Ok episode. The hyperspace thing was kind of cool.

I've heard that this was the best English dub ever, but so far it doesn't seem to be all it's cracked up to be. I don't hate it or anything, but it just doesn't get me excited and make me always want to watch the next episode. Hopefully it'll get better.

Feeling the same way as Jo53ph. I was told this show is of legendary status and I've been watching all through the strength of that hype. It's not a terrible show at all, it's kinda of entertaining, but hopefully I can see soon what all the hoopla is about.

so Faye didn't get invited to join.. she invited herself and just like that shes finally one of them! well it seems so. Anyway I can't help but be reminded of Gintama and Space Dandy... they do a lot of work but they always blunder and in the end they don't get payed... hahah damn

If one pauses to think about it, the virus-drug sure is something. Modifying a person's DNA into one of a monkey's - technically, it means modifying every single cell present in the human body, that which is worth trillions. THAT ending sure implied something. At least Faye served as eye candy to Spike!

Great episode!

Man the look at Faye's face when she thought the missile suddenly turned to miniature rockets XD

So I guess Faye officially joins the gang? Awesome!

I hope to see more progress on the story this time around! I hope for big pay day for Spike and Jet as well as Faye! :)

Can't wait for the next episode!

At this point I wonder if they will ever make any money. Something always happens. lol

That person is a lady? She looks more like a guy to me.

Faye joins! I wonder if anyone more people will join.

I gues those people are stuck in hyperspace now. Also they turned into monkeys now. They didn't show it but I wanted to see them as monkeys.

Good think Spike didn't break the virus container. I'm surprised the lady didn't scream when he was about to shoot it haha.

I'm also surprised they didn't keep a closer eye out for Faye this time around! Poor Ein haha. And how do you gamble 60m away so easily :O

Although self-contained, the episode manages to stand well on its legs, thanks to its strengths and also quite charismatic secondary characters. It closes the circle, the usual OST who dresses like a tailored suit, the narrative.

Episode 1-4 are the episodes I hate the most. Spike misses so many vital clues that I almost ripped myself a bald spot. Also, there's a $6,000,000 bounty on Faye yet they didn't even decide to turn her in at the end of the episode like they planned to. Why?

If you say that Spike senses great teamwork then I call bullshit as she did nothing so far.

Not really doing much for me so far, Spike and Jet are just habitual failures at this point and every episode ending with them conveniently not getting any money is tiresome.

Wtf? How is them not getting money convenient?
It is mostly episodic so if you can't get past that then just move on to another show.

What I mean there is always convenient reasons for them failing like something always prevents them from actually being successful bounty hunters, Personally its going to be hard to deal with if they continue to fail for another 22 episodes as the skill set of the protags seems too good for them to have no success.

No need to get grouchy by the way, I do want to watch the show and I'm allowed to have my own opinion.

Have your own opinion or whatever but the show is not about them trying to succeed at becoming rich and beloved bounty hunters, they don't really care. It's a way to make enough money to go on, that's it. I see comments talking about Faye so they already have been to the casino therefore you can already guess from the way Spike throws away all those chips that he doesn't care about money and that if they are really needed they can make them.

It was just a suggestion, if you are looking for a show where the main character tries to succeed and achieve a goal, Cowboy Bebop is not that show.

I'm glad Faye joined them, it's fun seeing her with them!!!

That monkey business retrovirus was a weird thing and the whole eco warriors concept of this episode is, strange but sort of, of the time - it gets my goat LOL! nah, but kinda. It was a crazy evil plan!

Good thing that Spike and Faye got out of hyperspace and nice she offered to save him, I think she has a crush on him tbh lol. I honestly don't blame her, how can ya not? I mean look at him? lol.
