A Great Blend

I first watched Outlaw Star back in the day on Toonami, and later saw a few episodes of the uncut version on DVD at a friend's house. I was very glad to find it here. While I've heard it wasn't very popular in Japan, and over here Cowboy Bebop was much more popular, I actually like it more than Cowboy Beebop, in terms of style of entertainment I'm looking for. Outlaw Star has surprising depth and design quality to the universe it takes place in, and while many of the characters have heavily used tropes in their designs, each has their own unique twists that make them highly memorable characters. If you like space combat, magic-guns, sci-fi, space pirates, shapeshifting cat-girls, cute android girls, awesome samurai girls, or the idea of grappling spaceships, or simply want an entertaining anime with a good mix of action, humor, and drama, and lots of badass characters, this show is for you!
