Immediately subscribed to patreon when I found out you were reacting to Cowboy Bebop. I still listen to songs from this OST to this day.

Avalon

Oh btw since you like rivals so much. Spike’s VA, Steve Blum, is Wolverine. He plays him in almost every animated depiction of the character

Red Menace

also as to the soundtrack, if anything it gets better

Red Menace

love the 3 episode release format lol, watching the violet evergarden reaction at the same time and need something to fix the broken heart lol, also REMEMBER THE MOVIE the cowboy beebop movie should be watched between episodes 22 and 23, ill repost on teh break glass, and teh first ep, and ep 22 to remind lol

SimplySora

What an experience! This is SO fun

Brendan Coen

I’m so excited!

Don't blame you for that. The world was so good. Was too short

Trowa

Okay fair point. I think i just wanted more especially cause the world building was interesting but it was short.

Trowa

Triguns pacing is b a d. It takes forever to go anywhere. Its really aged and feels it and sometimes things just dont go anywhere. I love old Trigun with all my heart but it drags along terribly. Im not totally all in for the new Trigun but it fixes so many issues with og.

Layman's Outlook

It does finish, just a bit open ended, which I don't mind. Still great though.

Trowa

So sad that show ultimately just never finishes. Love it.

SKAOG

I agree, main cast seems fine, but definitely prefer sub background characters over dub like in the first episode.

SKAOG

I haven't watched this show before, but was put off by the starting English dialogue. So I decided to check out the sub, and prefer it much more, especially since old Joseph Joestar's VA voices the Jet, and MC is voiced by another character that i like.

Avalon

It’s a raunchy comedy with boobs and sex appeal. Seem like DAD level to me

Sprucefer

Is there a reason space dandy wouldn't be able to replace this show on this tier?

Sprucefer

Main cast is consistently pretty great but a lot of the side characters can sound really silly throughout the show imo

Trowa

Cowboy Bebop IS its music. It presents the cultural aspects and the world through its music. Every important moment has a sound and every world a musical landscape. The world of Bebop is so culturally diverse and expansive and each place and person will have an identity represented through music. I love Bebop a lot for ultimately being a rather somber show. To not ramble into spoilers i will say the really just human way these characters interact with not only each other but the world like its a character itself had always inspired me as a writer.

Cody

First Charlie Parker reference in anime coming from Cowboy BEBOP…. Must be a coincidence 🤷‍♂️

Cswerve

Space Dandy is soooo good

Nick K

To me this was the inevitable reaction for this channel. A matter of when, not if. It's like your anime pilgrimage Tony.

AntonJ0™

The Big Shot horn at the start has been my notification sound for years. SHUCKS HOWDY

AsbestosDust

Why do you think so?

peeps

Haven't watched this show since I started watching anime well over a decade ago and god damn it is so nostalgic. While I'm of the unpopular opinion that Cowboy Bebop isn't this director's (Shinichirou Watanabe) best show, it's definitely still a super fun watch. And for anyone wondering, I wholeheartedly believe Space Dandy is by far the best Shinichirou Watanabe show, followed honestly probably by Kids on the Slope. Bebop is a close third though for sure.

peeps

I quite enjoyed Carole and Tuesday but it's definitely near the bottom of the list when it comes to Shinichirou Watanabe shows. Space Dandy on the other hand is one of my favorite shows of all time and as much as I love shows like Cowboy Bebop and Kids on the Slope (and all of his other shows honestly), Space Dandy is without a doubt my favorite Shinichirou Watanabe show and it's not even close. I would absolutely love to see Space Dandy on the D.A.D tier eventually.

Kevin Dong

If you like this, I think you would like Black Lagoon.

Unbeknownst Man

1.- This Les Claypool is awesome as well, but he's not the one from Primus. 2.- Turtle = Water Tortoise = Land (Had to learn it when buying a pet for my son) Awesome video, mate! Already looking forward to the next episodes, AND the movie!

James

Cowboy Bebop is a childhood favorite of mine, and hopefully someday you’ll check out other 90s seinen anime such as Neon Evangelion Genesis and Ghost in the Shell.

Jet Man

Every time GitS:SAC is mentioned in this community, a spark of joy is born in my soul. It whispers in my ghost.

Avalon

When it’s finished

Red Menace

oof, just oof, so good, this used to be the DEFACTO #1 recommend when someone asked what should i watch if i want to get into anime, and you can see why, also everyone who pays attention knew that the soundtrack was hook line and sinker for tony

DMV Makoto

Yoko Kanno is who was responsible for the music for this series. She also did the music for another great series Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex (GiTSAC). Highly recommend listening if you like her work.

Belac

As good as the dub is, I like the sub a lot better. The dub sounds like a middle school stage play sometimes

Isaac Noël

Cowboy Bebop kicks ass. Glad you're enjoying it Tony. This was one of my first ever anime

Red Menace

is he stopping konosuba

Jet Man

The director for this series is the same director for Kids on the Slope. The jazz connection makes a lot of sense.

Cameron Sunken

Still one of the greatest anime to ever be released in my opinion

Avalon

There are two other anime by this creator in this universe. A hilarious comedy called Space Dandy which should 100% be on the replacement poll for Konosuba, and a very (imo) meh slice of life story about two Martian girls doing American idol basically. The music is over produced and the show is melodrama so I can’t recommend it, but Space Dandy 10000%

Clayton Odom

Something about that old school, hand drawn, mecha/sci fi vibe always hits me hard. Cowboy Bebop was one of the first things that truly made me fall in love with anime when I was in high school back in 01. "Real Folk Blues" is one of those songs that just brings nothing but nostalgia and emotion anytime I hear it. Going to be a fun, fun ride.

JoeyGuy7

Of course it doesn't have a super deep mind bending plot, but who cares, its stylish Sci fi fun and a feast for the eyes and (especially) ears

JoeyGuy7

Yea I've been coming across as a boomer, I actually like a ton of modern shows, I think we are actually in kind of a golden age, especially compared to the 2010s

Jet Man

Aint no beef in the bell peppers 🫑

Fuji Nami

I love Trigun (1998) dearly but there is absolutely no way he's going to like that. I don't even know if he can stomach Badlands Rumble. Trigun 2023 tho. Controversial

Hermit

Cowboy Bebop is really consistent all the way through, I can only think of maybe one or two episodes that I didn't like but the music and the visuals never failed

makotheQ60

Right overlord is cooked

Fuji Nami

Yeah, animation hasn't gotten better it just changed. I like retro animation better but modern osts and the quantity we get now are superior. Like I used to be able to watch every single anime year by year and now that's impossible. Sadly however the amount of 'good' anime per year hasn't changed (like 1 or 2).

Fuji Nami

I can't believe we're comparing Cowboy Bebop to Overlord. I try not to be a snob but I mean come on! lol

Derek

Good memories of watching this on Adult Swim as a kid.

DrumRollTony

Yeaaa that's a good point

JoeyGuy7

OK last thing about how great old anime is. We didn't need 30 minutes of dialouge with still frames to explain the setting plot and characters, you just know what you need to know by watching. "Show don't tell" is missing from most shows these days

makotheQ60

God I love Steve Blum's cool voice he definitely brings Spike to life

AsbestosDust

If you're liking cowboy bebop, I hope you will consider Trigun in the future, both are classics

JoeyGuy7

And the hand drawn backgrounds, nothing looks like this anymore man, I love it

JoeyGuy7

90s cel animation is sooo classic, I'm glad we are finally watching a show from this era. I just love how Sci fi ship panels etc look in this style

Owari

Yeah he's gonna love this one lol

Layman's Outlook

Yeah the soundtrack creates a real unique environment for the episodes. Same person does music for a show called Darker than black, a show which I think you might like, bit on the darker side and older with good animation. Also dub is good if I remember correctly.
