\"BodaciousI’ve been watching a lot of Anime this past year; partly it was due to a renewed interest from a co-worker. \u00a0And partly because I needed something new to watch. \u00a0Right now I’m watching Bodacious Space Pirates<\/a>…<\/p>\n

A\u00a0side note, first. \u00a0I try to stay away from “trendy” anime shows. \u00a0Or ones that tend to be over-hyped. \u00a0I avoid the whole “mecha” genre as a rule of thumb. \u00a0I don’t classify myself as an otaku. \u00a0And if I’ve seen more cos-play characters from one particular anime at a comic convention, I tend to avoid it as being over-hyped… Although, I do like\/seen Trigun and I’ve known about it for over 10 years now; so it’s one of my few exceptions.<\/p>\n

What I like about BSP so far is the Firefly-like narrative. \u00a0I won’t bore you with a review just yet, since I’m only about 10 episodes in, but so far I like it. \u00a0I like the artwork and spaceship designs, although the story drags a bit. \u00a0More to come later…<\/p>\n
