Bubbleblabber’s Definitive Top Ten International Animated Series of 2019
4) Cannon Busters
What truly stuck out to me about Cannon Busters was its writing — it hardly resembles anything I’ve seen recently in an anime. The dialogue and comedic pacing truthfully have more in common with western animation than anime. This makes sense when you find out that the creator of the show and the author of the original Cannon Busters graphic novel, as well as the show’s writer, are American. And as a result, we get a natural sounding dub. This dichotomy creates combines a familiar vernacular with a beloved art style, which to me seems indicative of how diverse the anime industry is becoming.
There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
