sympathy for the devil which features the best VA of the series. i've always loved it too but for whatever reason it doesn't get focused on much

same VA was toboe in wolf's rain just an amazing voice. here's the best scene in wolf's rain by a mile
Adult Swim really ran Bebop and Trigun together.
We weren't meant for that kind of space cowboy kino.
there was a brief period of time when the weekday schedule was >10 cowboy bebop >cowboy bebop >11 trigun >trigun
on weekdays! knew that type of magic wouldn't last was only for like a month and a half they did it probably around 2005-2006
Just finished watching this television show last night. Overall loved it, however some of the villain of the week episodes felt a bit weak, and sometimes there's a poor balance in tone between seriousness themes and le whacky Japanese humour. Also Jet should have scored with Pao's daughter
>there will never be another Japanimation as good as this
We should execute every artist who draws those disgusting moe blobs, maybe then we'll get kino again.
You pick "Military experiment soldier gone wrong" in a story who's main antagonist is a soldier who helped out the military with some messed up shit and that featured a character who was experimented on until they looked like a woman, and not the out of nowhere Alien Reference that no joke is the result of some lobster left in a fridge?
God, its crazy how every episode is so good in its own way and revisiting them gets me appreciating each one.
Heavy Metal Queen is by far my favorite, but Mushroom Samba is a close second just for this one song with the chase scene https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmIsNpDimQ0
OH that's why it looks weird. Did they do that on purpose to give it a creepier vibe or did they just get new computers towards the end and wanted to play with them?
There's a piece of music which plays (I think it's during his "conditioning"), it's basically just a piece of drone. I'd have to watch it again but teenage me formed a theory that it was directly inspired by the second "drone" track on Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon.
this episode (Episode 20 "Pierrot le Fou") would have made perfect sense if it happened right after Edward leaves the Bebop (Episode 24 "Hard Luck Woman"). It's just out of place completely, cause the series go back to happy-go-lucky as soon as the episode is over. The tonal shift to dark and serious should have been coordinated with Edward's departure. "Pierrot le Fou" airing right before "The Real Folk Blues" would have shown a shift in Spike's character, to being a lot less cautious; almost suicidal and driven to kill his enemies.
>dbz >cowboy bebop >gits
endless hubris to think those could ever work in terms of the visuals. would take like $900M in CGI alone to make DBZ fights look good considering how high the audience's expectations are at this point. but just watch they'll give us another stylistic one like akira instead of trigun which would translate beautifully
The ending where the assassin is crying for his mom with the circus music playing surrounded by all the infantile theme park stuff just gets to something deep inside of me. It's unnerving, but also incredibly sad in a weirdly primal way.
Holy frick, I thought I was the only one who felt this. My theory is it reminds us when we got lost from our parents in a big public place when we were kids except our parents eventually found us. In this guy's case his parents are long dead, nobody cares about him, and he is in very real danger. It hits you in the childhood, your inner child feels bad for him.
funny you should mention that because the sopranos has an opening scene (s02e10) in a mall where tony hears a kid crying and we get a flashback to the previous episode where someone was killed
Yeah, i don't mind filler or monster of the week episodes. People hate episodic series now for some reason, i'd blame Netflix with their binge focus for that.
the circus music was creepy, great eisode
kino
This, mushroom samba and heavy metal queen are all episodes of the same series. That's just neat.
Maybe my favorite episode of the series
best episode was with the weird serial murderer manchild

yea that was a pretty good one
I love when a series has a weird ass episode like this, especially when it's horror in a non-horror series.
>horror
I think you are confusing it for toys in the attic, which is also my favourite episode.

this one is not weird compared to some other episodes
raus kankermongol
weak bait

the show was so bad
movie was okay though
>gordy from ned's declassified voiced volaju in the dub
absolutely BASED
>its a Joker ripoff episode
>its a homosexual anon talkling absolutely nonsense
This and the forgotten lobster fungus episode are the ones that come to mind when I think of this series.

has their nation of origin ever again managed that level of concurrent kino
For me? It's Black Dog Serenade. Jet is the fricking man.

there was just something special about this one. memorable
Why do people always say that episode is the weirdest and less on the mood of the show but not the one with the fridge monster?
I liked that episode actually.
Hello, boy
>no praise for brain scratch
its fricking kino and deserves its spot as the last episode before the final conclusion with vicious
>brain scratch
had such a sad sad ending
?t=1196
I never liked this episode cause it was animated entirely digital and looks uglier compared to the rest of the series.
OH that's why it looks weird. Did they do that on purpose to give it a creepier vibe or did they just get new computers towards the end and wanted to play with them?
I think it fits the tone they went for, as if everything was filtered through the eyes of the psycho.
grow up, it adds to the otherworldliness of the episode and villain
still my favorite episode

Kys, srsly
go home tourist
Currently rewatching the animes from my childhood. Making my way through Bebop now. Next is Stand Alone Complex and then Champloo.
SaC isn't really worth the rewatch. You will fall asleep.
There's a piece of music which plays (I think it's during his "conditioning"), it's basically just a piece of drone. I'd have to watch it again but teenage me formed a theory that it was directly inspired by the second "drone" track on Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon.

why did they think it would be possible to port such a stylized anime into a live action show?
There are still thousands of spunky redheaded actresses who could do a role like this. Just no performatively trans ones. They screwed themselves

>cowboy bebop
>gits

Literally only episode I watch of Bebop because it's perfect. And why everyone should try anime, also pink floyed is in the flashback
The lighting in that episode was like the Batman TAS
The ending where the assassin is crying for his mom with the circus music playing surrounded by all the infantile theme park stuff just gets to something deep inside of me. It's unnerving, but also incredibly sad in a weirdly primal way.
like penguin's death in batman returns

yeah the "tough guy goes out crying for his mommy" trope is a great one, gets to me too

The standalone eps are always nice, like they used to do with the X-Files
Yeah, i don't mind filler or monster of the week episodes. People hate episodic series now for some reason, i'd blame Netflix with their binge focus for that.
The flashback montage is pretty good.
