you know a movie about an assassin daughter and a bone monster father would've been nice. who knows, maybe they'll team up. they left the ending pretty vague. the monster was created from untested food and space solar radiation mixing together. anyway, this show is an assassin plot and a space monster plot mashed together. couple of the characters are pretty pointless. and also sawa, the lead girl, of the 1st iteration, gets mentioned. the lead girl of this iteration, is also an assassin, but it's not explained. at least, it would have been fine to somehow show us, the audience, somehow, the lead character,
...
monaka, being associated with sawa.

at first when I read this title, I thought this must be one kind of kinds party trying to find a literal cat. But no, this is actually trying to find a sort of friendly phantom-type of cat. phanom cats are interesting, as they cat shapeshift into humans, they can phase walls and also take over any electrnoic equipment within a radius. a whole bunch would like to destryo a certain japanese bay with a nuke, but get thwarted by the A team of this anime, which is 90% women and only 1 guy somehow suviving. Now the kitty in question is the sympathetic phantom
...
kitty who's also an accomplice to the nuking japanese port plan has a soft spot for the lone guy, who took care of her when she needed it. Anyway, at the end, there was no nuke, the real nuke somewhere else, transported by the actual phantom-cat team and the girl was also saved someone else. LIKE COME ON!!!

intro was fine, i kind of knew she wasn't pregnant. intro of faye valentine pretty nice. eco-terrorist plot pretty fine. i liked how she and her other goons turned into apes also. then 1st confrontation between spike and viscious really good. the ageless boy showed lore of the world. the VT ex-bounty character had an episode or flahsback to her past planned for her, but that wasn't made. good thing that rocco guy died. then after 8 whole episodes, finally the 4 crew is completed, with the edition of ed, who even though copied the buggy software in the ai-run laser firing satelite, that NEVER
...
factored in the again, as I was hoping it would. Also he's a genius hacker, who can hack any ship computer and that's how he forced himself in the crew. We slowly get to know faye's(rip van winkle and swindler romantic partner), jet's(he's the most considerate and honest ex-cop who had his fiance/wife ran out on him with a way-younger guy and had his partner's betrayal cost him his arm, yet he still goes about with a strong code of honour and maintains his contact with coptype buddies), and ed's backstory(his deadbeat dad abandoned him in an orphanage and there loneliness and a thirst for knowledge made him the genius he is today). the alien type episode was really fun and at the end it was ed who just ate it. you'd think it would be a showoff between spike and the mutated alien lobster, but no. Anyway, it also pointed out that, just how badly they manage the ship's storage. i'm thankful to that hermaphrodite for killing that twink siding with Viscious. But then again had it not been him dying by viscious's side, we would't have gotten shin, his twin brother helping spike in the FINAL confrontation. the gate bug planter plot was good. mushroom episode was FUN.in the video tape episode, i NEVER WANTED SPIKE TO DIE BECAUSE OF HIS IMPATIENCE FOR DESTROYING THAT FREAKING ANTIQUE OF A BETAMAX PLAYER. That guy wasn't even reimbursed. he meets his mentor figure that made the swordfish used by spike and then pierot le fou, the exprerimental assassin who almost killed spike and was successful in killing half of police in the solar system. Had it not been for faye, spike would've been a goner. the feng shui girl and cow boy part was SOOO boring. Anyway, that's it. I did find it really weird just peaces off with the dog, away form the bebop after meeting with his father all those years later. BTW, His father is an absolute unit, could've easily taken jet and spike out if he wanted too. Too bad he wasn't a villain. Although i forgot what he was trying to do collecting meteorites in the barren earth field. Lastly, the comatose patient trying to create a cult out of sheer hatred for others was good.

episode 1-yu ominae, an orphaned child, has to defeat many kinds of fanatic people/Americans/Russians wanting to use ancient civilizational mysterious super weapons, like a lense that can focus sun's rays and kill everyone, like an orb that can make the wearer have control over lava flows. In this version, the story takes an episodic turn and potentially adapts more material from the manga. Little by little we also get to know more about yu, the protagonist, wearer of the muscle enhancer armor, how his life was in the orphanage, Now just like the previous version, he has to deal with the sealing of the
...
noah's ark technology. But the way, he get to be in the mission, that's different. In the '90's version, his friend dies, that compels him to go by himself. But in the this version, he was ordered to go. everything in this episode 2 is just the 90's version. Except that awesome chase scene in Turkye doesn't happen. And we get to see Jean's power-up of becoming a lycanthrope whenever he's close to death. One thing for sure Jean and Yu are in such a bromance. episode 3 super classic surviving a curse ridden sentient forest, full of COD zombies and evil molesting tree, to find a cure to aging/for immortality, with a couple unlikely allies, like a merc from a rival organization, and another likely school attending teenage version of lara croft whose also a medium and legal loli. She at the end of adventure was fed lies, after ARCAM retrieved the artifact for themselves. Also did they actually modify the story of Sita getting kidnapped to explain the origin of the curse of sentient of forest. episode 4- yu and sexy brit lieutenant major clementine pair up to deactivate an ancient robot from myth, that the UK gov. wanted to acquire for themselves. After much hassle they deactivate, survive it's self destruction, treat clementine's wounds and yu still makes time to go to her classmate's last sports festival. After that fiasco, the Uk gov. washes it's hands off any artifact retrieving of it's kind for good. P.S. we never know what's he or his classmates care about each other. 5th episode- a crystal skull able to mimic nuclear energy has fallen into the hands of a nazi sympathiser group, but with the help of an insider yu, accomponied by the colleague's daughter, gets back the crystal skull. P.S. that colleague now works as a teacher in the ARCAM-funded school yu studies in. episode 6- in this there's reference to philadelphia experiment, a island that was meant to be a teleportation device, bermuda triangle, yu finally pushed to be a better than idealist person, through his mentor-turned-enemy. before dying his pleaded not to be naive and question ARCAM, if necessary. After that we get a post credits scene, where a rival team have finally sent/planted a mole in yu's school to terminate him. Something we'll hardly get to see in a netflix 2nd season.

this movie has quite a number of surprises, even after being formulaic. first, the battle and fighting sequence proceeds and gets conducted the way it usually does. initially they aren't successful, then in the 2nd bout they are. they succeeded in showing Kuwabara as a more of a useful character. then in the last fight, central fight, they all literally win with the power of friendship, combining all their powers. this combination was nice to see. then the villain needed a finishing blow. canonically i think this side quest should take place in-between chapter dark tournament and chapter black. that way i guess it would
...
be explained how the guy escaped from his seal, as many souls during dark torunament, but it still doesn't make sense. Anyway, plot is, bad guy comes wants to threten the status quo, yada yada yada. And as always our foursome guardians, as usual, have to dedicate their energy to protect the system, to not let home ground lose.

this anime is pretty sad. as in the girl, died in the 1st 2 minutes. her body was controlled by angry ghost demons, which if angered could summon carnivorous slugs. Initially this felt like ghost power infused-yandere girl with carnivorous slug summoning power wanting the boy and being the head of the family for some reason. Also why would a ghost wanna be head of a family. Was it because it wanted to breed with a human to propagate more of it's kind? I think that needs some kind of clarification. also it's so sad the two times she got rape/hijacked by some miscreant boys.
...
F**ng terrible. and 1st time it happened, it was 3 pre-teens, to survive from whom and save her dignity she smased the boy's with a rock. Which was completely justified. I mean what the f** were they doing forcing themselves upon her!!! Anyway, in the end, the lover duo got a heart and head critical hit on the ghost girl/demon mixed creature and ended her finally. lastly we were reminded the girl DID die at the age of 5. this is what matters in horror. nothing but subtexual telling of horrible things.

this story just makes my head spin. first i think it's a past self meets younger self movie, and then it turns to be supposed incest plot line and then very predictably so the guy actually turns out to be her own adopted family's brother. WTH!! two things, I do feel SUPER bad about the family that lost two of their children in a f*** gas leak incident. the very children that they didn't know were getting married in a feudal japanese setting through time slip incident. Any f*** couple would be BEYOND MORTIFIED to learn that they're long lost, thought to be deceased children
...
are not just alive, but also ARE GETTING MARRIED TO EACH OTHER!!! so the parent's of the past they matter, they raised you, BUT what about the couple who gave birth to you, your birth parents, they don't matter??? They just lost their LIVES, then and there. While you two go having fun, your parents, BOTH OF YOUR PARENTS, are wailing in sorrow Also another thing to point out, anyone, I don't care who, I don't care in what time setting, if he or she, was telling anyone, in a joyful manner, that i'm gonna get married, specifically, not much AFTER THEIR OWN SISTER(supposedly, they didn't know) AND VILLAGE GOT BURNT, HE OR SHE SHOULD BE STRANGLED ON SIGHT 'Cause remember the villagers don't know that the guy whose supposed to be protecting them, is of marrying his kind of sister.

this is from maris the chojo, 1980's. It 's about a female alien that wants to have enough financial stability to support her non-supporting parents. She thinks a kidnapping rescue attempt will get enough of a paycheck, but doesn't translate well into reality. So, my personal thought, this whole character of a lonely lady who has to support her family and in that path she meets an old rival could've been awesome. I would've wanted she and her old wrestling rival to team up, maybe even in a romantic way 🤪🤪 to try to start some kind of enterprise. But as it's rumiko takahashi work,
...
there's nothing like that. P.S. It's from a one shot manga. many others like this are called rumic world. I have to see them all and i'll review them all in this post.

I read the manga there too. And there are some key differences: 1. Mizuki, in the manga, doesn't like the baby from the start., 2. ITM, Aunt Izumi isn't featured 90% of the time, unlike in the anime. 3.the plot is the same, except there are some different circumstances through which Mirai and Mizuki gets put through, only common one is the school play where Mirai is involved. 4. From the start, fortunately, the classmates accept the viewpoint that, the baby is Aunt Izumi's baby, who herself isn't present for most the manga. 5. when it's time to give her back, it's more or less
...
emotional probably, not like in the anime, but she was the only one there, and also daisuke was there and she got to know that daisuke would be husband. 6. mirai's future baby handling knick knack bag isn't included. 7. unlike the anime, the parents don't even come back to check on her, much less try to get her back. 8. mirai left for her actual parents on christmas day, just like in the anime. 9. so, if we consider the entirety of the anime and manga as canon, then mizuki herself will have a lil' brother and in the future after mirai, will have a son. so, mirai will have an aunt and a lil' brother. 😁😁 10. unlike in the anime, daisuke's lil' brother isn't shown, and thus his family drama also isn't there. 11. unlike in the anime, she didn't give the whole knick knack bags to mirai's future family. here's a bonus chapter where Mirai in her fourth grade meets her mother of fourth grade and learns the true meaning of caring for babies, as in Mirai's little brother Taichi, SOMEHOW. There are 12 chapters in the manga: summary of it all coming soon..... ch:1- same thing as the anime when Mirai arrives, 2-same as when her friends come over, the friends erika and tha fat one isn't featured here.. 3-mirai in class, which happened way later in the anime, where everyone, mainly with the help of the principal, accepts the baby.4-mirai has to leave her baby to her grandma for a field trip, but she comes back anyway worrying about her baby. she's just as helpful as before, but her friends who were also just as helpful aren't there, so grandma makes an appearance, but her friends don't. 😤😐5-about a scaredy cat boy named jun, 6-confronting some high school gangsters who should've been included, in the anime. 7-just like episode 43, the high school play happens where at the end of the play, she doesn't give the baby back to the person as promised. 8--another field trip and this time mirai is coming with mizuki. where she and daisuke find a treasure pit, with an almost starving man, there before they start feeling hungry, they have to get out. So, when mirai starts crying, everyone hears her cry and finds them, by nightfall. 9--mizuki helps her friend ayumi with her dad'd festival passion.. 10--mirai gets kidnapped by a mother who recently lost her child and is then given back. 11--FINAL mirai goes back, and just like in the anime, she utters her first word. then daisuke cheers her up. 12--epilogue chapter where we see a grownup mirai arguing with her mother about her own lil' brother Taichi. there somehow elementary mizuki gives the knick knack bags to grownup mirai.
