spyrocoot said: Zergneedsfood said: He doesn't hang around here anymore, but I think Yakub's review is mostly spot on. People should probably say his review was helpful for the simple fact he does a good job of deconstructing Cowboy Bebop into its pieces and being pretty fair and objective with his review. You're a smart guy. |

| I thought it was pretty good but only ended up giving it an 8, just not my type of show I guess |

BlackSabotage said: You're a smart guy. Thanks man =D Zergneedsfood said: I think that's why I consider his Cowboy Bebop review to be the best of his reviews. I really do think he gives the anime a much more fair and objective evaluation than some of the other more provocative reviews that he's written that I don't think where up to par. I guess I just agree with him that solid audiovisuals does not make a masterpiece, and I personally could not get into Bebop for a lot of the reasons other people ascribe to it. But again, as I said at the beginning of this thread, this could very well just be the fact that I dislike Watanabe's anime. And thanks. I try my best. >< As someone that's watched it all through twice I can perfectly understand why it may not be everyone's cup of tea, even if I disagree with your assessment that it's only solid audiovisuals. I just think Yakub is given more credit than he deserves, and unlike MahoganyCow or SchrodingersMatt his reviews aren't made in the spirit of helping which pisses me off a little. |

| I liked it. If you don't like an episodic anime you'll probably fucking hate it. |

High_Five_Ghost said: When I watched it I felt so underwhelmed by it. I love Steven Blum. I love Shinichirō Watanabe's other work (Samurai Champloo is one of my favourite anime and Kids on the Slope got me into jazz). I love the soundtrack. But I went in expecting the greatest anime of all time because that was what everyone called it. I guess my expectations were too high. It really wasn't bad but I felt so underwhelmed by the story and the ending. Did anyone else feel this way? I'm probably in the minority because I've never seen anyone give it a score lower than 9. I gave it a much lower score and I agree that it's overrated. Relying too much on the visuals, instead of plot and well-developed characters was a major disappointment for me. The animation is the last thing I consider when judging a show, even though I don't neglect it either. But I can understand an high rating, if you can forget everything besides the visuals. |

| Cowboy Bebop wasn't particularly bad but I just don't like episodic anime in general. I also thought the dubbed version was decent (this is coming from a person that watches subbed anime 99.9% of the time) |

| No you are not the only one. Bebop is easily one of the worst anime I've ever seen and I still don't understand how anyone can give it a 10/10 rating. |

| I didn't think Bebop was bad, I saw it on the tube when it aired before Inuyasha, at 4am. But i never took time to finish the series. As far as episodial anime goes, i'm extremely picky. |

| Op's thought's: Ow shit i didn't see whats is so great about Bebob. Need to find people fast to drop this anime down even more right now! All i can say is, you don't have to like it and rewatch it probably won't change it. But people who did gave it a 10 and have it in there top 5 know that it is a shame for people to never truly feel this very special master piece. Bebop isn't a master piece by the book. But 10 raters know it is just one of those view classics that just feels like a legend piece of work. Some classics you just need to feel and this anime is not made for all kinds of people so some would never feel it. Which is a shame for those guys that they are missing something this good. But you know different taste and all can't be helped. For me Bebop is still the number one on anime ground. Like LOTR is in the movie business. In the end it is all about how deep it can touch you. Where FMAB was good in it's overall. Bebob carved really deep in my hart. I don't know how to explain it otherwise. It's like animating your most beautiful dream and have it end up just like you imagined, like when you watch it you get the same feel when you dreamed it. And dreams don't go by the book. |

| I don't care about it. Especially when people, uh, bring it into points like "you haven't watched anine praised for its substance such as cowboy bepop and whatnot. Watch them first before you complain about other shows." Such arguments actually drive me away from even watching said things. |

| What frustrated me was the fact that it was episodic.... I would've preferred a more cohesive storyline. BUT, that didn't change the fact that I loved the characters, the setting, the music, and the fact that it was an anime that was not in a fucking Japanese Highschool. I gave it a solid 8/10 |
