Other than being Spike’s birth planet and home to his occasional safe space (Ana’s Bar in the live-action), it’s also home to his arch-nemesis, his
former lover and a beautiful cathedral. Conveniently located and expertly
terraformed because of its similar atmosphere to Earth makes it the perfect place for a swinging showdown. Ana’s Bar — Tharsis City The first commandment of Ana’s Bar is “differences die at the door. ” As the most visited jazz lounge in the solar system from all walks of life — celebrities, gangsters and corrupt cops — it makes sense to lay down some ground rules for this underground speakeasy. Fans of the anime will note the upgrade here from Anastasia’s Convenience Store, but, nevertheless, like the anime, it offers the troubled Spike a sort of respite and a place to learn about the Syndicate’s latest diabolical plans. The Cathedral Behold the old Syndicate stomping grounds for worship and unholy ass whoopings. This cathedral was made famous in the anime’s episode “Ballad of Fallen Angels” and re-created in the live-action episode “Supernova Symphony. ” It’s a shadowy place with loads of elegant stained glass ripe for breaking. You know, it would be a shame if two characters with a giant rivalry had to meet here for an epic showdown. Vicious’ Penthouse Never seen in the anime, Vicious’ lair adds a new dimension to the unwieldy villain. Luxurious and adorned with satin, silks and marble statues, it’s a tribute to the stylish madman.
