Interesting choices but im one of the people who liked the individual episodes but didn’t like the overall arc ……

like the first 3 episodes …. or the one where a weird fungus takes over the ship ….

Seems its gonna focus on the part I didn’t care… for the gangster part…

no one else seen this ?

I’ve seen the anime. Knew nothing about the live action until I saw this thread. Can’t say I’m excited about this. Meh.

Didn’t super like the anime, not super excited about this either.

Vaguely curious who they’ll find for Ed.

Filming has a multi-month delay because of a knee-bop.

Well, this certainly supports the “he’s way too old to play this character” argument that has been flying around since he was cast.

Loved the anime, one of the all-time greats, kind of dubious about this latest venture, but will give it a watch anyway.

I do think it could be a great show, but I really find the casting of Cho very odd.
