Edoropolis Emporium

I'm sure this topic has been discused time and time again. But, I haven't seen all of the SPC episodes in a while. I would like to know by popular demand what would be considered the best SPC episode? If I were to introduce the cats to a friend, I want to start by putting the cat's best front paw foward.

I can't really remember the greatitude of every episode so I can't really choose a favourite episode. If you wanted to show SPC to a friend, I would defiantly recommend NOT showing them the first episode to represent the entirety of the series. My younger cousin was visiting a few months ago. When I told him about SPC, we only had time to view half an episode. I showed him the end half of "Stop Dragon My Cat Around" so he could see the Cats in action. He was impressed by the concept (and thought Speedy and The Cat's Eye Slash were totally b*tch'n) but what turned him off was the repetition of the Dragon attack. I promised, next time I would show him a much better episode (The Terror of Prisoner Island).

Well, let’s see, an episode for a dude who has never seen the show before? That has to be “Youth Is For Exploding”, your basic SPC episode but with great humorous quotes, if you don’t like SPC after that episode, you never will.

My personal favourites are The Big Comet Caper pt. I & II, and Pizza Bird Delivers.

Though in terms of episode I've found the funniest:

1. Pizza Delivery of Doom
2. Gender Bender Butterflies
3. Youth is for Exploding
4. The Terror of Prisoner Island
5. Cold and Crabby in Little Tokyo

The Big Comet Caper special is by far my favorite.

Andy (The one who thinks that's the best one out of them all)

My Favs are:

No Talent Guido
Pizza Cat Performence Review
Big Comet Caper Part II

By far, my favorite episode is The Nuclear Potato.

Hm, fave episode... It's kinda hard to pick one, so I'll just name a few off the top of my head:

Youth Is For Exploding-My friend was watching this one and kept slowly shaking his head and saying, "Boom?..."
Quake, Rattle And Roll-Every once in a while, insanity will do you some good.
No Talent Guido-Well, it's maybe the only episode that the story focuses on him.
Gone With The Ginzu-One of the funniest ones. I died laughing at the lines in this one.
Pizza Bird Delivers- Egburt. 'Nuff said.
Pizza Delivery Of Doom-More great lines, plus we get to see just what underneath toilets.  :D
Gender Bender Butterflies-I've heard many a complaint that this didn't make it into the US. I was surprised just to find out that it had been dubbed. But, Saban did dub DBZ, so...


I've seen every single one except for one. Can't remember its name. However, there aren't any I don't like. Even some of the more mediocre episodes have jokes and events that I really like.

"The Terror of Prisoner Island" is one of the best episodes ever made. :-*

I've heard lots of people say they really like that episode but I never found it very special. What is so appealing about it?  :huh:

"If you knew sushi like I knew sushi" had some good laughs, especially the references to Bad Bird's eyebrows and how the characters spewed one gag after another. Hang on a sec...

WAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Pizza Delivery of Doom was the first episode I ever saw (and I missed the first 5 minutes or so).  After that, I was hooked.  I did know a little about KNT before I knew about SPC, so it caught my interest right away when I noticed the characters looked familiar.

One of my top favourites would have to be Drumming Up Trouble With a Big Bad Beat.  Not only because of the tongue twisters and the first 'Green' Robot, but also because of how close Walkie Talkie came to succeeding.  Few episodes ever came so close. (Speedy's finisher and the battle can seem to scripted at times, and I liked how they ran through all the

Another one that I enjoyed would be All You Need Is Love, for being humorous and yet sticking reasonably true to it's source material.

Whatever you do, DON'T show people Episode 52 (The Pizza Cats Cop Cartoon Careers). In fact, act like it never happened.

Oh yes, ep 52... so that makes me a liar when I said there were no episodes I disliked. :-\
I remember watching it and thinking, "How cheap."

Big Comet Caper, hands down. I had seen portions of SPC eps prior to this one, and disliked the series because it looked so childish and immature; I saw BCC on a day home from school, and appreciated the episode's more serious tone so much that it compelled me to go back and watch the entire series.

Unfortunately, it may be a little counterproductive for new fans to watch the series finale first, so I'd reccommend other good episodes, like Bad Bird Uncaged.

My favourite is 'Underground, Underwater, Undercooked',though I'm probably saying that as it was the first one I saw when I was little. I think it has some of the funniest dialogue of the series. I also like 'The Pizza Cats Are Only Human' Part 1 and 2.

(By the way, Sinder I love your new sig!)

I have to watch all the episodes again first to be sure what my favorites are. For now, I can tell you that my favorite when I was a kid was probably "The Nuclear Potato".

So far, a new favorite of mine is "Pizza Delivery of Doom." Absolutely hilarious, especially the part where Princess Vi mistakes Big Cheese for a monster and chases him with her naginata. (Plus the part where she tries to make a composite sketch of the alleged "monster" like a hundred times and never gets it right.)

I think one of my favorites, or more memorable ones at least, had to be Princess Vi's Hippy Dippy Mom (I haven't seen most of the episodes for some time, but this one still sticks out in my memory). I thought Frieda was a pretty cool character, plus her interactions with Violet and Fred were sort of amusing. I still remember Al Dente's "post" inccident or whatever in that episode, at least I believe that's the one that had it in there

Youth is for Exploding and No Talent Guido win in my book

After re-watching the entire first half of the season, there were indeed some episodes that I liked better than "Pizza Delivery of Doom."

Although the show was fun from the beginning, I think it really took off after Episode 18, "Speedy's Double-Time Trick." That started a string of nine or ten consistently excellent episodes. But so far my new favorites are "Pizza Bird Delivers!" (Ep. 21), "Big Cheese Shows His Filmy Substance" (Ep.22), and "Kung Fu Kitty Contest" (Ep. 42).

"Pizza Bird Delivers" was probably the best episode in the series so far, simply because of the excellent plot and the fact that we saw a new side of Bad Bird. It was probably the first time that the show really blurred the line between good and evil; in fact, the Cats spend so much time conspiring against Bad Bird that they almost seem like the antagonists. I also liked the hilarious subplot that Bad Bird didn't recognize the Cats even though their battle armor is basically the same as their usual armor.

That was followed up with a comedic masterpiece in "Big Cheese Shows His Filmy Substance." This one was a delight to watch. Princess Vi (and her cute director's outfit) and Big Cheese steal the show here. Cheese's costumes and antics were always funny, but this time he totally kills. In fact, almost every line in the script kills, and that was a rarity even for Samurai Pizza Cats.

Much later, we had "Kung Fu Kitty Contest," which was an instant favorite of mine thanks to its excellent fight sequences. It was interesting how Bad Bird stopped Jerry Atric from rigging the final duel between Speedy and Big Cheese's latest robot, Bullshot Bill.  The winner got to take Princess Vi on a date, but unfortunately we never saw the actual date between her and Speedy. For all we know, they could have hit it off. ^^



I still have to watch several more episodes, but so far those three have been the strongest. Other popular ones like "Field of Screwballs", "All You Need is Love", and "Youth is For Exploding" were all pretty good, too.

Samurai Charm School is the best episode. Common, its an episode mostly about Polly, how could you go wrong?


Sometimes i'm so brilliant I scare myself.

I wouldn't say it's my favourite. But, yes, it's a very special episode.

"YOU! ...have stolen dreams!" The best thing Polly says in that episode.

What ever happend to that Angry Polly emoticon I requested? Somebody made a good one and it was never implemented. Why not?  >:(

I still have it:

(http://home.mchsi.com/~mbiddinger/angrypolly2.gif)

Yah that's the one. *Chuckles* I still think it looks like a Cacodemon.

Okay, now I'm cracking the whip. I want to see this emoticon amoungst the rest by the end of the week! Is that clear!?

bad Bird Uncaged 1 and 2 show the action and cruel humor of the series... Gender bender Butterflies shows how much pervert can be this show (Without censure off course)... I rmeember laugh so hard with that one when the Pizza Cats are looking for the Cucoo Bird. specially when Speedy touches the BB's ass thinking that is Polly's ass...

Anyway my favorite episode is BAd Bird Uncaged 2 cause all the Pizza cats are shown in action; the only bad point od Comer Caper 2 is that Guido and Polly are left behind liek the other charcters...

I submit that Gone with Ginzu is one of the best episodes. It has a reference to River City Ransom, which makes it epic win.

My faves:

1. The Great Comet Caper-Speedy and Polly finally get together, the Supreme Catatonic wastes that huge comet and saves Little Tokyo, and Good Bird and Carla are happilly reunited. I really liked the angst on Polly's part when she thought Speedy had died, only to have him show up a few minutes later, along with Good Bird.

2. Pizza Delivery of Doom-Princess Vi's drawing sequence was hilarious, especially when she kept blowing her stack at everyone for dissing her sketches, and then when she started chasing the Big Cheese with her Naginata, I fell over laughing.

3. Pizza Bird Delivers-The first appearance of the Pizza Cats' ultimate armor, and the first bits of Bad Bird's transition to Good Bird were what made this ep. one of my faves.

4. The Nuclear Potato-Bad Bird starts reflecting on where he went wrong, and feels that he's let his father's legacy down, and, due to his being distracted, his train cart hits the bump at the end of the track, and he goes flying into the wall. Priceless.

5. Underground, Underwater, Undercooked-Bad Bird makes the mistake of ticking Lucille off not once, but TWICE  :O, and both times, he and his Ninja Crows get blasted. Also, Cheese's ranting at the end of this one before he blows up is one of the funniest.

"There's supposed to be a mattress here!" LOL! :D classic!

Yeah, I was laughing so hard, my sides were hurting. That ep. in which Speedy mistakes BB's rear for Polly's, and Polly responds by belting him, is priceless as well. She likes him, but she's not gonna let him get away with feeling her up. That's what makes Polly my 2nd fave Pizza Cat, next to Speedy. She's tough, brave, and doesn't let anyone get in her way.

I also liked "Son of Big Cheese", where, at the end, Princess Vi kicks Cheese off the Council until he gets all the laundry done, and then, much to Jerry Atrick's relief, he stops himself short of blowing up, saying "I'm too tired for my usual tantrum."

Another fave, "Let the Cellar Beware"-After Speedy wrecks the robot that had been chasing him and Princess Vi all over the underground of the Palace, Vi confronts Big Cheese about it, and he saves his skin by lying about it and saying it was meant to be part of a new amusement park for her, and she seems to agree and orders it done, and, as usual, Cheese goes into a tantrum and blows up. (I hope Jerry Atrick and the Ninja Crows have good health insurance..... :D

The funniest one you listed, IMO, was Cold and Crabby in Little Tokyo. Pizza Delivery of Doom was possibly my LEAST favorite episode in the entire series. :P

I'd say my personal favorite, as far as humor goes, is Candid Kitties, because of Bad Bird replacing the Metro-Goldwin Meyer lion. :P

Thank god for the "Delete" feature. I accidentally triple-posted.

That bit with Bad Bird replacing MGM's lion was priceless indeed.

You may not have liked 'Pizza Delivery of Doom', but I thought it was pretty funny, especially when Princess Vi starts chasing Cheese around with the naginata.

Oh, don't get me wrong. There were funny parts to PDoD, but overall, it was my least favorite episode. SPC is possibly the only series I've ever watched where there isn't a single episode that I hated. Even my favorite Western cartoon(Danny Phantom) had some craptastic episodes(*cough*BEAUTYMARKED*cough*. Seriously, that episode was pure GARBAGE.).

I know what you mean. Samurai Pizza Cats was a brilliant piece of animation, and it's a real shame that they don't make cartoons like that anymore.

Just got an old SPC video in the post. At last, I've found a favourite episode! 'Kind of a Drag'! :)

i might download that via torrent soon :D

Scratch my last post, my favourite episode (well, episodes) is now the 'Pizza Cats are Only Human' two-parter. I liked how they managed to keep the humour going even though things were looking bleak ('Who called my nose a banana?!' cackled the Big Cheese as he prepared to kill Speedy), and I LOVED the music that played during the Extra Topping Transformation. LOVED it to bits! :)

'Big Cheese Shows His Filmy Substance', 'No Talent Guido', and 'Princess Vi's Hippy Dippy Mom' are 3 of my other favorites, along with 'Wet and Wild Weekend'

I'm pretty sure I'd go with "Youth Is For Exploding," since the bomb puns make little sense and it also involves characters getting drunk.  I think.

I also like 'Let The Cellar Beware', and 'Don't You Know Sushi like I Know Sushi'

You know, if the blooming youtube video didn't screw up during the battle at the end, I would've said 'All you need is Love' is my new favourite episode. What I saw of it, though, was beautiful. Side-splitting humour and Bad Bird and Carla's scenes were so beautiful, I would've cried if it weren't for the narrator's shnide comments through-out...

I saw that episode after I downloaded it, and I agree, it's definitely one of the better episodes of Samurai Pizza Cats, especially the scenes with Bad Bird and Carla.
