Cannon Busters is an anime based on LeSean Thomas' 2005 comic book of the same name, written and directed by Thomas himself, and with the animation done by the Japanese studio Satelight with Yumeta Company. Cannon Busters was initially crowdfunded on Kickstarter in 2014, successfully raising over $150,000 against a $120,000 goal, and after several years, finally led to the entire series being picked up by Netflix as part of their goal to expand into the anime market.The story follows the adventures of Philly the Kid, an outlaw and the youngest wanted vigilante in the land of Gearbolt, who accompanies a young girl drone named Samberry, alongside an outdated repair bot named Casey Turnbuckle, as she seeks her owner Prince Kelbi.Given that the comic it was based on only lasted two issues (due to Thomas' busy schedule keeping him from completing it in a time where indie comics weren't nearly as viable), Adaptation Expansion is practically necessary. | |

Red Right Hand: Just about every villain in the series has some sort of obvious physical trait that marks them as villainous. Jojo has a literal red right hand- he wears a red glove on his right hand to conceal the fact that he has a revolver in place of the first two fingers and thumb of the hand. | |

Royal Brat | |
| Cannon Busters / int_55ab1be5 | comment |
Royal Brat: Prince Kelbi is a classic case of a prince who's discontent with royal life just because he has no idea what the real world is like. He doesn't even seem to grasp that there is a murderous magician army after him, and, in episode 4, he insisted on resting at a castle that has clearly been overtaken before Odin talked him out of it. | |

Mistaken for Prostitute | |
| Cannon Busters / int_c30b3981 | comment |
Mistaken for Prostitute: In episode 8, Sam gets mistaken for a Sex Bot by a man named JT (or just a flesh-and-blood prostitute since she never tells him she's a robot) who takes what she innocently says in a sexual way. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Cannon Busters / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: In-universe, Bessie is apparently a 1950 model of something called a "Mospeada" according to Casey. The three drunkards Philly meets in a bar in the episode "9ine" seem to be non-human versions of the Three Old Men (also drunkards) from Cowboy Bebop. In both groups, two guys wear hats (one has a red-and-white one and the other brown) and the hatless one is brunette. The Fetter becomes very Hollow-like after continuous absorption of Philly's Life Energy, with the hole in its chest, skull mask, and the rest of its exoskeleton. The floating city of Shavon, which dumps its trash onto the junkyard city of Zenith below, is a pretty obvious one to Tiphares/Zalem and the Scrapyard from Battle Angel Alita. During the final battle, Sam, who's transformed into Humongous Mecha starts generating cross-shaped sparkles similar to that seen in Studio Gainax and Studio TRIGGER works like Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, Kill la Kill, and DARLING in the FRANXX. The term "Cannon Buster" is even very close to "GunBuster" and Sam's similarity to Nono is even played up. They are both initially unaware that they're Pintsized Powerhouse Superweapons, gain Flaming Hair when their powers are awakened, and can transform to larger forms. 9ine was once part of the Red Ronin, a group of 47 samurai mercenaries. | |

Purpose-Driven Immortality | |
| Cannon Busters / int_cd87bdbe | comment |
Purpose-Driven Immortality: Possibly; Philly sold his soul for immortality specifically so he could track down and kill the people responsible for killing his parents, but it's unclear if fulfilling the vow will make him mortal again. | |

Vitriolic Best Buds | |
| Cannon Busters / int_d7fc9fd0 | comment |
Vitriolic Best Buds: Philly teaches Sam about this concept in episode 8. He tells her that friends more often rib and insult each other. Sam takes to the idea, insulting Philly's hygiene and odor, getting laughs out of Philly. She later entertains a group of would-be kidnappers with this until Philly retrieves her. | |

Animesque: A blurred example, as the series is based on an American comic book while being written and directed by its creator, while being produced by Netflix, yet the animation is done by the Japanese Satelight. Officially speaking, it's considered an anime. | |

Dark and Troubled Past | |
| Cannon Busters / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Dark and Troubled Past: Currently three for three. First up is Philly used to be a good kid if the ending credit is anything to go by, till Botica (That is Botica during the age of magic) destroyed his home and killed his parents, where he fled and bumped into a sorcerer who gave him his unique Resurrection magic so he can get revenge, only for it to spiral into a life of debauchery (With at least two others saying he squandered his gift). Is it any wonder his catchphrase is "I hate my life"? Next up is Locke, born the illegitimate son of the King of Botica and an unnamed woman, and both were banished to the wastes, with Locke growing to despise his father and his half-brother (to the point he made a Deal with the Devil to get his revenge) 9ine as well, he was a member of 47 samurai till almost the whole group was killed and they became ruthless mercenaries, till one botch job cause 9ine to quit the group and became a wandering swordsman. | |
