less likely that there will be a new series. We hope for more Dandy, though!

Like a Bosh
Really loved this show and will miss it as someone who doesn't really like many animes the western flavor of this show was right up my alley. Been pretty much a huge fan though of anything Watanabe has made. It was really great to see a show where you could tell the artist had fun with it and had full control. I loved that Bea doubled crossed everyone that was halarious watching him drawn all villainous.

My only criticism of it was that the second to last episode was so weak the show really should have tried to stick one of the budget saving episodes earlier in the season. It was jarring how stilted it was compared to the quality we got in almost every other episode of the whole show. Well back to ignoring anime in general I guess again.

To be fair, the second-to-last episode was the first part of a two-parter. Wasn't the last episode actually longer than usual? It's like, almost movie-length, both put together.

Personal Episode Tier List:

1) I Can't Be The Only One, Baby
2) There's Music in Darkness, Baby
3) I'm Never Remembering You, Baby
4) Lovers Are Trendy, Baby
5) Rock 'n' Roll Dandy, Baby

Dandy was the highest grossing views aside from AoT. Problem is revenue for bones was not a great.

An older post but does that matter since it was bankrolled by Cartoon Network? If it made them a significant enough profit they could always fund more (or a new show).

Is there a legit place to download the soundtrack? Sure it looks sketchy, but just because it's a torrent doesn't mean anything. Tons of legit stuff go through torrents.

Could just be terrible rips from the show.

The torrent is the real deal. The album was supposedly dropped the 8th (today) but I haven't found anywhere to buy it locally.

Only problem with the album is that it doesn't have the full English version of Lonely Nights. Also I was looking through every song on the thing looking for the giant QT song and it turned out to be the last one, I Should Be...

Also, the full version of Word Pack is great.
