Musekinin Galaxy Tylor

[Stark700]

A new short television anime adaptation of Hitoshi Yoshioka's Uchū Ichi no Musekinin Otoko (The Most Irresponsible Man in Space) novels have been green-lit. The new anime is titled Musekinin Galaxy Tylor (Irresponsible Galaxy Tylor), and will premiere on AT-X, TV Saitama, tvk, Sun TV, Nico Nico Video, and KBS Kyushu on July 11. The series is the first television anime adaptation of the novels in 24 years since 1993's The Irresponsible Captain Tylor.

Plot Summary/Premise

Spoiler:

The new story centers on Banjo Ueki Tylor, and is set "beyond the distant future, in the even more distant future." It is long after the United Planets has declined, and the Empire has been destroyed. People have scattered all over the galaxy and lead peaceful lives on various planets. Banjo Tylor works in garbage disposal above the atmosphere of one of these planets, when he comes across a robot ship and finds a girl frozen in ice within. Suddenly, forces that are after the girl begin to activate all throughout the galaxy, as it is revealed that the girl is actually Goza the 168th, the harbinger of the galaxy's doom. Banjo and Goza set out on a journey to revive the United Planets, but nothing goes as planned.

I see no one has commented on this, and for good reason.

This first episode was horrible =01. Now I remember starting Tylor with the OVA series(never touched the TV series, aside from a episode or two on some international channel in the late 90s), and while I surely didn't really know what was going on, the depth of the story was oozing out from its corners.

Now I know you're not going to fit much in a less-than-3 minute episode, but everything was just BAD. The robot's voice and Tylor's voice was so similar, I had a hard time distinguishing who was talking when the scene wasn't focused on the talking char, and Tylor's voice in general sounds wayy too feminine. QUALITY was everywhere. They started with both the robot and Tylor in front of the ship/wormhole, then suddenly, they aren't, and have to run back to it? The running-to-the-ship/wormhole part was ATROCIOUS; there're no banjo sounds despite it appearing that he's strumming it, and there is sound of more steps than he's actually running >=01.

Hell, I can't even tell what happened at the end, when the ship-thingy popped from the wormhole and the robot jumped out. How did he get in there? What did he do? I know I'm on the lower end of the intelligence scale, but man this just totally flew over my head and made little sense how it was shown.

I loved Tylor. But this? And what did they do to poor Azalyn?

In case people were wondering whether it got better.... it doesn't.
Ep 5 was pretty much all done with still-sliding images, and had absolutely no bearing on the story(or so I believe, since I jumped from ep 1). Like a 3 min anime can't get any cheaper =02.
