these are all thing i heard about this anime but it really turned out to be just an over-hyped garbage, i have never been so disappointed, it really had the potential to be a masterpiece
THIS REVIEW CONTAINS MINOR SPOILERS
There are so many things wrong in this anime from story telling perspective and character development perspective
The biggest mistake is that this anime is an episodic anime, it really shouldn't have been that way
the reason being there is no overall plot, in the irrelevant episodes nothing adds to the story
let me make it more clear
In the anime "Violet Evergarden" the overall plot is learning about human emotion and in the last episode Violet is finally able to feel emotion so the anime being episodic makes sense, or
in the anime "Monster" it's about finding the root of evil so all those experiences the protagonist goes through will impact The decision the hero has to take so it's okay for it to be episodic
But in Cowboy bebop there is no overall plot, the last episode had nothing to do with the previous episodes, and the big problem is the confrontation between vicious and spike, it could have been 10000 times better, we know nothing about the villain, all we know is that spike was in a war with him a long time ago and we learn that with 2 second flashback that he has!
this is so awful, the villain is literally apparent through the entire series for about 5 minute!
who the hell is he? why Faye was so scared of him? why everyone keep saying he is colder than ice? we NEVER see anything from him to believe he is the cruelest of them all
There is also a problem with character development and characters themselves, who in the world thought making a retarded kid whose legs and hands move randomly a main character, is a good idea? i can not stand that fucking kid, the most annoying character i've ever seen, i hope she suffers in that desert
the next badly written character is Julia; the girl, the woman spike couldn't stop thinking about, the angelic demon, the demonic angel, surely we get to know about her personalit... don't waste your breath she only appears for about 5 minute
and i hate the opening song, it's probably the worst op i have ever listened to
In overall 20 minute of this anime is good and that 20 minute is good only because of the soundtrack!
just watch episode 5 and 26, those are the only good episodes
