This episode was amazing, I love the main characters and I love the action and the fight scenes and the space western style of this show.
This should be episode 1
This is so fun :laughing: and great OST music. :notes:
2.Stray Dog Strut (in case the order changes again)
The show alternates between dark subjects and stupidly funny situations. And so this episode is like a twin to the first one, basically following the same pattern, but on the other side of the coin.
Introducing Ein as the new crewmember.
Episode 2
(Episodes all out of order)
Shopkeeper: "Hey, bro, you can buy anything here on Mars."
Man: "Hey, wait, you need to pay!"
Abdul Hakim: "I'll pay when I am rich."
Man: "You can't be serious."Spike: "I'm gonna salt you and eat you, damn it."
Chapter 1: Asteroid Blues
With a soundtrack that contrast so big with its setting i was expecting something jarring or uplifting, but instead there's a poeticism and melancholy so persistent in these characters, a love for the little gestures that they share and an exploration of how big the landscapes are in compatison to how fragile the people surrounding them are.
I was expecting so little, but right now I'm in awe.

The difference between a more mature anime with those less mature is the way they portray their villains. I love the way they portray Asimov's girlfriend as a person with hope and desire to get a better life, shown simply through a short, humane conversation between her and Spike. At the same time, it shows death and violence only the most necessary: despite a lot of shootouts, you can count the casualties, even among the goons - most who survive are saved by cartoony knockouts/running away - making death has more impact when it does happen.
Other than that, this episode has slick animation especially on the action, and the plot moves tight, establishing our main characters rather quickly. The ending also defines this show right from the start: a bittersweet, tragic life of those who has to deal with the underworld.
Great pilot.
