Depends on the ending

The big twist was Metropolis. See Metropolis is a classic old mecha anime/book/show that features Roger Smith in a city that lost its memories, featuring beloved tropes like: everyone was a tomato, the Megadeus is alive and chooses their pilots, there are only 3 Megadeus and Dominus etc...

Big O was an "adaptation" of Metropolis by Angel, who was in love with Roger Smith. So much so that she decided to turn the adaptation to have some shitty self-insert named Angel. So instead of the finale of BigO and Big Fau, you get some literal deus ex machina Big Venus

At the end: Roger broke through to the real world and told Angel she needs to stop running away from her real life and live her own life, not try to live a fantasy. In a way, he broke through and asked Angel to not do a shitty Netflix adaptation of his fictional story.

The world resets, and production restarts

Lmao accurate.

Direct homage/reference - even the ability.

On the reboot is it the real world? Or does it literally just start the whole show again, because you see Dorothy & Angel stood side by side as Roger's vehicle passes for the beginning sequel of episode 1. You keep saying netflix but mothings there when I search.

BigO, the show we watch, is an omage to shitty reboots and adaptations by people who can't just write their own original stories. AKA Netflix shows

I always figured the obscenely stereotypical Japanese businessmen in that one episode were there as a sort of self-effacing way to thank the Americans for funding the second season.

The plot of this anime isn't perfect. The mandatory mecha battle every episode sometimes feels forced. The animation can be a little wonky.

But the atmosphere is incredible. The color palette, the music, the characters, the wistfulness of the little arcs along the way. The anime really manages to show, not tell, the kind of place paradigm city is.

Ah, get you now haha

It really does. I'm finding it hard to find something that compares in that aspect to say the show came out 20+ years ago.

which version of the show is better: the sub or the dub?

Beautiful to watch.

I've only ever seen the dub & they genuinely did a great job of it go say it was like 1998-2001.

Dub because the American accents match the setting. Steve Blum and Dorothy's VA are genuinely good.

There was a thread a week back where someone dumped some Big O short stories, are there more of those? I know there's a manga but I havent read it yet

If you're over 20 and watched toonami growing up this show should he embedded in your classics.

Someone brought it up and I had to revisit it. The nostalgia makes me want to cry.

I can give you a run down of the manga but its spoiler. Ends differently too.
