Finished it
Pretty good. Not on Bebop or Trigun level but its not supposed to be.
My personal cup of tea for anime is the “Cowboy Bebop” style where the plot gets darker and more serious towards the middle/end. Cannon Busters stays pretty light throughout even with some of the darker elements/revelations. Its a step above the Naruto level (tone wise) in my estimation.
I’d give this first season a solid 7.5/10 and will definitely watch a season 2. The brother who did this put together a very solid project.
Also I hope he CAKES off of merch. Philly and Sam are hella marketable
