    Coyote Ragtime Show

    This seems like a cool show, maybe a Cowboy Bebop/Solty Rei mixture or something.

    First episode released by gg:
    http://ggkthx.org/torrents/CRS01.torrent

    "The war has continued on the planet, Grazeland. Because the Earth Federation Governent is afraid the war might leap to other planets, they decided to destroy the Graceland by photon bombs. There are only 7 days left until the time limit. However, there is an inheritance of the Pirate King, Blues, somewhere in this planet."

    I have to agree, the first episode was very nice. Plenty of action, enough of the story to generate interest but not overwhelming, and the charaters were well done also. I can't wait for episode 2.

    Everything Apraxhren said. This series seems like it will be quite interesting. I have a feeling we might get to see the story from several different points of view equally instead of just following the main charachter around, which would be very entertaining, but it could be that I'm just prjecting the open endedness of the first episode too far. Can't wait to see more.

    Episode 2:

    I'll give this series a try after I finish catching up to Utawarerumono.

    Cool - another great anime series starting, looks like a few things are begining to take over from the many other cool series which ended in the last while.

    Just watched the first two episodes, I think Bud's prediction of similarities to Bebop is fair accurate (although not seeming much like Solty Rei yet, anyway).

    Basic overview of this would be, corrupt politicians, corrupt police, guild of criminals, and then a few renegade good cops, and 'Coyotes' (suppose closest could compare them to be would be Black Lagoon-style good guys...).

    Hard to say this early on how it will develop, but looks like a fun/entertaining series - lots of guns 'n drink.

    first episode was pretty interesting. Getting a little tired of seeing super moe cute girls placed in the role of heartless killing machines though... The investigator and the policewoman seem to be tolerable characters, although I'm more interested in the criminals.

    I still need to watch the second episode but I really don't know what people are comparing this show to Bebop for. No bounty hunters, main character is a friggin federal agent and I've yet to see anything involving martial arts or dog-fight space combat yet. Not to mention the difference in the sound track.

    Again though, judging all this from the first episode is a little much. I like the "space outlaw" genres quite a bit though, and will casually pick this show up.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Episode 2 was a fairly nice episode, at first Super Soul seemed fairly stupid and cliché and he still may be but I am starting to enjoy his character. The ED was great in terms of the animation or lack of; it may be my favorite part so far.

    @Masamuneehs: I think the comparisons to Cowboy Bebop are more about the feel of the anime. They both exist in a virtually lawless world with corrupt governments/police. That is about all they share but they feel similar in the way they approach the story. I have heard people compare the plot to a Lupin the third like, it is almost as if they took Lupin the third and put it in the Cowboy Bebop world. Either way this looks to be a really entertaining anime.

    got to episode 3 and 4. Swamp is the token priest gunslinger AND token black guy... but man his singing voice really doesn't fit the character at all.

    I've grown to like Mister some. At first his vague way of talking about things (or is that gg fansubs?) got me a little annoyed, but some of his lines are pretty good. I love the Central Bank being referred to as a 'mountain', not just a tresure but also a serious obstacle to be conquered.

    the action in this show is nice, but man is it some foowee sometimes! Two guys with pistols versus armored machine gun wielding troops backed up with helicopters... I prefer Black Lagoon or Bebop's gunfights alot more, but Ragtime does offer some nice animation.

    I fucking suck at puzzles like that Central Bank one D'bony is the Genma-looking plot device whizkid, but man tell me you can't like someone named D-to-the-Bony!

    this show is automatically cool because they referenced the best song ever, Hotel California. gg's comment on it made me lol.

    no need to go through the handprint identification code, just go through the grate in the wall... "epitome of financial security"? How would that fat bastard president ever even make it through the ball? He doesn't even have cameras in his office.

    I do like this show, but early comparison to Bebop and the number of other good shows out there now really leave this one lagging. It has potential, but it seems to fall into little pitfalls in places it should really shine... In all honesty I probably won't be watching this show very avidly.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Are the 12 sisters robots or what? In ep.3 they're worried about getting their clothes dirty and now they're eating peaches. It's still a great show, just a lil' confusing.

    I'm pretty sure they're all androids as the captured one is for sure and they all seem to have abnormal strength among other things. This is probably one of the best shows to come out this year, right up there with Utawarerumeno and BlackLagoon for me.
