Space Dandy (スペース☆ダンディ)

I've completely forgot to explain,

but in this universe, there are two powers at war with each other,

the Gopol Empire and the Jaicro Empire.

And now, the Jaicro Empire

is finally able to operate their legendary giant weapon successfully.

A.L.E.

Legendary Giant Weapon

No way... They've gotten that A.L.E. to work?

I can't believe it.

But we won't lose to them.

Admiral Perry, are you thinking of using this C.O.R.E.?

C.O.R.E.

Final Destruction Weapon

Please wait

The Pyonium control of this C.O.R.E. is not yet complete!

If you start it up now, it will be extremely dangerous.

I will not allow those guys to get ahead of our Gogol Empire.

Wh-What?!

It was too soon...

What a waste.

And so, that large amount of energy

was scattered to the far reaches of the universe.

Doko kara kita ka nante wakaranai hodo no hobi de

These days, I don't know where I've come from

Kono tokoro koi no shuukan wasureta hisashiburi da ne

I've forgotten the ways of love 'cause it's been a while

Warera ni totte jinsei wa waga mi gofun hansai shite

For us, life is five minutes' introspection

Chougouin na kimi jueru hazuseba

You're real pushy, but when your jewel is taken away,

sabishige na sono bibou

your beauty is touched by sadness

Tama niwa abare na shararura to namida tobashite

Sometimes sending tears flying with a wild sha-la-lu-la

Nagareru hoshi mite tanjun da

Looking at the shooting stars, it's simple

Mina onaji ningen da

We're all human

Viva namida kobore ochite yukeba ii jan

Viva tears, it's okay for them to overflow, baby

Muda ja nai

They're not wasted

Tomaranai ima no kimi ga suki

Can't stop, I love you like this

Namida namida sou nan da

Tears, tears, that's right

Sono namida boku ni yudanete kurenai ka

Those tears, will you leave them to me?

Nana korobi ya oki

When you fail, get right back up again

Tomo ni yuku! Mata saikou tte kikasete

Let's go together! Tell me "This is the best" again

Namida namida zai jien!

Tears, tears, goodbye!

We haven't caught any aliens recently.

Well, I'll try harder starting tomorrow.

Yeah, I'll try harder starting tomorrow, too.

What? What?

Hm?

Something's strange.

Hey, what happened?

Hm, I can't take care of this myself.

We'll have to take it to a factory to get it fixed.

What's the closest planet?

Let's see...

Betelgeuse.

I've heard that name before somewhere.

That something geuse.

Betelgeuse. Look, over there.

It's actually the little one right next to it.

It's your home planet, isn't it, Meow?

There's no reason to go to my planet, is there?

What, you don't want to go?

Of course not.

It can't be helped. Let's go!

Didn't I just say I didn't want to go?!

Idiot, don't you know the things we don't want are the things that happen?

We don't have to pay for a hotel, and you can visit your parents.

We can kill two birds with one stone.

All right, let's go

I said, I don't want to go!

Let's go to Meow's house!

Man...!

There's Always Tomorrow, Baby

There's Always Tomorrow, Baby

What are you doing?

What's all the noise?

Oh, Mew?

Everyone, Mew's back!

You should've told me you were coming home.

That's all we have, I'm sorry.

You're "Mew"?

My full name's Me#$%*, so it's like the short version.

It seems you've been taking care of my son.

I'm Mew's mother.

Oh right, Mew. Do you want to show them that?

That thing you won a prize for in elementary school.

You don't have to bring that out.

Um, who are they...?

Oh, they're my brothers.

I'm home.

W-Welcome home.

Oh, you came home.

Hello, nice to meet you.

My name is—

Oh no!

Do we have enough blankets?

You all are staying for a while, right?

Uh, yes, until our spaceship is fixed.

Everyone—

There's nothing on this planet, but please make yourselves at home.

Man, it's just as I left it.

Why did you leave this planet, anyway?

Why...?

There's nothing on this planet but a Jal-Mart.

Anyway—

Huh?!

Science, 8 points.

Wow, you're dumb!

Hey, stop looking through all my stuff!

Tuesday, July 8th

Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!

Poo poo, pee pee, poo poo, pee pee...

Hey.

Oh, good morning, Mr. Dandy.

Mom, I need money for a reference book.

I gave you money yesterday.

That was for my train pass.

Then you need to come have earlier.

Today is the start of the swimming season.

Oh, thank you, Q!

Don't worry about it. I like cleaning.

I haven't slept that well in ages.

Wait, bro! Wait!

What are we doing today?

First, let's see how the Aloha Oe is doing.

The part we need to replace won't be here until tomorrow,

so I can't fix to today, either.

Damn it...

I can't go to Boobies until tomorrow?

It can't be helped.

There really isn't anything on this planet, though, huh?

Oh, is that Meow's dad?

Oh.

This is...

Screw Industry

That's our factory.

We have been metalworkers for generations.

We make a part that's probably used for some kind of appliance.

That's kind of vague.

I'm the first-born son, so I'm supposed to take over, but...

Why don't you just do it?

But that means I'd have to live on this backwoods planet for the rest of my life.

Is that you, Mew?

K-Katie?

Oh wow, it's been so long!

Oh, does that mean...?

Yeah, I work here.

No way, really?

What about you, Mew? What do you do for a living?

U-Um... I'm a, you know, hunter-type.

One of those guys who captures rare aliens?

Oh yeah, that, that!

That's amazing!

Hey, the sign out front wasn't on.

Oh. Talk to you later.

Someone you know?

She was the most popular girl in school.
