Hahahaha best episode yet. Hilarious bits all the way through, and Andy was a funny character, I especially liked the way he became a samurai at the end. Plus his Engrish was legendary.

this is the best cowboy bebop episode for me!
andy is my favourite secondary character of the show! I like how both he and spike are so similiar in some ways and because of that they dislike each other. but secretly the two cowboys respect each other.
also andy is especially hilarious in japanese and spanish because of his american accent.

This ep deserves a 5 from me. The fight at the end and the Andy character were awesome! Loved how he was basically the anti-Spike and how they kept trying to one-up each other.

The funniest ep of the season.
And the bomber's monologue at the end was so thoughtful and topical.

It was funny, but Andy pissed me off more than anything else - I found myself wanting to cry when you heard his whistled tune O_O

I liked a lot of this episode, but it was hard to enjoy because Andy was so annoying. Yes he's similar to Spike in a lot of ways, but he's a completely unlikeable version of Spike.

Ah, so that's where the 'See you, space cowboy' came from...
My favourite CB episode, seriously. The fighting and chase scenes were impossibly good, and I loved Andy's random English xD Call me MUSASHI!

Andy is probably one of the strongest side characters, and although I assume maybe the drawing style is inspired from somewhere else or is a general style, it is 100% what Ladd Russo from Baccano seems to take the design from.

Funnier than even Mushroom Samba for me, this episode is just amazingDANGEROUS.
Elsewhere, a somewhat startled Warren Worthington III finds that he has accidentally wandered into an electrified east-side world of post-twist teens and watsui-ing teeny-boppers...

Definitely one of the top episodes of the show.
Andy & Spike were hilarious..Andy shared similar things with Spike but i think we all know that no one can take Spike's place. :3
"See You Space Samurai" xD!
5/5. absolutely for this one.

This episode has a huge problem, it's the ONLY ONE!

As far as raw entertainment goes, this episode is the greatest! Andy constantly troubling Spike; Nobody listening to the terrorist; Ein's random wig; Faye's priceless expressions; Jet being all love and peace, Spike losing to Andy and Andy admitting defeat when actually he wasn't hit a single time!

Just genius episode, and Bebop FINALLY got a fat bounty! Thanks for doing something right Faye!

See You Space Samurai :D

Andy was so retarded that he wasn't. Like being too cold that it isn't (you know what I mean, I apologise for lack of depth in that saying). Therefore Andy being so retarded he was likeable.

I actually think this is the best episode in bebop (for me so far), since it brought out the best in Spike. Lol at the two ignoring the villain of the episode.

Out of all the episodes so far, Andy had to be the best secondary character. Hilarious episode, and still very good, I'd have to give it a 5.

I had the same thought process while watching this episode, lol.

The funniest part of the episode is, in my opinion, when Spike goes to meet Teddy Bomber for the final time, but he is so fixated on spotting Andy that he completely ignores him. Couldn't stop laughing at that. The whole episode reminded me of something you'd see in Cromartie High School (which is definitely a good thing).

5/5 for this ep.

Aaahh, Jet as a hippy.

Haha, Spike’s expression after Andy says ”See you, space cowboy…”


Also, did feel a pang of sympathy for the bomber at the end. =(

This was a great episode: spaghetti western setting, great music, good comedy, Andy's character and the bomber monologue at the end.
Really a masterpiee in animation, I think I'll rewatch it soon.

Hahaa, I loved this episode.

I was thought to myself, "Aw man, Andy is hilarious and a great side character... wait, Spike is my favorite in this whole show and he acts a lot like him." And then the characters in the show started teasing Spike for him having the similar traits to Andy.

You usually see anime trying to diversify their cast as much as possible, and seeing them mirror a character makes this truly fantastic. That, and the literal take on a cowboy.

A bit of a silly episode, but definitely a fun one and one of the most unique of the entire show. The rivalry between Spike and the terrible rich-boy-turned-space-cowboy-bounty-hunter Andy was hilarious to see play out, but there were some great action scenes too. You felt bad for the bomber as he was always outshined and ignored by their rivalry, which was resolved really nicely - and amusingly - too. 8.5/10
