As this zany space adventure continues, title character Justy Ueki Tylor undergoes something of a transformation, becoming less careless and more appealing: in episodes 8 and 14, he wins over Raalgon android-agent Harumi with his low-key charm. But he's still no poster boy for the United Planets Space Force. The scheming admirals at UPSF Headquarters plot what they hope will be the end of Tylor by downgrading the Soyokaze--the greatest shame a crew can endure. Even the thuggish Marines are upset, but Tylor remains oblivious. Yuriko finds a way for him to challenge the order, which he blows while his crew members consult tealeaves and pluck petals off daisies. Tylor, who attracts trouble the way a magnet attracts iron filings, destroys the fleet of the vengeful Raalgon admiral Donan through sheer dumb luck--and earns an upgrade. The thread of the narrative gets lost in episode 12, when Tylor, Yuriko, Harumi, and Lieutenant Yamamoto find themselves in a strange ghost story involving the last captain of the Soyokaze. The filmmakers never really explain what's going on, although they suggest that Admiral Fuji has been indulging in dirty tricks for a long time. A new threat emerges in episode 14, when the Frazetta-esque Shia-Has decides she will be the one to capture Tylor for the Raalgon empress. Unrated; suitable for ages 12 and up: sexual humor, minor nudity, violence, alcohol and tobacco use. --Charles Solomon

5.0 out of 5 stars The adventures continue!, March 2, 2001

By A Customer

An anime that really can't be compared to any other. Although like Project A-ko in its tongue-in-cheek adherence to the sci-fi genre, Captain Taylor is one of the best anime comedies around. In this DVD (With both sub-titles and dubbing; I prefer the subs) Captain Taylor's adventures go on as he encounters even more strangeness in outer space.
