So, you start with some fast paced jazz music action. Then you throw in some good old fashioned gun wielding and shooting. THEN, you throw in some bounty hunting and some good old illegal activities (drug smuggling and selling included of course). Finally, you throw in a Bad@$$ green haired gun wielding cowboy in a nice shirt, a huge hulking monster of a former police officer with a metal arm, a scar on his face, and reason to be ticked, a hot amnesiac babe with purple hair and a history of being frozen for several hundred years in cryostasis, and an eccentric red-headed tomboy girl who can hack any piece of technology that exists, their intelligence-enhanced dog, and of course, space ships and the rest of the universe, and what do you get? This;
Cowboy Bebop, a legendary anime with a great story line, amazing cast (pictured from left to right; Faye Valentine (foreground), Jet Black (background), Spike Spiegel (foreground), Ed and Ein (in Ed's arms)) great musical score, amazing animation, a short but amazing story (25 episodes), and of course, a MOVIE. You can look for it on Adult Swim (if they rerun the series AGAIN), or you can buy the series DVD box-set (pictured above). It's a great series, short and with plenty of twists and violence, as well as plenty of thought provokers and things you can relate to real life. I really recommend this to anyone, girl or boy, adult or teenager, any job or profession, and if you want to see a piece of the action, head to youtube or where ever and watch at least the first episode. I promise, if space cowboys and bounty hunting are your thing, you won't be disappointed. And don't think it's all violence, there's plenty of humor and even a few lighter hearted moments. So why not go check it out?
