Bodacious space pirates and japan post tsunami

Bodacious space pirates is a japanese anime thing [once manga] and is a hoot to watch in a camp way.  Mini skirts in space and whatever.

There are a number of such shows that may reflect Japans mood  from recent disaster perhaps [some pessimistic] but what is there under the entertainment is a long term view which makes western ideals seem very inward looking.

Don’t expect sleaze, once you look beyond you will see what I am on about.
