Outlaw Star isn't very popular.It also isn't very good. Besides the girl in the box, there's nothing in common. Their characters are vastly different than Joss'. I fail to see the likenesses that would piss said fan off. Do you want to trademark space or something?
Besides Firefly is far more interesting.
[Outlaw Star fans accuse every show set in space of ripping their show off. See Cowboy Bebop. They always say that's a rip off of Outlaw Star. Again, I don't see how. ] Futhermore Gene Starwind couldn't lace Mal's boots. Animated or not, chief.

Woah, Setsuna!
So FF 'borrowed' (heavily) (very heavily) from Anime. The show and movie can still stand on their own if you just accept the heavy anime influence in it and enjoy it for what it is. I was also livid to see Anime shows ripped off so readily at first, but the FF writers aren't the only ones ripping other Asian media. Most of Tarantino's films are influenced by 70's 'sploitation flicks and Hong Kong cinema, but that doesn't make Kill Bill a bad movie. Of course, Quentin always says up front that he borrows from HK cinema, especially for the character of the bride.
Just because the writers don't acknowledge their debt to Anime doesn't mean the show and movie are reprehensible. I'd rather watch a show that rips off Bebop and Outlaw than one that rips off the Jessica Simpson Variety Hour!

Its amazing how many people don't read an entire thread before posting...
Let me just clear this up for everyone. Stop responding, I wrote that probably two years ago, I think. I've grown up, I no longer care! So I'm really sorry, alright? I should try and delete this post...
I don't care, stop replying, have your Firefly show, just leave me out of it! ><;;

Sorry about that Setsuna. Looks like this MissyG troll revived this due to lack of anything better to do.
Although you can not delete this thread, you can click off the "Notify me when someone responds to my comment" box so that you stop getting emails in regards to this thread.
MissyG is definitely not a Firefly fan. It seems like you may not be as well.

MissyG has only logged on and posted on this thread, and has not been back since 10/26. Seems like she does not have much in the way of a life, no?
