When we reviewed Space Dandy early last year, we knew we had discovered something very special. It had a brilliant storyline, characters and shock...was actually hilarious. Well we have been anxiously awaiting Season Two and it is finally here. This season expands the universe and we get to know the characters a bit more as they are developed and ready to go. The series picks up immediately where season one ended. As we know, there's a Dandy in every universe, and Space Dandy is about to meet them all! He just needs to pull the nearest Cosmic String, and he'll find himself face-to-face with himself. After another failed attempt from Dandy to deceive her, Scarlet suggests to him that he and his friends look for another career. While discussing the matter, Dandy pulls a strange string sticking out from his hair that drags them to an alternate dimension where they find alternate versions of themselves that seem to be far more skilled alien hunters than they are, including Honey who seemed to idolize skilled hunter version Dandy. They are quickly attacked because they thought that the crew is undiscovered aliens, until the crew managed to get away by pulling a mysterious string on QT. Soon after, they are pulled in another dimension where Dandy is a space trucker and Meow and QT his traveling partners. Following that, the original trio keeps pulling mysterious strings that bring them to several other dimensions, always meeting alternate versions of themselves, until one of the alternate Dandies asks him to bring him and his friends to their own dimension. The original Dandy and his friends return home, but accidentally bring all the other versions of Dandy, QT, and Meow with them. As more alternate selves appear at the Aloha Oe, strange events start occurring in their own dimension. The alternate Dandies, QTs and Meows keep increasing since they're keep pulling the popping out cosmic strings, even the Narrator also had his alternate version of him. Dandy finally try to solve by discussing until it stopped by a gloomy Dandy and his stranger Meow and QT, Dandy decides to fix things by burning the cosmic strings that linked their dimensions, and all incarnations of Dandy, QT, and Meow returned to their own dimensions, except for the gloomy Dandy and his friends who have replaced the original crew in their own dimension. This series is a lot more complex in terms of the environment, we truly get to understand this wacky universe. and their place. During the routine, Brown Meow says that he will be the greatest cat, until then, Meow impatiently tells other Meow that he is not a cat. In the end, the planet was once again saved. Thanks to a nifty, handheld teleportation device, Dandy and Meow get mixed up with a fishy little alien whose planet is teetering on the brink of obliteration!There In Season two we learn more about Space Dandy Himself. in the Season 2 episode "Dandy's Day in Court, Baby", a simple DNA scan revealed that Dandy's body has no DNA whatsoever - instead, his body is made of Pyonium, an extremely rare and godlike particle. It is possibly due to his biological nature that Dandy is the only one who possesses the extremely rare ability to traverse between multiple dimensions and still retain his identity. An example to this is when he tries to fix the Aloha Oe while Dandy and Meow goof off with Mamitas. An example was when he stopped a zombified nurse from biting Dandy and being very concerned about Meow when he was sick. To conclude without giving too much away, this is a very, very entertaining season, making nerdy references to sic fi and even 80s culture. It remains solid and thankfully has not gone off the wall. Thats why we give the series an approval, its unlike anything really coming out of Japan right now. SPECIAL FEATURES
Overall: 4.5/5
