The Cowboy Bebop Creator’s Misunderstand Masterpiece - SPACE DANDY! | Den of Otaku

In this episode of Den of Otaku, Den of Geek's official anime and Japanese pop culture discussion series, we’re doing a deep dive into Shinichiro Watanabe’s overlooked and underrated, Space Dandy. We begin with a primer on Watanabe's career and the anime that put him on the map and made Space Dandy possible. Den of Otaku unpacks why music is so important to all of Watanabe's works and also touches upon his upcoming Adult Swim series, Lazarus. Den of Otaku's Space Dandy deconstruction examines its unique approach to genre and anthology storytelling, its use of eclectic animation directors and designers, how it made simul-dub history, and what sort of legacy it’s left behind and if audiences have really seen the last of Space Dandy. Plus, a special joint edition of “Release the Hounds” and “The Big 3” looks at other Shinichiro Watanabe classics, Samurai Champloo, Terror in Resonance, and Carole and Tuesday.
