Absolutely gorgeous

This episode is probably my favourite Space Dandy Episode.

The art style is gorgeous, the animations are so different, the story line is beautiful and the music is so good.

The whole episode spends a big amount of time on building a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere. Compared to other episodes, there are less pop culture references as far as I can tell.

It's a very chill adventure.

Warning: Spoilers
The animation and art is so bad, it makes the episode feel blank. This has got to be the worst animation and art of all-time. The characters now have dark lines around them and the water looks like earth. I don't even feel that the episode is really going. The waves look too peculiar and stylized. The animation for Dandy in one part was so bad, you couldn't tell how he was feeling. He even looked a bit like a woman.

In this episode, Dandy tries to catch a munagi, an extremely rare alien. After he fell in mud, he encounters an annoying four-year-old named Erssime wearing a mask. She is an alien too. Erssime is way more hyperactive and fearless than Ed from Cowboy Bebop is. She is a dense kid. I think that it's quite off for the series that this whole episode is about fishing but on the other hand, it would've been good. But this episode had too much whim compared to the other episodes to fit the art and animation. I think that the new characters were pretty senseless especially for Space Dandy.

Though, I liked Elderly.

It's like the Adelie episode, I don't like how these kids take up Q.T. and Meow's screen time. Erssime's looks sounds like she was ripped right out of a Miyazaki film.

This episode is not really funny nor is it dramatic. It just has a light style to it and the childish-looking swirl mud which contradicts what this anime was intended to be.

I loved the montage to this episode and the music.
