Now if a stereotypical anime company did Babylon 5 (why does that name
remind me of the two-hour too long Pat Labor 2 yawn fest I saw yesterday),
you'd get something bizarre: - halfway through, the audience would finally
realize that the Minbari weren't just monks with headpieces. -
Talia
Winters would be a space bimbo that sang idol songs in bad English. -
Garibaldi would grunt a lot. -
Ivonova would be fighting off the wayward
hands of Londo. -
Sinclair would hit someone so hard they literally
exploded. -
The StarFuries would have 8 varieties (fans would argue about
which could beat which); and scenes with them would take up over half of
each episode. -
Missiles will zigzag when shot. -
Psi-corp folk would
sweat a lot and scream when they sensed something. -
There would be the
same about of politics, but it would dominate the story line, yet be
incoherent. -
The Earth wouldn't have a president, but instead a teenage
princess. -
The shadows would rip heads off of people. - It takes just one
person to stop the entire war in the last 5 minutes of the series.
