hello all,
i've only watched the first few episodes of the og cowboy bebop and i've enjoyed it. my parents have been looking for show recommendations, but they are the people that will never give anime a chance. so, would the live action be sufficient enough of a story? by itself, not in comparison to the origina.
....and damn, I wanted more. I really enjoyed it and wanted to see more of Spike, Jet, Faye, & Ed
So in my yearly watch through I’m up to brainscratch and then I noticed something….maybe I said manifest too loud a few times that IG heard me and now my whole algorithm is ads for like meditation apps and other apps to help you awaken your quantim reality or whatever… it’s happening… the digital path to spiritual enlightenment…. Someone here gets it hopefully… omg lol
My favourite character is Faye if you couldn’t tell
I recently wrote an article on the idea of the cowboy bebop "genre" mentioned in the opening credits. I do feel like there is a methodology here, though it seems like the anime community and the film industry have never been able to break it down properly (do not mention the live fanfiction which Netflix released).
It's certainly difficult to gauge based off the show - what aspects of it are unique to that story, and what aspects are part of this universal "genre" Watanabe was talking about. But there is a deleted episode - Cowboy Bebop Mix-Mash - and it's an entire episode of Watanabe ranting about his philosophy on life and art, and I think this holds the key to defining what the work, which becomes a new genre in itself, truly is.
But I'm not the be-all and end-all in this conversation, and I wanted to get some fresh opinions.
What is the genre "Cowboy Bebop" to you?
I know I know I'm not that good but... I had this idea the second I saw this game. Finally got my hands on it after waiting for it before it launched & I gotta say I'm having a blast. It's the closest thing I've played to Samurai Champloo or similar Anime like Cowboy Bebop - Gunslinger - esque action!
I'm looking for more clothes to look like Mugen, I know they have them, but this is an RnG game so that's also a little tough.

Saw this at Barnes and Noble and had to snag it. It says it was the Ein addition so the records are brown and white.
I get to shoot matches with a lot of fun and interesting guns, but this one just made me happy. Also I won my Division (Production) with 5 Division stage wins, with a gun I've wanted since the first time I watched Ballad of Fallen Angels. Such a vibe, and so much fun. For a 35 year old gun, its still a damn good shooter.
I think she found her dad then was abandoned again and had to go back to the Bebop after Spike’s death. What do you think?
