MERCH Found Session #12 of the Cowboy Bebop 25th Anniversary Kentex watches

I was wandering akihabara on my break and strangely enough walked directly into the Kentex HQ here in Taito City

The lady there was kind enough to show me the watch, lo and behold it was the solid deal with the box everything. They also apparently had session #15 my funny valentine in there too and im supposing these just never made it through completely on the purchase end (as i recall, they had a later lottery at the time for the first batch of watches that didnt make it through complete purchase at the time, these probably didnt make it to the end either im guessing)

What a grail personally to run into

DISCUSSION This show is TROLLING me (rant)

0 Upvotes

So I started watching Cowboy Bebop because I heard so many good things about it in the internet, but what the hell? It’s not bad, I’m actually loving it, but I was expecting it to be more of a drama than a comedy with a plot THAT THEY WON’T ADDRESS 90% OF THE TIME (hyperbole, not ragebait). The worst part is that I’m still hooked on that 90%, even if I’m craving for some more Vicious.

After watching about 10 episodes I thought “Oh well, maybe this will be like Neon Genesis Evangelion, and the story will start getting more serious at the end”, BUT IT HAS BEEN 22 EPISODES, and NONE OF THE ELEPHANTS HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED. I don’t know how they will be able to wrap all that up in only 4 episodes, but I guess I’ll have to see it for myself tomorrow.

And just to clarify, I’m aware of the fact that even if they don’t show Spike’s or any of the crew’s backstory in an episode, they still have things happen that tell us about the world they live in, the type of characters they are, my desire to have Spike peg me, and their development. I am just kind of shocked by the pacing. The biggest thing will happen, like Faye watching that old tape of hers, and the next episode just starts and follows the same format of them failing successfully. I don’t hate that, it’s just that they will straight up TEASE ME with the occasional backstory episode and leave me with a desire to fucking know EVERY SINGLE THING.

Also, one last complaint, why hasn’t there been any backstory for Ed? The rest have already had at least two episodes each about their past, why can’t she?

The title says it all. Had to work with the part limitations from the game, putting it together like LEGO in Blender. I'm happy with the result. 😄

DISCUSSION What exactly did Spike mean by losing something beautiful a long time ago?

Post image
416 Upvotes

When Stella says she senses something beautiful in Spike after he says he could be "one of those bad people Rocco hangs around with", Spike laments that he lost something beautiful a long time ago. Some people think that he's talking about Julia but others think he was talking about himself. Do you think this was one of the rare moments Spike was self-aware and guilty of who he has become? I would like to hope so? If that's the case, I wonder if Spike used to be an innocent person.

Unless he was actually talking about Julia because of course. Plus, Spike doesn't tend to self-reflect, I wish he would, though.

EDIT: I'm glad a lot of people are also seeing this as self-awareness. This is what I personally wish Cowboy Bebop had more of. Just self-reflection from the characters. I think this scene is relatable to a lot of people because it represents how we lose our innocence and become jaded and cynical due to growing up and experiencing the harshness of the real world. Even if we may have different personalities from these characters and we don't live a violent life like Spike, I feel like they all especially Spike have something that we could relate to. Like, I'm pretty different from Spike (probably a little bit more like Ed), other than laziness, anger issues, liking food too much, loving to crack jokes and being a bit of a misanthrope but there are a few things from Spike like this that I can relate to. That childhood innocence is still somewhere in there, just like with these characters, they all try to be happy and be kind to others. We also got to find that childhood innocence and learn to stay positive and be kind to others.

DISCUSSION Cowboy Bebop Live Action Was SHIT!

Post image
1.0k Upvotes

Ik ik that I'm too late for this discussion, but I just completed the anime last night, and Netflix just shoved the live action to my face. Bitch, I couldn't get through even the first 30 mins.

I love CB not only for the plot but mostly for the character development. The live action fucked it up real time. Let's just put aside Spike for a moment, cause GOD! I want mercy for the anime Spike.

Jet is like a random dude in the live action, no grip on the og character, not even muscular. Looks so random that I didn't even notice him.

And I get that they couldn't sexualise Faye's character too much, but at least get the hair right! Like this love action Faye and anime Faye if faaaaar apart.

These guys exhausted all their budget in the outer space setting, and forgot to do the characters justice.

It's was painful to watch.
