Favorite Scenes: Green Bird
One of my very favorite anime series is Cowboy Bebop. It’s easily in my top 2 or 3.
But the funny thing about this series is that I was really luke warm about it at first. It didn’t really catch my interest until I saw this scene. This, I think, is one of the most beautiful scenes in anime. And it perfectly captures the feeling of the mind being assaulted by haunting memories of the past. The music, by Yoko Kanno is absolutely beautiful.
The rest of the series is very good too. It doesn’t quite live up to the promise of this single scene, but it’s still easily one of the best series out there. The ending is also similarly poetically beautiful, with extraordinary music, however, some I know come to despise the ending or find it unsatisfying. Keep that in mind should you choose to watch it. Personally, I love every aspect of this series. I highly highly recommend it.

Also, Bebop featured a great soundtrack. =)
I’ve seen some episodes on Cartoon Network but never the whole series…
The movie was way cool though!
This is the only anime series I have ever liked. The ending was one of the main reasons that I liked the series.
RYC: If you wanna see spam you should check out that Pulse again…
I mentioned my very brief, high school anime phase, right? Cowboy Bebop was the one series I saw all the way through (maybe because it’s the only one I came in contact with short enough to do so during said brief phase.) I have to say, even now, well after the phase has ended, it was pretty awesome. I’d even watch it again. And I really liked the ending, though I didn’t know it was the final episode when I first saw it. I was like, “What? How are they going to go on now?” Yes, I felt like a tard once I figured it out.
