Common wisdom is that being a soldier is a rather nasty business with a great deal of blood and killing, and that's still true after mankind had discovered a way to cross interstellar distances. Nobility, Intelligence, self-sacrifice... all of these are essential to a soldier. And then, there's Tylor. An enigma (don't define that for him, he'd just fall asleep), Tylor has an undiscovered gift. He goes through life with an air of complacency that would give granite a run for its money. He may be, however, the one person who can save the World.
1: The Mysterious Irresponsible Man.
On little more than a whim, 20 year old Justy Ueki Tylor joins the United Planets Space Force. It couldn't have come at a more appropriate time: the Raalgon Empire is in turmoil! For both sides, it looks like space warfare on a grand scale is about to be unleashed. For Tylor, well, he's just counting the days until he can retire.
2: Hey, Ho! The Happy Pensioned Life!
Though war hasn't formally been declared, both sides are plotting and manuevering into position. The UPSF forces readying their fleet ... and the Raalgon forces are attempting to remove public support for their enemy. Making a hostage of a decorated war veteran goes flawlessly. What the Raalgon don't count on is Tylor delivering his pension ... in person!
3: The Ship Sets Sail, but Misgivings Remain.
With the hostage crisis behind him, Tylor is commissioned and given command of the "Soyokaze" ("Gentle Breeze": a rusty tin can by any other name). The ship isn't without its surprises ... or its dirty little secrets. None of the crew is very impressed with their new commander, and unpopular commanders don't last long here!
4: Enemy! Crisis! We Surrender!
Things are rapidly going from bad to worse on board the Soyokaze ... seems the Marines hate the Fighter Pilots and vice versa. The problem is that full scale war is breaking out between them ... and when Tylor is brought in to solve the problem, well ...
5: "Angel in White" Begins With an H.
The Soyokaze has received a new crewmember ... and suddenly every male on the ship is stricken with an incurable disease! The symptoms are racing heartbeat, shortness of breath, and an irresistible urge to supply new officer with ... flowers. Lots of flowers. Her arrival is a surprise, though, and there's more to her than just a pretty face.
6: The Tail of the Lizard's Tail.
Tylor is receiving a commendation for the Soyokaze's performance against the Raalgon ... but it's a booby prize to be sure! Fuji and Mifune aren't happy at all happy about their victorious commander and have decided to deal with him once and for all. If he was killed in battle along with his crew, everything would be great! Not too difficult for them ...
7: A Gentleman's Word is His Bond.
Yuriko has had it with the entire crew's lax attitude, and sees her chance to fix things to her liking and the regulations! Even Captain Tylor is not immune to her campaign to make the Soyokaze a first class fighting vessel! Of course, it would be a terrible thing if the Raalgon fleet (and an excellent commander) were to attack ... right now!

| The Irresponsible Captain Tylor was one of the most memorable animes I have seen in a while. Its comedy was top notch, and watching each episode wants to make you go on the next. The first few episodes were a bit slow, but when he finally took Captain, it was non-stop fun. I specifically enjoyed the personality of the Captain and his Happy-Go-Lucky attitude. |

| The director of "Noir" and ".hack//SIGN", "Madlax", and most recently "Tsubasa Chronicle", has been at it for a while. Since the "Director" cast entries in GreenCine aren't quite right for anime, here's what they have of his work. |
