Once Tuck have said: "Make her more robotic!" This is actual for this image, I think: Jenny and Vega must be more robotic. And Vexus has lost her macabre charm.
I consider myself an anime fan and even I can't tell when things are parodies or not sometimes. Or rather how much of things are parodies. I wonder if we'd been watching whatever was on Japanese TV at the time we'd think the constant mutating into different things was a joke or if it's really just dumb. Given some of the other stuff happening (Hawaiian shirt Foot clan), either way is possible.
The Show was not a parody but more of an homage to the style of Max Fleishcer, oneo fhte cartoon poineers of the film world in the 1930's.
The stories are SCI FI/ fantasy as a self aware AI like Jenny is not possible in todays technology. But is something to be wished for and given the suspension of disbeief, is a fun character with the added twist of teenage angst.
Ths show sould have run more than 3 seasons and Viacom dropped the ball in merchandising the show and its unique characters. I would have bought a Jennny Doll.

ReplyDeleteBut other characters seems pretty good!
I must disagree!
ReplyDeleteJenny is a wonderful mix of Girl and Machine and brad and Tuck and even sheldon look more like the real guys they are.
Vexxus could look menacing in a ball gown!
A cuter version of zVega and a more realistic Harmony and esp Misty make it a complete and even better show.
I wonder if they could get a license from Viacom and produce a MLaaTR anime!
What a full circle!
