    According to Wikipedia, "Attack on Titan began serialization in Kodansha's monthly publication Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine in its September 2009 issue" And Knights of Sidonia "debuted in Kodansha magazine Afternoon's June issue in 2009."

    It is doubtful that one influenced the other.

        How far are you going to take this spoiler-warning thing exactly?

                It's actually kind of like Cowboy Bebop, only with a womanizing egomaniac as the protagonist.

                  Bebop actually has a coherent, if weird, plot. Dandy barely manages coherent episodes...

                    Nah, Space Dandy's episodes are coherent enough, you're thinking of Bobobo-bobo-bobobo. Seriously, I swear the writers of that were on meth, or something.

                      There was at least the occasional JB episode that was amusing. SD... not so much.

                        There have been four I actually liked. Most are just nuts but a few are actually thought provoking.

                          I assure you, I've never thought of Bo.... ever.

                          Dandy does (barely) manage coherent episodes - but there is no real plot line, unlike Bebop.

                            It's mainly like Bebop because they're a group of bounty hunters that travel the galaxy. Not because of the non-plot.

                              Eh, I see your point but they technically aren't bounty hunters - more like African explorers bringing back specimens...

                              • Chrawn, no reading until you've read the latest Naruto.












































































                                I LOVE it!!! That's more like it!

                                And yeah, it's probably a foreshadow - what isn't in Naruto?
