Bull3tM0nk3y Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I've been watching it with my brother, and we're on the 3rd episode. We have some small jokes. "Guess who's gonna pay for that?" "Spike." "Seems like that." Discuss this show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gαr Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 One of, if not the, greatest anime ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HulkTySSJ2 Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 One of, if not the, greatest anime ever. Should easily be in EVERYONE'S FAV 5. Personally, I thought Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood was the best anime ever created as of right now, but who knows what the future holds. ...most people will just say Dragonball Z are something. Sure, it's a classic, but the storyline isn't is complicated or as serious as most adult anime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicο Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I dunno, I liked the first 2 episodes, but I have a feeling that if after a few months of not watching any more, and being interested in other anime enough to watch them instead, I don't think I like it all that much. I said the same thing about how I liked the first episode of Gintama, but it isn't interesting me enough compared to others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~Tico~ Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 I watched it on a whim some months back. It was very much a decision I will never regret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicο Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 skip to 5, backtrack later. Everyone should see it once.Thanks, but just someone saying that isn't really going to make me want to watch Still it, so I'm still not interested. I'm not really going to ever be if people keep saying things that can't be more than opinion like they're fact. Unlike the last post there.

Dr. Cakey Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 I've seen the first two episodes only, and I'm going to watch the rest...later. Possibly in March when I'm home for break. "Tank!" is pretty much the best song ever, but I'll reserve judgment on the show itself until I watch more of it. One thing has made itself readily apparent, however. Cowboy Bebop's dub is NOT very good. It's not awful or anything, and it's probably a bit above average, but it doesn't even equal its contemporary, Trigun, let alone the fantastic performances in more contemporary dubs like Fullmetal Alchemist, Code Geass, or the real king of dubs, Baccano. Again, it's not bad by any means, and it was probably good for its time, but by today's standards it's pretty lackluster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the voice acting, it sounds so cool... It seems like no one is ever happy with dubs on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Games Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Why are ppl stopping right before Faye's introduction? Admittedly 2 is a low point but come now... Addendum to earlier, skip to 5, then watch 6, then go back to the beginning. And not a good dub? Sorry, I dont agree with that at all. The main crew is absolutely solid and the rotating cast of supporting characters are decent. Steve Blum, carry me away with your voice! I like how you can go to just about any random episode and jump into the fun. The only 5 plot episodes being stellar in and of themselves. Also Tank isnt the only good thing about the soundtrack. Jazz and blues all over. Shame it's out of print. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicο Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 It's not that I was even bored. No, I should say, I didn't find it slow, so if I ever did start again I'm sure it would be very good, but idk. I do think the dub is good too though. From what I've seen.

Cute Rotten Yoshika Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 i think episode 2 is fine. i think all the episodes are good. and the dub work is incredible. if you think trigun is a better dub than cowboy bebop i honestly have to question that opinion because i feel it is absolutely not true. if youre having trouble watching it, my only suggestion is keep at it if you want as (with any series) it picks up by the middle. you absolutely dont have to though. no ones gonna hold it against you for not liking a thing. well, no one SHOULD and if they do ill beat em up.

The reason everyone considers "opinion" as fact, is because it's widely accepted as one of the greatest anime of all time. Hell, it's probably one of the best series of all time in general. In either case. You should watch it Or I'll come for you ._. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It apparently wasn't able to get proper showings in Japan until later, but I don't tend to have as much interest in that kind of thing as others do. See, people have different tastes. Maybe I should watch it, but if I'm enjoying whatever else I'm doing, I'm pretty sure I should do that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Yeah, this anime's top-notch. It's one of those rare episodic anime that I actually liked marathoning because the characters, music, and especially the fluid action and animation engaged me entirely. The latter's an even greater feat considering the time it was made. And Spike's coolness personified. Steve Blum's voicing is icing on the cake. It actually had a decent movie too. Overall, definitely one of the better titles out there and it could make for a good gateway anime for anyone who's curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like no one is ever happy with dubs on here. It's not dubs I have a problem with. Well, I do prefer subs pretty much all the time, but there are good dubs. There are great dubs. There are perfect dubs. Bebop's dub might be the first, but not the second or third. Trigun has a good dub. Evangelion has a good dub. Fullmetal Alchemist and FMA: Brotherhood have great dubs. Code Geass has a great dub. Gundam 00 has a great dub. Rebuild of Evangelion has a great dub. And Baccano! has a perfect dub. Cowboy Bebop's dub is considered as good as it is because 1) people like the show, 2) they saw it dubbed (first), and 3) they saw it at an impressionable age.

Just Crouton Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Watched it in 8th grade, back when Adult Swim's anime lineup was awesome, and had shows like Gundam 0083. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bull3tM0nk3y Posted February 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 Just got around to watching Episode 4. Had to go back a few seconds with my brother so he could show me that the show was saying about how: SPOILERS HI-LIGHT THE FOLLOWING TEXT: It was showing that what Faye was holding was a virus.
