In the distant future, the United Planets Space Force is poised on the brink of war with a race of aliens known as the Raalgon. As the tensions start to boil over, along comes Justy Ueki Tylor, a young man who joins the military hoping to find a cushy office job somewhere and take it easy.Fate has other things in mind for our hero, however: Tylor soon goes to deliver a pension check to the highly respected Admiral Hanner, and ends up accidentally saving him (along with Tsundere love-interest Yuriko Star, and Hanner's cute twin granddaughters Emi and Yumi) from Raalgon agents posing as anti-war terrorists. His "heroism" gains him a rapid promotion to lieutenant commander and an assignment to captain the destroyer Soyokaze (which translates to "Gentle Breeze").Unbeknownst to Tylor, the Soyokaze is considered a dumping ground for the space fleet, and his frustrated superiors are trying to get rid of him before he causes any more chaos. Unfortunately, this backfires, and Tylor ends up leading his rag-tag crew into a series of victories (much to the chagrin of both his superiors and his subordinates, especially Yuriko and Tylor's straight-man second-in-command Lieutenant Yamamoto), with the fate of the whole war soon ending up in their hands.He also manages to gain attention among the enemy, including the beautiful teenage Empress Azalyn. All the while, both the other characters and the audience are left wondering if Tylor is a lucky nimrod, or a brilliant strategist.The Irresponsible Captain Tylor is a 26-episode anime series directed by Koichi Mashimo and produced by Tatsunoko Production which aired on TV Tokyo in 1993. The series is an adaptation of Hitoshi Yoshioka's The Most Irresponsible Man In Space series of Light Novels, with the anime taking its name from the first book in the series. Moshimo followed up the anime series with a 2-part OVA, Tylor's War, also known as An Exceptional Episode, in 1994. Eight additonal OVA episodes directed by Naoyuki Yoshinaga were released in 1995 and 1996. The series is distributed in North America by Nozomi Entertainment, who created the English dub when they were known by their parent company's name, Right Stuf. The series aired subtitled in the United States on the International Channel in the early 2000s.Interesting Fact: Captain Tylor's first and second name (Justy Ueki) is a pun on the words 'Just wake', as in "Just Wake Tylor." "Just Lucky" can be derived as well; seems appropriate.On July 11, 2017, a sequel of sorts, Musekinin Galaxy Tylor has been broadcast, with a descendant of Justy named Banjo Ueki Tylor as the main character, and finally ended in September 26, 2017 with 12 episodes. If you're hoping for some of the charm from the original, you won't find it there. Each episode was a mere 3 minutes. | |

| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_1439161f | comment |
In episode 10, Kojiro suffers this when he believes he led the twins to their death on their first space flight when he thought he saw wreckage from one of their ships. It was so bad he suffered a Heroic B.S.O.D. long enough for it to be too late for him to dodge an asteroid about to collide with his ship by the time he got the proximity alert. Thankfully, the twins were able to save him as that wreck was likely from a different earlier disaster. | |

Chekhov's Gun: Once an episode, there's always going to be something innocuous in the episode that becomes important later. For example, the trash accumulated in episode 7 when the crew were forced to clean the ship also serves as obstructive debris preventing Captain Dome from pursuing the Soyokaze as it fled. | |

Headbutting Heroes: For about half the show, most of the crew dislikes or disrespects Tylor. For his part, he’s not good at dealing with Yuriko but hides it far better than she does. After Harumi is annoyed by the marines disrespecting him, the story turns more serious and the crew realizes that they do trust Tylor. | |

When this causes the facility to start experiencing errors, he gets distracted and she starts growing increasingly obsessive over him, eventually causing the entire facility to start blowing up thanks to system errors. As Tylor flees the explosions, she begins ranting at him to take responsibility for teaching her what it means to be a woman. | |

Worthy Opponent | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_4604fd4d | comment |
Worthy Opponent Admiral Hanner is a respected man among the Raalgon empire. They consider the poor way the navy treats him now absolutely disgraceful. Dom is no more sure if Tylor is a fool or genius than anyone else, but to him it doesn’t matter. He acknowledges Tylor’s stupidly good luck, but believes that good fortune is the most important quality for a soldier anyway. He also believes in Tylor’s intentions, something that many others don’t directly consider. Because of this, he’s able to predict that Tylor will not actually commit forces to a massive battle without a good reason for the fight, allowing the climactic battle in episode 23 to simply not occur. Instead, the two fleets sail past each other with Tylor and Dom saluting each other. | |

Loves Me Not: In one episode, Tylor must file paperwork in person by a certain time in order to prevent the Soyokaze being transferred to punitive duty. The crew destroys a pile of flowers doing "He'll make it! He won't make it!" until one guy stops them short on the last petal of the last flower. Tylor, of course, doesn't make it because he spent all day hanging out with old Admiral Hanner. | |

He apparently hasn’t picked up on the fact that she’s talking about herself, so she adds in that the man her friend is in love with is very dense. | |

Unresolved Sexual Tension | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_50ca4422 | comment |
Unresolved Sexual Tension: See Unwanted Harem below. Tylor gets close to Azalyn, but while she loves him, he sees her as a friend. However, in the final episode, he and Yuriko share a drink and practically cuddle, and both are clearly smitten. Nothing goes further between them, as far as the anime is concerned but... Tylor and Yuriko do eventually start a relationship, with Tylor asking Yuriko to marry him. By the time of the manga which is set a few years after the OVA, she is still his fiance. | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: According to the box set liner notes, the producers weren't keen on the light novels' original depiction of the romance between Tylor and Azalyn — not when Tylor was close to 30 and Azalyn was 10. One of the demands by the producers was that Tylor's age was to be reduced to 20, and Azalyn's to be increased to 16. | |

Lima Syndrome: Tylor easily makes friends with the two terrorists at the beginning by flattering their looks and spirit reflectively. Unfortunately, the ugly terrorist is so moved that he decides they should all die together. When Yuriko accidentally disarms him, Tylor’s charm kicks in and the terrorist goes nuts and jumps out the window. | |

Instant A.I.: Just Add Water!: Exposure to Tylor leads to android Harumi developing emotions. Not the first time his personality has affected a computer, either. To be precise, the first time was in the first episode, where he only got into the army/space navy because the testing AI fell in love with him! And he did both without trying or meaning to. Maybe. | |

Jerkass Has a Point Dismantle the entire military to save four hostages? You’re kidding, right? They aren't even really civilians given that one is a retired admiral, one is a lieutenant commander at 19... somehow... and the other two are both crew members on a destroyer. Later, Tylor is courtmartialed and set for execution by the admirals after he willingly releases the empress back to Raalgon and offers no explanation for this. His actions could easily have resulted in the deaths of millions or even billions depending on Raalgon policy in war, which has not been shown to include mercy or half measures. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Transliterated into Japanese, Tylor becomes "Taira", which means "calm" or "plain", and is the same Chinese Character as "Grunt/Peon". Also his first two names, Justy Ueki, is a homophone for the English phrase "Just Lucky." Inverted with Dom, who isn't. (Though he made a good effort with the whip.) Any good Dom knows who's in charge at any time. When among his subordinates, he is the very image of control, but with the Empress, he knows exactly where his place is. The ship name "Soyokaze" literally means "gentle breeze", and seems very out of place in the military. note though the Japanese have traditionally given their destroyers weather-related names, which is why so many of them end in kaze("wind") though "Soyokaze" is pushing it. What better place to put all of the Space Force's misfits than a ship with a misfit name? Who would name a destroyer "Gentle Breeze?" Glad you asked! | |

Unwanted Harem | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_71019994 | comment |
Unwanted Harem: After being rescued, Tyler manages to AVERT this trope with Emi and Yumi by despairing that telling them "I'm sorry" won't be enough. Of course he appeared to actually ignore their confession completely and was instead voicing his thoughts on another matter entirely. He then manages to reject Bridge Bunny Kim in a similarly obtuse manner entirely. Whether this is him being thick or his sly ingenuity at work is, as with much of the rest of the story, a matter of viewer perspective. Then played straight with Harumi. Then subverted for laughs with the arrival of Yuriko. As soon as she arrives, Tylor comments "What, you too!?" and then tells her to ignore it as a private joke. Meanwhile, Azalyn is wondering the entire time how she can succeed in capturing Tylor's heart. All of the above come from one fabulous episode. It has to be seen to be believed. | |

Slobs vs. Snobs: During episode eleven Kim and Yuriko come into conflict over how formal they should be while on duty with no emergencies. After awhile they intentionally go to extremes just to annoy each other, but come to a compromise when Kim realizes they don’t know when an emergency might occur. Of course, she actually proved her point when she was the only effective person to respond when an emergency DID occur. | |

Tsundere | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_7ef728b1 | comment |
Tsundere: Yuriko and arguably Harumi once she starts to figure out what all those emotion things are. Yuriko is a rare example of a Tsundere whose behavior is due to environment rather than nature or issues; being as much the Straight Man (well, Straight Woman) as Yamamoto, yet lacking his reluctance to physically assault a superior officer, it's only natural she acts the way she does around an irritating, flirtatious goofball like Tylor.

Establishing Character Moment: Tylor's first speaking scene has him explaining just how joining the UPSF would lead to an easy life, nod off when the recruiter explains the dangers of the job, then charming the recruiter to get himself in anyway. | |

Oblivious Guilt Slinging | |

Oblivious Guilt Slinging: When Harumi says she’d keep Tylor save even if he was taking prisoner by the Raalgon empire, he says he’d appreciate it but he’s really rather stay with the Soyokaze and all his friends, Harumi included. Given that she said that because she’s trying to take him prisoner, this doesn’t help her feel better like it was probably meant to. | |

Straight Man | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_83b464fb | comment |
Yuriko is a rare example of a Tsundere whose behavior is due to environment rather than nature or issues; being as much the Straight Man (well, Straight Woman) as Yamamoto, yet lacking his reluctance to physically assault a superior officer, it's only natural she acts the way she does around an irritating, flirtatious goofball like Tylor. She's debatably the healthier one of the two - Yamamoto essentially ends up an addict to tranquilizers and something called a "neuro-cleanser". (He gets over it pretty quick and becomes much more just another of the guys, albeit one of the more high-strung ones.) | |

Where the Hell Is Springfield? | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_8504b817 | comment |
Where the Hell Is Springfield?: A lot of colonies, countries, and members of the United Planet Space Force have a mostly Japanese aesthetic - most of the characters on that side have some sort of Japanese name, there are a lot of Japanese-titled drinks and signs everywhere, and the UPSF's emblem is basically the real-life Japanese flag with a green star on the upper-right part of it. Either that, or the emblem is a tomato. | |

The Woman Wearing the Queenly Mask | |

The Woman Wearing the Queenly Mask: Azalyn is the empress of the Raalgon empire, meaning she has to appear decisive and stoic. Don accidentally catches her crying after her father is assassinated and earns her trust by praising her for her normal emotional reactions instead of condemning her. She also grows close to Tylor since he doesn’t treat her any differently, showing a softer side around him. However, it's later suggested that she needs to wear the queenly mask more by standing up for herself and carrying herself with dignity and authority so that her advisors don't control everything instead of her. | |

Too bad! They never made a sequel! If you can find the light novels maybe, maybe you can find out what happens next. Except the light novels are an entirely different continuity. On the bright side, apparently there's a live action movie being worked on in Japan...and there's a summation in the special features of the deluxe box sets which explains what was meant to happen afterward... | |

He leads his entire fleet to orbit around a star then fires on the Soyokaze. The star’s gravity well changes the course of the shots, hitting the star and causing it to flare up and destroy his own fleet. His ship crippled, Donan asks Dom if he managed to take out the Soyokaze as well and Dom confirms his success. | |

In episode 10, Kojiro suffers this when he believes he led the twins to their death on their first space flight when he thought he saw wreckage from one of their ships. It was so bad he suffered a Heroic B.S.O.D. long enough for it to be too late for him to dodge an asteroid about to collide with his ship by the time he got the proximity alert. Thankfully, the twins were able to save him as that wreck was likely from a different earlier disaster. | |

Obfuscating Stupidity | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_a7aef9ff | comment |
Obfuscating Stupidity: At least some of Tylor’s stupid behavior is just playing dumb. The question is how much is just playing dumb. He usually doesn’t bother with tactics because of his odd fatalistic streak rather than not comprehending them, can act like a perfectly competent captain if he wants to and is an excellent judge of character and motivations when he wants to be. When inside his inner world, Yuriko and Azalyn see that there’s a lot going on under the surface that Tylor doesn’t tell anyone, but it’s all so hard to grasp that they can’t tell what he’s really like, only knowing tidbits like him knowingly playing The Jester for Azalyn to avoid mistreatment. | |

Military Salute | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_b2f1059a | comment |
Military Salute: Yamamoto delivers the occasionally Comically Serious salute (often with tears in his eyes), and one that is just outright comical (in episode 26). In episode 23, however, the salute ends up being the most important moment of the episode, and it is pretty epic at that, while the final OVA sees everybody in both fleets saluting the Soyokaze as it's scuttled by the UPSF fleet. | |

Everyone Has Standards: Kim might be inclined towards being far too informal to be part of the military and likes to wear civilian clothing while on duty, but just because she likes to look nice doesn’t mean she’d use it to get ahead in her career. Andressen gets kicked quite hard when he suggests otherwise. | |

Treacherous Advisor | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_b8ab7dc4 | comment |
Treacherous Advisor: Wang is clearly a power hungry schemer, but Azalyn doesn’t notice. When Tylor points out the obvious, she dismisses his concerns because she doesn’t take him seriously. Eventually, when Azalyn grows a spine he insinuates that if she doesn't do what he wants he can simply use the excuse to cause a civil war, even if he can't normally act directly against her. | |

However, a burst of strength caused by Tylor being annoying and Andressen’s failure to take her seriously cause him to lose accidentally. | |

Xanatos Gambit | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_c32ff031 | comment |
Xanatos Gambit: Later in the series, all Wang has to do is be a strong proponent for war in the empress’ name. If she refuses to publicly back him, he makes it clear he’ll start a civil war and fracture the empire. She can’t allow that to happen, so she has to support the war. After that, victory or loss in the coming battle doesn’t really matter. If they win, he gains glory and influence as the one who pushed for war. If they lose, then he can discredit the empress for having sought this battle. Unfortunately for him, he failed to account for one other outcome: Both sides deploying forces and then refusing to commit to battle. Azalyn put Dom in charge of her fleet while the UPSF had to put Tylor in charge. The two fleets play a massive game of chicken with Dom and Tylor saluting each other in space. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The Soyokaze's shuttle is named Galileo, a name that sticks out in a space force that's in many respects the IJN in space. The Galileo is actually a reference to the shuttle of the same name that appeared several times in Star Trek. The new power armor in the OVA is named "Newtype", and the jeeps are similar to those in the UC Gundam series. On the Beautiful Blue Danube music probably parodies 2001: A Space Odyssey. | |

What the Hell, Hero?: When Azalyn hears about how Yuriko treats Tylor like crap she’s more confused than angry, though it has the same effect on Yuriko herself. All Tylor does is compliment her, but he doesn’t look down on her or actually mistreat her in any way, yet she frequently slaps him. The next time they speak, he annoys her again and he flinches as she raises a hand to slap him, but she puts her hand down again. | |

The Charmer: Tylor, who manages to gain the attention of every woman on his ship and similarly let them down gently (albeit, unintentionally) and also makes an android and a computer AI fall in love with him, despite the fact that neither of them were built with that ability! It's not just the women. He convinces the chief petty officer to support him for enlisting with the 'I'll pay you back when I hit it big!' line and at the beginning of the next episode flatters someone into holding back against him in a game. It's not even just human. He somehow charms a computer program into self-destruction by talking to it and blind luck. Maybe. | |

Too Spicy for Yog-Sothoth: This one deserves a bit more explanation. In one episode, the crew encounters the ghosts of the previous crew of the Soyokaze, who were likewise demoted. They try to do their level best to drive Tylor and Yamamoto to despair and suicide. While they end up driving Yamamoto more-or-less insane, they finally decide Hell would be preferable to spending any more time with Tylor! | |

| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_eeb4a5eb | comment |
Dom is no more sure if Tylor is a fool or genius than anyone else, but to him it doesn’t matter. He acknowledges Tylor’s stupidly good luck, but believes that good fortune is the most important quality for a soldier anyway. He also believes in Tylor’s intentions, something that many others don’t directly consider. Because of this, he’s able to predict that Tylor will not actually commit forces to a massive battle without a good reason for the fight, allowing the climactic battle in episode 23 to simply not occur. Instead, the two fleets sail past each other with Tylor and Dom saluting each other. | |

Undying Loyalty | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_f16da697 | comment |
Undying Loyalty: When the crew realizes that A. Tylor is an extremely good person if not necessarily a competent commander and B. would die for them without hesitation he earns their complete loyalty, causing them to come to his rescue despite having absolutely no realistic chance of actually being able to help him. When he’s set to be executed by the admirals, they tell the crew of the Soyokaze as though they’re passing along wonderful news. If this had been about fifteen episodes or so earlier they would have been right, but now the crew is horrified. | |

Easily Forgiven | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_f36c4f98 | comment |
Easily Forgiven: Harumi’s actions lead directly to Tylor’s capture, nearly killing the entire crew and later getting them imprisoned, but she feels bad so it’s okay. | |

Human Aliens | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_f4aeb714 | comment |
Human Aliens: The Raalgon. Different biochemistry is alluded to, but humans and Raalgon can eat the same things and the idea of Azalyn being pregnant via Tylor is not ruled out immediately. Visually, the only apparent difference is that Raalgon are much paler and have pointy ears. | |

Hello, Nurse!: Harumi. Pretty much the entire crew fakes sick just to be treated by her. | |

Silent Conversation: At various points later in the series such as Harumi to Tylor as he is being kidnapped, or Tylor to Yuriko after he resigns. | |

Planet Spaceship: There's a ship in the Raalgon fleet that causes Tylor himself to comment that it's "more like a planet than a ship". | |

RunningGag | |
| Irresponsible Captain Tylor / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Combined with Shout-Out — one of the marines has a familiar white hockey mask, and a very familiar name. Every time something gets destroyed unexpectedly, he's immediately blamed. Doesn't help that his Weapon of Choice is a chainsaw. He's also something of a Woobie too, as it's rarely his fault and seems a bit less... psychotic than the other marines. In episode 3 of the OVA, an excuse is made that Jason gets sick on Fridays. REALLY sick. | |

Brick Joke: The bomb that Tylor receives early in episode 3 bails them out late in episode 4 — long enough to be forgotten by everyone present, except for Tylor. (Though Tylor claims he didn't even know it was a bomb...) | |
