This show is such a weird amalgamation of other inspirations and references, it shouldn't work but it just *does* so well. Just sad it didn't do better in Japan and get a season 3. The style of Batman. The combat of Godzilla. A dash of Cowboy Bebop. Countless references to other greats from western and anime culture. It was a who's who of show archetypes and references and I loved every minute of it.
It did well in Japan, but only in the home release theater. Like Bebop it got struck with the Bad Timeslot Bug on initial release, but by the early 2000s word of mouth passed enough that the DVD releases were overwhelming successes.
One of the things that I liked about this show, is how noir it seemed. It seemed like Batman, it looked like Gotham City, and the styles looked a lot like Batman animated. So cool. Plus, I get all nostalgic when I hear this song!
As a kid growing up, this would always show on adult swim late at night and I had no idea wtf it was about.. other than the suit guy and.. a Mecha called Big O? Idk I should go back and watch it now that I'm an adult and might find it more interesting. Oh but I always loved the theme song. As a kid I'd legit stay for the theme, then change to Nick at night
It already exists. It’s called Batman and this show is a ripoff of Batman. I mean, the guy literally looks exactly like Bruce Wayne. Are you kidding me?
Yeah you can tell that this was a far cry from other mech anime shows of the time just by the theme song and opening. Most Mech shows of the time have either a J-Pop or J-Rock theme, and an opening which depicts mechs doing cool stuff and shows off the cast. The Big O? Queen-inspired theme music about how awesome the protagonist and mech is and opening sequence inspired by the Ultraman franchise.
70s "rock opera" style Both the departments of Construction and Water Management in Paradigm Cityhad to hate Big O for busting up pavement, sewers, water mains and sidewalks all the time. Contractors loved Big O!
Here after the Big-O Origin PC reveal. Ultimate PC, that needs this song played when loading up in my Secret Lab Chair and 95 dollar Walmart Monitor I got from the pawn Shop.
duncan bravo Like every anime on the planet because that’s basically this community entirely filled with rotten insect parasites? Man, I’m so sick and tired of everyone saying that every anime is literally the best of all time. Can’t we ever be critical for once and bash it? Please?
You should probably go for the more well known anime- the ones that have been syndicated. I'd suggest Rurouni Kenshin (perhaps Heart of the Sword), Dragon Ball Z (it may be difficult to find a track to fit in with the musical medley), Naruto, Bleach, etc. Go for good sounding stuff first, of course, but I think it needs to also be known enough for people to enjoy it, I mean, I don't think I've ever seen Chobits on TV before.
I think next to Inuyasha, Cowboy Bebop, & Samurai Champloo, Big O was my favorite. Lupin the 3rd wasn't too bad either. I do miss the old lineup though, I don't know what that is Adult Swim is passing off these days!
Funny experience. The other day in the streets i humming this song when a fat chick starts screaming insults at me. She've heard "Big hoe, Big hoe, Big hoooooe......". Needless to say. I've laughed out loud & i've learned a lesson: Don't sing anime songs in American streets. Well. Nice song & nice hommage to Queen.
People in their early twenties might not catch those references right away- but whether they do or don't seem unimportant at this point. This OP is amazing on its own. Actually, there' something erotic about the "Big O" title (an allusion to "the Story of O" perhaps?) I just wish the uploader labeled this as "anime" rather than "cartoon" since the origins of this fiction is Japan, not the West. In any case, the comments in the threads below are gold. They shouldn't be the reason for listening to this piece- but the context is enough to drive discussions forward so that this anime can be given a second, third, etc. chance to shine again.
@@peppermillers8361 I know. It's just that anime is the Japanese (and Japan "cartoons" fans) way of labeling the same thing to distinguish it from Western and non-Japan-based production.
For everyone who is so very heavily reminded of Queen when they hear this, a tidbit; that was *deliberate* on the part of the songwriters/composers when they made this; they took their primary inspiration from Queen songs, and in fact studied them closely in preparation for making this.
Yeah, it’s a total ripoff of Queens song but they get away with plagiarizing it even though these freaks complain about copyright on the internet. Yeah figure that one out. Anime literally has no originality whatsoever. This genre is a complete joke.
>but they get away with it my dude they very literally did not get away with this, the song has very conspicuously not seen any use in anything related to Big O since like 2003.
That's what kinda inspired me to download Big O because I was saying to a few of my friends that Big O is if batman had a big fucking robot....and if Alfred fought....and if Robin was a cute android girl.
When you think about it, on paper, this show should not have worked. It should have been an utter mess. Theme song homaging Queen, titles homaging one of the Ultraman shows, this series homaging Batman, film noir, giant mecha anime, James Bond, heck, R. Dorothy Wainwright can be seen as a love letter to Isaac Asimov and Philip K. Dick, but…it did. Those absolute madlads did it. It worked. They made an incredible series out of it. Amazing.

This was my first anime. I grew up in a Christian household, so if it wasn't Disney or Christian Media, with the exception of some musicals like Sound of Music and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, I wasn't allowed to watch it. One day we got Cartoon Network and I stayed up one night and managed to catch it. Became obsessed with Mecha Anime. It eventually evolved and I became obsessed with anything that had giant monsters, giant robots/mechas or a combination of the two. I remember when I was 21 and saw the revised Mighty Morphin Power Rangers on TV. I was so pissed that I had missed it as a kid, it would have been right up my alley with all the giant robots and giant monsters and shit.
It's not merely a reference to "Flash," the song is reminiscent of Queen in numerous ways; the guitar playing is a clear emulation of Brian May in both sound and style.
Big O just wows me. The opening theme is an homage to Queen, the series itself is a nod to Giant Robo (The Big O's design and weaponry, Roger summoning it via watch, most of the enemy mechs and monsters wouldn't look out of place in Giant Robo) and kaiju movies (the soundtrack during the fight and when the enemy of the week appears), noir (soundtrack, lighting, the shots and setting) and Batman. I'm surprised this only last 1 season in Japan and Cartoon Network dropping it after Season 2.
When you put it that way now I want to go back and re-watch it. I was definitely too young to appreciate it when it came out but I bet you it would do wonders with a remake series.
Love that it's a tribute to Queen and Flash Gordon. This show was awesome and I've always wanted a car or phone that started up with "Cast in the name of God... Ye not guilty."
I remember this played one year at "Name That Anime Tune" at Anime Boston .. no one knew what the hell song it was until the first "BIG O!" and then everyones hand shot up with the answer.
I’m not sure if I’ll ever get that feeling of staying up late at night to watch great anime’s like Big O, but I’m glad it happened at all. Ordered the blu ray and I’m so ready to watch again!
hell, we couldn't hear the lyrics it DID have since it was censored on tv. heaven forbid anyone talk about god. we gotta make sure he feels unwelcome so he stays the hell out of our affairs, right? ... and also the rest of the lyrics.. were just unable to be pronounced in anything resembling english.
@Tsukasamacleod The protagonist wasn't being whiny. The protagonist was being believable. Shinji experienced quite a lot, and people never give him credit for it. The story was about him overcoming things, but the sad thing is, many people don't, especially when they're fourteen and have the weight of all of humanity placed on them. There was only one plot hole, which was Kaoru talking to the monoliths before he met them, and they patched it up later. Also, two things can have similar endings.

You're thinking of Season 1.
Season 2 was a flop in both US and Japanese Markets.
@@TheAntiSantafrom what I've read, it didn’t seem like S2 flopped all that much. In fact, it probably got about as much as needed.
@peppermillers8361 Season 2 wasn't bad either, and the ending only didn't make sense to people who weren't paying attention.
@@LordMalice6d9it made sense, I'm just not a huge fan of those type of endings. I've come to terms with the ending by now.
If people are wondering why the theme sounds like Flash Gordon, it's because it was done on purpose, paying homage to the song.
And it's a damn good tribute. I'm a life long Queen fan and this makes my inner Freddie Mercury smile. :-)
I've been listening to Queen since I was five. Watched anime since about that same time too. This merges both and makes me so happy!
If Freddie Mercury we’re alive I would see him making a English dub of this
@@cirkuitknight Also him and Queen approving this song.
The second OP is based on the UFO theme song also
One of the things that I liked about this show, is how noir it seemed. It seemed like Batman, it looked like Gotham City, and the styles looked a lot like Batman animated. So cool. Plus, I get all nostalgic when I hear this song!
This show was animated by one of the studios that worked on Batman: The Animated Series. The influence is very clear.
"Roger. I love you. But we only have 14 hours to save Paradigm City."
pmprofflmao
Paradigm city had so much destruction I am amazed that they even had a city budget lol
If FLCL got a S2/S3 15 years later... maybe just maybe we'll get a big O season 3
Yes please
Maybe a 12 episode live action series by WB-Discovery?
And a Certain Magical Index
I don't think he shood get one it ended good
Man fuck all of these new animes, older ones actually meant something, the theme song is even amazing
What I’m saying
As a kid growing up, this would always show on adult swim late at night and I had no idea wtf it was about.. other than the suit guy and.. a Mecha called Big O? Idk I should go back and watch it now that I'm an adult and might find it more interesting. Oh but I always loved the theme song. As a kid I'd legit stay for the theme, then change to Nick at night
You should. It’s a great anime
Paying tribute to Batman the animated series and Queen...what an amazing combination this show was.
Sunrise was one of the studios that worked on this show. They also worked on Batman: The Animated Series.
This and the Outlaw Star intro are my all time favorites.
I like how it starts off cool then gets kinda creepy.
loved this show. Lupin the third big o cowboy beebop good times.
I always get the urge to give a cheeky wink with every chime in this song... it just.... it's a reflex and I don't know why
Nothing but a man...... who can never fail.........
we need a live action big o movie. big o its showtime!!!!
I agree!
Zack Harris Imagine if Pacific Rim had a shout-out to The Big O, it wouldn't have been too out-of-place considering what the Jägers do.
We did it was called Pacific rim
That would've been so cool!
It already exists. It’s called Batman and this show is a ripoff of Batman. I mean, the guy literally looks exactly like Bruce Wayne. Are you kidding me?
Yeah you can tell that this was a far cry from other mech anime shows of the time just by the theme song and opening.
Most Mech shows of the time have either a J-Pop or J-Rock theme, and an opening which depicts mechs doing cool stuff and shows off the cast.
The Big O? Queen-inspired theme music about how awesome the protagonist and mech is and opening sequence inspired by the Ultraman franchise.
Aw yiss. The synthesis of this is delicious.
Next to " Tank " this is one of my favorite Anime songs. Such a simple but epic song.
Hey you can't forget H.T. From Trigun! Or Through the Night from Outlaw Star!
BIG O!!! AAAAAAHHHH!!! Savior of the Universe!
Shit I almost forgot how epic this Big O theme is takes me right back to my childhood. Also that fucking 🎸 at 2:00 is beyond epic and 🔥.
Pretty great homage to Queen here.
LMFAOOOOOO My all time favorite show from i was smaller
FLAAASH AHHHH-ahhhh....oh whoops...wrong show.
yooooo I thought this song just didn't have a full version, cant believe I only just found this
70s "rock opera" style
Both the departments of Construction and Water Management in Paradigm Cityhad to hate Big O for busting up pavement, sewers, water mains and sidewalks all the time. Contractors loved Big O!
Here after the Big-O Origin PC reveal. Ultimate PC, that needs this song played when loading up in my Secret Lab Chair and 95 dollar Walmart Monitor I got from the pawn Shop.
I just got the blu-ray release of big o and sadly this is not the opening song
I was so disappointed when this was not the opening
Exact reason I'm holding onto my DVD sets.
CAST YE IN THE NAME OF GUY, YE NOT GUILTY. WE HAVE COME TO TEAM BIG OOOOOOOoooooooooOOOOOOOOHhh
CAST IN THE NAME OF GOD....YE NOT GUILTY
2:00 Brian May would be proud.
BIG O! SHOWTIME!
Ah, my Japanese Batman
The concept is the anime rendition of Batman.
What tipped you off? After the first second I could hear that.
One of the best Anime
duncan bravo Like every anime on the planet because that’s basically this community entirely filled with rotten insect parasites? Man, I’m so sick and tired of everyone saying that every anime is literally the best of all time. Can’t we ever be critical for once and bash it? Please?

IT'S SHOW TIME
It's... It's... ASIAN QUEEN!
Big O = epic XD
PsychoDoggie My ball sac is more epic than this show.
I hear that, Jthe Lightseeker
Although, I would also say that it's only mediocre creepy. Not totally creepy. Even still, though.
I think next to Inuyasha, Cowboy Bebop, & Samurai Champloo, Big O was my favorite. Lupin the 3rd wasn't too bad either. I do miss the old lineup though, I don't know what that is Adult Swim is passing off these days!
Toonami is now a part of Adult Swim.

Well. Nice song & nice hommage to Queen.
I kinda wish the whole song sounded like 1:17 the whole way through but it's still good as is
Nope. Adult Swim wrote it on their twitter page.
big o vs bumble bee
3 people were guilty
I HEAR FLASH! :P
+Darkninja282 it's even more obvious in this version, they even have the slow part in the middle.
This is better than the latter theme, god I hate the other one.
...FOR REAL?
At 1:55 I heard in the background a car crash.
This song is like if Queen did an Ultraman opening and you can definitely tell from the opening’s aesthetic they were going for that

I didn't catch any other Queen songs besides the theme to Flash Gordon.
I’d love to see this theme performed live with Brian May and Roger Taylor playing guitar and drums.
Big O. He saved everyone of us.
stand for everyone of us
Fought for Everyone of Us!
Its like the Japanese version of Queen, so good. Miss the late nights this would come on.
I with you on this one

Your Mom You messed it up. Should've just said Empress. :|
Jimmy Venus and Empress made this beautiful song
Imagine if Freddie Mercury was still with us, loved this opening, gave Queen’s blessing, and personally covered it...
His Royal Highness probably would have sung back up lol.
Flash! Aaaaaaah! Sa--shit wrong song.
Well, you're not wrong
I am the opposite I hear Flash and I think of this song!

Same here. I grew up in a hyper religious household and this anime among others during that time slot was my escape. Thanks for sharing.
Flash Gordon + Bohemian Rhapsody = Big O theme
+nervmeister yeah pretty much lol
Queen was the direct inspiration for this, so, yeah. Makes sense.
Facts lol😅🤣😂
Big O.... If Batman was an anime and had a giant robot. Lol
I mean. The same studio made Batman The Animated Series. Both were done By Sunrise, but Batman TAS was distributed to America
And decided today I will be james bond
@LaVerdadEsMuyCatólica I'd watch it! Lol
To be fair, Rodger looks like Bruce Wayne.
It's not merely a reference to "Flash," the song is reminiscent of Queen in numerous ways; the guitar playing is a clear emulation of Brian May in both sound and style.
The opening is very reminiscent of the way Queen would harmonize their vocals, as well.
Only Brian May himself can pull the guitar orchestrations perfectively. HE plays his traditional red special.
Cheesy song as fuck! BUT I FREAKING LOVE IT! Guilty pleasure of mine. xD LOL
I always imagine the piston punch at the end.

This might explain why Roger seems like a pointier Bruce Wayne...
I can almost here Freddy and Queen singing this.

Queens Flash Gordon Tribute
Michael Landsman yo listen to the Queen cover album by THE PROTOMEN it's all like this but higher sound quality
This show was highly underrated.
If you play this in the club, guaranteed somebody is getting shot
If this EVER came on in a club, I would legit lose control. I'd get completely hype and not even care.
I’m not sure if I’ll ever get that feeling of staying up late at night to watch great anime’s like Big O, but I’m glad it happened at all. Ordered the blu ray and I’m so ready to watch again!
as good as you remembered?
Who knew this song had more lyrics....never heard this full version....kinda reminds me of a 80's type"Queen" flash Gordon song. Pretty cool :)
ya think?
what gave it away? it couldnt be the insanely similar parts of the melody now could it?
Maybe they hired Brian May (Queen) since HE has the original Red Special Guitar.
sounds like a fusion of two great Queen songs Bohemian Rhapsody and Flash
hell, we couldn't hear the lyrics it DID have since it was censored on tv.
heaven forbid anyone talk about god. we gotta make sure he feels unwelcome so he stays the hell out of our affairs, right?
... and also the rest of the lyrics.. were just unable to be pronounced in anything resembling english.
Big O! Showtime! [said mech pops out of the ground and I jump in and the screen flashes "Cast in the name of God! Ye Not Guilty"] Big O! And Action!
Play this and play the Pacific Rim trailer at the same time, muted. Do it now. You're welcome.
Why would I sully such an awesome song with such a ter... Shit! 6 Years ago!? Damn!
Back when animes had calling card themes. Now its all just some bland, generic j-rock or whatever.
I love Big O so much. They just did whatever the hell they wanted and it fuzzed into this strange, goofy, wonderful, insightful show!
13 people are louses.
those first 20 seconds... gives me goosebumps!!
This song still hits all the right notes!
This is what happen when you give Bruce Wayne a giant robot
