It's been about...three years since my last watch of this (which was also my first time seeing it uncut).

 

[Xe4]

Yeeees! Best OP of the night right here!!!

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Nostalgic as hell

Best opening

[B-Dubs]

That's right, the space ships have giant robot arms they use to melee fight each other with.


Wait, this was based on a manga?

 

[Shard]

Also since this is modern Toonami we get the OP.

 

[Strike]

OP takes me back already.

 

[SigmasonicX]

I find the subtitle "Future Hero Next Generation" hilarious. You can see it inside the O.

 

[blitzwolf215]

Full Outlaw Star theme!

 

[Morlas]

Gene is so overdesigned...but still so cool somehow

 

[Mik317]

this show aged like fine wine...jesus chirst

 

[Kaizer]

I remember briefly watching Outlaw Star on Toonami back in the day & I liked the brief bit of it I saw so much, that I made a fanfiction comic of it for a 3rd Grade Book Report that also mixed Tenchi Muyo in lol

 

[ckohler]

This OP is dope!

 

[Zonic]

I remember my friend who I borrowed the DVD of this from was in love with the OP.

.....I can sort of see why now.

 

[RampagingSoul]

OP is just pure hype!

 

[TheOGB]

Space....

 

[PR_rambo]

90s anime superiority fam

Manga was indeed first in its case, yes.

 

[Line_HTX]

Sunrise 1998 was definitely the best year.

 

[Mizerman]

The OP is awesome as always.

 

[Xe4]

this show aged like fine wine...jesus chirst

Don't worry, there are some episodes in the middle which look... rough.
But some episodes look fucking insane even by today standards.

 

[SparksterMeta0]

Dat music video...

 

[Morlas]

A boy has the right to dream...

 

[cntr]

That's right, the space ships have giant robot arms they use to melee fight each other with.

......

I love this show already.

Space is the place!

Yo, that title card sound was amazing.

 

[Shard]

For the sake of reference this was the original Toonami OP for Outlaw Star. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skJlNAHDSYc

 

[ramoisdead]

Yes! They played the JP opening. I don't think they ever played that on US airwaves.

[Imperial Bishop]

Old Not-Eggman

 

[Schadenfreude]

I feel like Frenchie in Tokyo Ghoul right about now. This 90s anime nostalgia is euphoric.

 

[Strike]

Pirates!

 

[SigmasonicX]

Manga was indeed first in its case, yes.

I heard the manga was actually pretty bad. Anyone know for sure?

 

[Line_HTX]

You don't fuck with Hot Ice Hilda.

 

[Morlas]

This show has a really classic look. Still looks really good

 

[Xe4]

<3 Hot-Ice!
Best character on the show hands down.

 

[cntr]

I love these designs, holy shit.

...yes, I'm going to love this show.

 

[B-Dubs]

......

I love this show already.

Space is the place!

Yo, that title card sound was amazing.

The MC also has a gun that shoots bullets that cast magic spells.

 

[Dr. Chaotix]

I have no idea what's going on.

Unable to return fire.

Unable to return fire.

Unable to return fire.

 

[Mik317]

these are some neat spaceship designs

 

[Shard]

Unlike Cowboy Bebop I am not utterly sick of the sight of this series Outlaw Star.

 

[Man God]

Emo.

 

[TheOGB]

Bitch you THOUGHT

 

[Schadenfreude]

I wouldn't mind the latter half of the block being the classic anime block. Gimme more after this, Toonami. I'll eat it up.

 

[RampagingSoul]

these are some neat spaceship designs

They definitely are.

 

[Morlas]

that woman is a badass

 

[Korigama]

I heard the manga was actually pretty bad. Anyone know for sure?

No idea (never read it myself).

 

[cntr]

The MC also has a gun that shoots bullets that cast magic spells.

Wait, this is that show?

Hell yeah.

HOLY SHIT THEY HAVE SPACE PROPELLERS, I LOVE IT.

oh my god they even have industry worlds, yesssssss

 

[Doctor Decimate]

"i'm his son"

 

[ramoisdead]

I love that gunshot stinger transition to another scene this show is known for.

 

[Line_HTX]

What a weird planet name.
