absolutely nothing wrong with being a simple story enjoyer, some people are simple with music, some with story, some with games, there are entire aspects of various fictions that are just turn your brain down/off and enjoy. I love this show, but its does nothing mind bending, super complex, or even super new, its exceptionally well written, directed, acted, animated, sounded, and musiced, in a cool unique world, and sometime that's all you need, i think the time it came out in(1998) also helps as well.

People used to think we would progress a lot faster than we did lol To be fair technology was progressing leaps and bounds faster in the 90's than it is now. progress is still chugging along though

"These one shot adventures are super fun. I mean it's obvious they are kind of cheesy at the same time,[...]" True, but I think it gets away with the cheesiness because it is earnest. Every episode is full of homages to so many different things and is a love letter to everything it references. That's why it feels simultaneously packed with nostalgia and also feels timeless even when we might have never seen the original works it is drawing from for it's inspiration. The text blurb you see in the background everywhere in the credit sequences and in the mid-roll commercial breaks every episode I think really shows off this heartfelt spirit too: "The bounty hunters, who are gathering in the spaceship "BEBOP", will play freely without fear of risky things. They must create new dreams and films by breaking traditional styles. The work, which becomes a new genre itself, will be called... COWBOY BEBOP"
