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
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

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.

Honestly, comedy shounen is always the way to go whenever you need a palate cleanser.

There's even the odd redpill.

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.

>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 @ugly_bastard_reborned
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.
