The World Inferno posted:The comparison is unavoidable given it's a remake, but I think his point is more the spirit of the choreography. The way he's moving in the anime conveys a lot – that he's toying with the guy and as he wrote, reckless. The action in the show doesn't convey that anywhere near as well, which is a shame. I'm mean, I think it's okay given the different ages in the characters? In the anime Spike is young and in this he's not. Men who were reckless at 27 usually aren't when they are 49. That's how they survived so long. Seen three episodes so far and am loving it.

Xealot posted:They don't totally excise economic anxiety. The show is still pretty explicit about how almost everyone (save a small sliver of the hyper-rich) struggles to get by, and almost no one lives comfortably. Jet still barely keeps the Bebop flying, and scrounges for used parts because he can't buy anything new. Spike is still perpetually broke, though Faye's story is different (she's implied to have come from some money, to have had some kind of inheritance or trust to her name that was conned out of her, vs. the system simply being ravenous and corrupt.) And I thought the "we can't afford the taxes on a dog!" line was pretty striking show of economic anxiety from a mom who is clearly upper middle class.
