Space Dandy

An alien hunter and his mismatched crew cross the galaxy seeking undiscovered species, turning bounty work into an episodic science-fiction comedy.

Synopsis
The Anime Lad

Dandy searches the galaxy for alien species nobody has registered before, hoping each discovery will earn a reward. He travels with QT, a robot whose assistance has limits, and Meow, an alien with comparable limits. Their work produces new planets more reliably than income. The crew continues operating despite limited evidence of a plan.

Super Eyepatch Fox

Dandy hunts undiscovered aliens for cash. QT provides mechanical support. Meow contributes local confusion. Their ship reaches new planets and unfamiliar inhabitants while competing hunters chase the same rewards. Find the species first. Secure proof. Avoid preventable disaster. The crew treats each failure as preparation for another attempt.

Gigguku

Space Dandy gives an alien hunter, a robot, and a dim alien an entire galaxy to search for undiscovered species. Every new planet can introduce another bizarre inhabitant or comic disaster. Dandy's confidence stays enormous regardless of the evidence, while QT and Meow ensure that no straightforward bounty remains straightforward for long!

Father's Basement

Dandy's shallow confidence can become exhausting before it settles into the joke. The alien-hunting job gives the series enough structure to survive him. Each undiscovered species promises money, each planet offers another complication, and his companions are poorly equipped to compensate for his judgment. Professional competence was never part of the pitch.

The story of the anime revolves around Dandy, an alien-hunter. His job is to seek out new aliens never seen before, and receives a reward whenever he finds a new species.

What defines it

A dazzling, experimental episodic sci-fi comedy from Shinichiro Watanabe. Stylish and inventive.
