Right Stuf explains the anime:
Yoshiokas Uchū Ichi no Musekinin Otoko (The Most Irresponsible Man in Space) novels motivated The Irresponsible Captain Tylor television anime in 1993, as well as a 10-episode OAV series that ran from 1994 to 1996. Right Stuf offered the original tv anime in private VHS and DVDs from 1998-2005, and also offered the OAV on DVD in 2001. Right Stuf re-released the series and OVA on DVD in 2009, and once again in 2013.
Yoshiokas books inspired a new spinoff tv anime entitled The Irresponsible Galaxy Tylor (Musekinin Galaxy Tylor). The series premiered in July 2017, and Crunchyroll streamed the anime as it aired.
The television anime of Amahara and mashas Interspecies Reviewers (Ishuzoku Reviewers) manga premiered in Japan on January 11, and aired 12 episodes.
Funimation eliminated the series from its streaming service on January 31, specifying, “After careful factor to consider, we figured out that this series falls outside of our standards.” The company specified it decided to remove the series altogether rather of altering the content. Amazon Prime Video got rid of both the English-dubbed and English-subtitled versions of the anime in the very first week of February.
