Assuming this isn't some fan thing, this gives me more hope for the show than any of the material leading up until now. Not only are they very carefully trying to match the style, but judging from the clips in the opening it also looks like they're going to be covering fan favorite episodes and characters

Where's Ed?

Ed's not in the show, at least for now. I don't think an official statement has been made one way or another, but most people assume that they're either looking to avoid the issue of Ed being androgynous entirely or they're saving her
for season two because she doesn't appear until episode 9.

All I needed to hear was the opening notes to Tank!. There are some things you don't change and that was one of them.

I'm trying not to get too excited, because you could easily make the case that the only reason it looks good is because it's basically a shot for shot recreation of the original opening. In fact, I'd argue the worst looking parts for the ones where they focus on the actual main cast because it kind of does look like fan cosplay.

Either way, it was very smart of them to intentionally lean in on what the fan base liked. I'm sure there are some people out there losing their mind because pierrot le fou is in the opening, for example.

Looks great. The only thing about it that bugs me is that it felt like everything was in slow motion for some reason. Everything was synched up to the music better in the original opening. Thats just a minor nitpick though. Im looking forward to it

After actually watching it, I'm trying to keep my expectations in check because I actually loved it. This was a series that could work in live-action. Doesn't mean that it would work.

It looks kinda goofy to see them move around live action while the background is animated. But otherwise looks fine >_> I recognized a lot of the episode references in it lol

@TheOnionKnight what do you think? I am surprised I like it. I still dont have much faith for the show proper, but as a first look this actually has my stamp of approval, and I was ready to hate it.

Looks like something a bunch of amateur cosplayers created (granted, it would be high quality for amateurs). They didn't even bother matching up the music with the intro after about 20 seconds into it.

Only critique I have is why they got Faye playing with knives?

She's definitely a gun slinger, no doubt about it.

John Cho looks so old

Heh, Cho is older than Mustafa Shakir who is playing Jet. I always imagined Jet being like 10 years older than Spike.

Cho is far too old to be Spike, and I love Cho. Faye also looks lame.

Surprised that Jet looks the best though.

Not surprising when Faye's costume doesn't even look like Faye and Spike's actor seems like he is too old for the role.

Gotta compliment the commitment to the opening. Doesn't mean I ever feel good about live action anime anythings. Because they never turn out good.

Pretty sure canonically Jet is 10 years older than Spike. Spike is supposed to be 26-28 and Jet in his mid-30s iirc.

-Vicious looks dumb af lol
-Jet looks pretty good post production tbh. Better than those promo shots
-I cant get a clear look at the "Shucks Howdy" bounty hunter show people. I hope the girl is hot enough
-a lot of the one off characters actually look pretty good

It is really difficult to have a white haired anime character not look like an old man in real life.
