LOL south america has been defaced.

It was cool learning about what has happened to the earth, I was aquite curious about it since not much had been revealed about why so many people are in space/earth not really mentioned much in the earlier episodes in the show.

The rest of the episode was okay. I didn't even remotely expect Ed to be a girl either, Fey.. It seems like Ed could be a very annoying character but who knows, I may grow to like her somehow.

Great episode!!!

Lol Ed is such a troll!!! It seems she's a carefree hacker that hacks whenever she feels like it XD

Faye promised her to become part of Bebop and now she has to pay the price :P

I lol'd when they tried to escape, Ed suddenly hacked their vehicle and turned it around to pick her up!

Also screw you Funimation. Some of the scenes are still on DVD, it's jarring when i see the space battles in DVD animation, then quickly changes to BD in some scenes.

So stupid.

Can't wait for the next episode!

A more light hearted episode. A new character is introduced.

I like how the people in the curent time don't really know about Earth before Astral Gate accident. That's really cool.

This was an okay episode, but we're finally introduced to Ed! She's pretty cool, and I think she's gonna be a great addition to the crew. It'll make future episodes even more interesting :)

what was that snack that Jet bought from Earth? Like a Peep? I saw Macadamia Nuts written on the side of the box with some Japanese writing, though.

And why are people calling Ed a loli? Wouldnt that imply that she is an *attractive* little girl, not one mistaken as a boy?
The hacking seems very unlike hacking and more of a mental thing, though.

scene with spike annoyed at the end was funny.

The extra value of this episode lies in give us valuable information on the situational context in which the characters interact, but do not forget the underlying meaning and the further understanding of the characters inclinations. Finally he arrives Edward, making the cast much more varied and fun. Drawings, animations and OST, always excellent.

This episode really confused me on Ed's gender. The character looked young enough not go through puberty if Ed was a boy and I would not have thought Ed was a girl because of the name.

Ed finally! I didn't remember it being so long before she was introduced, I used to think she was a boy too lol.

But yeah, Ed is a very skilled hacker who likes to speak in third person which is quite amusing tbh.

Ed is cool!

Spike at the end being like there's only 3 things he can't stand - kids, dogs and girls with attitudes and now they have all 3 - yuup! LOL! He likes them really, especially Faye lol. Saying my dear and stuff lol.

I'm watching the dub and I love it! and lots of people say the dub is better than original. It's one of few shows they say that about. I love Spike's dub voice <3

Not a big fan of the new character. The satellite arc was pretty enjoyable though. Hopefully Ed gets some screen time that makes her enjoyable as a character.

This actor always seems to get to dub some badass characters. He played in the first Call of Duty as captain Foley and also in Phantom Brave: We Meet Again. Way to be a recognizable voice actor!

It's funny how the news anchor was glorifying the hackers. It makes me wonder how artificial intelligence will someday elicit such strong emotions, even loneliness. The communication between Edward and MPU was especially cute.

Favorite to least favorite thus far:
1. Ballad of Fallen Angels: 10
2. Asteroid Blues: 10
3. Waltz for Venus: 10
4. Jamming with Edward: 10
5. Gateway Shuffle: 9
6. Honky Tonk Woman: 9
7. Sympathy for the Devil: 8
8. Stray Dog Strut: 8
9. Heavy Metal Queen: 6

So, the final member of the crew is introduced, I'm hoping she won't be too annoying.

When they had the scene with the space lasers in the beginning, I thought they were about to go Ancient Aliens on us. Thankfully, the explanation made perfect sense.

They got a raw deal, I think the renegade computer should still count as a bounty.

Ed's a cool character and a wonderful hacker(with a mouthful of a name). The people though that she's a gay alienXD. If she's an alien, then I wonder what planets did Spike,Faye and Jet come from. Loved the big-ass smile doodled on South America lol

Feels great to hear Cats on Mars!

Eh, internet and hacking are both things I find extremely hard to like when introduced into any series. It's hard to make it interesting (I find it boring, just like it is IRL) and believable to a certain point, but still... I like the episode overall, even if I got a little bored with all the hacking stuff, the dialogue was pretty entertaining.
