Ok I finished Cowboy Bebop and overall I give it a Watch Samurai Champloo instead/10
Probly won't rewatch anything but the last 5 episodes.
I watched the 1st 20 episodes subbed and was bored af
I also noticed they changed some of words in the dub that IMO made the dialog more intersting and mature.
Also Faye in the hub was a 1-dimensional annoying cunt but in the sub she was much more bearable.
1/2

I'm an anime-enjoyer going waaay back, and even I couldn't get past episode 2. And I've tried 2 times before.
It won't get a 3rd go so your review pretty much chimes with my experience.
@UncleIroh @ugly_bastard_reborned
Good! Don't waste your precious time.
So many people called this the greatest anime of all time of all time so I was hype.
Also samurai champloo (My favorite anime) had the same director as bebop so I was hype.
I cannot express the depths of my disappointment when i slogged through this boring ass fake-deep slice of life anime.
@basedbagel @ugly_bastard_reborned
Honestly, comedy shounen is always the way to go whenever you need a palate cleanser.

There's even the odd redpill.
@UncleIroh @ugly_bastard_reborned
Nice and short!
I'll give a try and report back with my 1st impressions
@UncleIroh @ugly_bastard_reborned
I'm 1 episode in and I'm already more invested/entertained than I was for the entirety of Bebop.
@basedbagel @ugly_bastard_reborned
>the dub sucks
Welcome to anime. Watch with subtitles only. Good dubs are extremely rare.
@ButtWorldsMan @ugly_bastard_reborned
I'm not new to anime but I was told by trusted sources (reddit) that the Cowboy Bebop dub was one of the few dubs worth watching and BOY was I wrong lol that shit was ass
@basedbagel Try full metal Alchemist Brotherhood after Samurai Champloo
@VeganMGTOW Who knew a vegan could have such good taste in anime?
one of those is my favorite of all time.
Another is in my top 5
Did Spike die or only pass out in the last episode?
If you like slow plotlines Princess Tutu is really a scary horror series
but you have to make it to the end to see how scary it is
Karakuri Circus is even slower than Princess Tutu or cowboy bebop and it matters what order you watch it in although it might make more sense if you watch it out of order because they explain the plotline out of order
Yugi-oh is much slower than cowboy bebop
which yugi-oh? Exactly
Dragon ball z is probably much slower than cowboy bebop
Pokemon might have one of the slowest timelines of them all
I heard it took 20 years of episodes for Ash to become a pokemon master
Did Ash become a pokemon master, I do not know and I do not care
Monster Rancher is super fast timeline compared with everything else I listed
The person trapped in a video game reality wins the game completes it and escapes the video game not once but twice in the series so you divide the completion time for the series by two
"Did Ash become a pokemon master, I do not know and I do not care"
Exactly! They just want to sell toys and keep the $$ rolling in forgetting that some of us watch shows for the plot.
"If you like slow plotlines"
I don't like slow plotlines. I'm not a kid anymore and anime studios need to respect people with jobs and businesses to run.
"which yugi-oh? Exactly"
Ngl I liked Yugioh as a kid but you're right LOL
I don't have time to watch dbz.
Princess Tutu plot
Basicly there was a writer who whatever he wrote came true in real life
But he only liked Tragedies and not happy endings
So an entire town that kept experiencing bad things because of his writing killed him
But he wrote himself the power to continue doing so even after he dies
The main characters live in a ballet academy that seems like a boarding school in that town
They move like ballet dancers even when trying to survive hazards or attacks
@shortstories @VeganMGTOW SPOILER ALERT!!!
I'm pretty sure Spike died but because of the poor character development and random ass disjointed backstories I didn't really care.
@ugly_bastard_reborned
Pros:
Soundtrack was🔥
Animation holds up well
The fight scenes were great (Pierrot was my favorite)
Cons:
The show is slow AS HELL especially at the beginning. So slow I had to drop it and pick it up years later to finish it
Character backstories aren't as fleshed out well so I didn't care what happened to any of them.
There's no overarching storyline/plot so you could watch all episodes out of order and It wouldn't make a difference
The dub sucks
2/2
