Re: Well I watched the anime for the first time on Netflix thanx to the awfu
[quote name="laudablepuss"]It's a good show, glad you got around to watching it! [quote name="MM"]So much for the only Joss Whedon show I ever liked. Turns out "Firefly" was a blatant copy, even down to the autistic teen girl with superpowers. No disrespect to the cast.[/quote] How is "blatant copy" an appropriate descriptor here? How similar are they, really? Your example doesn't make any sense either. Ed is a trans girl who's really weird and has a gift for hacking. Whatshername is a psychic ninja. Am I forgetting the Cowboy Bebop teen super girl? Also, both ships do odd work and suffer privation. This is such a common trope that when you see it, there's literally no reason to think it's a copy of any specific other example. It could be a copy of the Millennium Falcon before A New Hope.[/quote]
