This is one anime series that does not disappoint. Most viewers would probably love this series because it contains all the aspects that one looks for when judging a film. First of all, there is the plot. The main plot is very easy to understand, and all the pieces of the story fit together quite nicely. The character developement is by far the best accomplishment of this series. Aside from the amusing Captain Tylor himself, all of the other characters are very distinct as well. With characters like Kajiro, the young pilot with a big ego and a fear of girls, to characters like Jason, a phsycotic, chainsaw toating marine, Tylor's crew is the craziest bunch of subordinates in space. The animation is done fairly well along with the arrangement of the many space battles that take place throughout the series. Overall, Tylor has something for everyone. A great buy for anyone who loves clever and creative films.

5.0 out of 5 stars An absolute must have!, June 7, 2001

If ever there was an absolutely brilliant anime...this was it by far! The irresponsible captain tylor is an incredible funny and smart anime. Captain Tylor, a man so complacent he'd give granite a run for his money, has through a unique set of circumstances been given control of the space ship Soyokaze in a time of war. With an enemy that hates him, a crew that hates him, and a command staff that hates him you would come to think his time would be short and you'd be wrong too! This anime is full of wonderful characters with actual personalities like Lt. Yamamoto who struggles with the notion of telling the higher ups that Tylor is a fake, Lt. Commander Yuriko Star who is irritated by everything Tylor does, Kojiro the ensign with a fear of girls, a nurse who's a spy, a marine in a hockey mask, and best of all Tylor who just wanted a free ride...poor guy. Fans of anime or not you'll love all 26 episodes of a truly great anime with a great ending! 5 stars +! Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best, August 17, 2000

By A Customer

I'm a big anime fan, and as of the date of this review Tylor is my newest. I am quite pleased with this series and I would like to say that if you liked Ramna, or even if you didn't you should buy this. It'll have you laughing, and a lot more, as it is very entertaining, and it actually does have a meaning too, it if you watch it. I bought this series without knowing much about it, except a few scattered reviews all of which were good. I've used this method before with Lain and I would have to say with both of these series I have, like Tylor, lucked out. Take my advice and buy it, you won't be disappointed.
