I watched a lot of anime this past year, in 2014! When I take a look back, they kind of run together in my head. I think it went something like this...

The time has come for the third installment of my annual Anime Retrospective! I'm wrapping up this year with this art tribute to the following series:

The World is Still Beautiful
Captain Earth
Rage of Bahamut: Genesis
The Irregular at Magic High School
Space Dandy

*As my reviews for the above series go live, I will update this list with links*

Like last year's retrospective, there was never a doubt that the overall theme would be one specific show: Space Dandy. I came up naturally with the classic space bounty hunter poses of the rascally Aloha Oe crew prepared to face off against all manner of strange alien threats - as characterized by the other anime in the list. Turning Captain Earth's Earth Engine into Admiral Perry was a last-minute decision. Originally, Earth Engine was there in all his glory, but I drew him last out of the other characters and ended up not integrating or sizing him well into the grouping. It was a terrible mess, but thanks to my Wacom tablet I re-did his entire portion in post. Thank goodness for technology!
