Every time I'm walking along the actual Houston Street in New York, I hear this song playing in my head. :-)

@gokuxxx88 Most of the stuff nowadays is brainless moe bullshit anyway. In my opinion, the whole anime business peaked in the late nineties...I don't think something like Lain or Cowboy Bebop would perform well these days (in Japan and in general). If there's no extra coat of sugar on it, it just doesn't sell, sad but true.

[gokuxxx88]

@Gamewitzer Yeah. Most good shows and games don't become extremely popular unless they're 90% action and have straight forward plot that has little to no real depth at all. Don't get me wrong I like action. The problem is that too many other things get buried by it. For me all of the factors of a show or game need to be equally balanced in order for me to truly like it.

@gokuxxx88 In retrospect, the cliffhanger at 13 wasn't so bad after all...certainly better than the "WTF just happend" ending in the last episode.

Another one of those anime who were never really that popular in Japan but were well recieved in the west...Cowboy Bebop, Baccano! etc. A shame really.

[gokuxxx88]

@Sprocketman That is correct. The show was doing a sub-par job in japan so the creator was told that it would be reduced to 13 episodes. He then decided to deliberately end the first season on a permanent cliffhanger in the hopes that the show would be picked up for at least another season. A few years later it showed in the USA. It was more popular in the US than it was in japan. Enough people liked it that Cartoon Network decided to help produce the show in order to have the second season.
