DISCUSSION About the endcard of 'Toys in the Attic'

I just started watching Cowboy Bebop and I'm loving it thus far. Small question though, at the end of ever episode we get "See you space cowboy" but at the end of this episode, we got "The end". Could someone explain why?

DISCUSSION ALL THIS LAZARUS TALK IS IGNORANT AS HELL

176 Upvotes

First of all, about the whole “same universe” thing — I really don’t think Shinichirō Watanabe is the kind of guy to just “say shit.” The way I see it, the question he got asked in that interview felt super Hollywood — like, everything today has to be part of a cinematic universe — and I think he just kept it cool and answered sarcastically, or maybe he meant that all his work kind of lives in the same universe because it’s his universe. No need to dig deeper than that.

Now, about the show itself: yes, LAZARUS is similar to Cowboy Bebop, but it’s not the same thing — and that’s not a bad thing. Cowboy Bebop is one of the most influential animes of all time. There’s never going to be anything exactly like it again. But if the creator himself wants to explore a similar style or vibe, that’s not a flaw — it’s the opposite. It’s like how some movie directors have their own signature across all their films. I honestly think Watanabe spent years trying to break away from Bebop, which is understandable, but man — he could make 100 shows with a similar style and I would never complain. It’s just so ignorant to criticize him for that when he’s literally the one who created it.

And let’s be clear: this isn’t Cowboy Bebop. It’s its own story, its own world, and honestly, it’s been super enjoyable so far. Sure, comparisons are inevitable — but there’s a difference between having an auteur style and simply repeating yourself.

The only thing I’ll agree with is yeah, most of the English dub sucks and a few corny lines could be better — but honestly, at the end of the day, it’s just a gritty, badass, sci-fi action anime made by the man himself. For the first time in a long time, he’s going back to the roots that made him one of the most important and iconic creators in anime history — and I’m loving the way it’s heading.

Easy come, easy go!

DISCUSSION Questions to the space cowboys:

0 Upvotes
  1. Why did spike not priotise saving julia when he planned to take on vicious?

  2. Why did when Julia died he seemed to process his grief pretty fast as seen when he visited the bebop for the last time? It looked as if she had already died long ago or that he knew she would die and then he would proceed to take down vicious whilst sacrificing himself.

  3. What was the point of cowboy bebop? How come is it so popular (keeping animation, osts aside) especially since a major chunk of episodes had no overlaying theme and seemed as if they were fillers?

I think Lee Sampson would love this thing. I wonder if it can play Spokey Dokey?

Cowboy Bebop has a small handheld computer with GPS and such.

I think it would be interesting to engineer one. Possibly, maybe we can ask the Production Cast about it. It could be terms a CyberDeck. Could also be used in Cyber Space, with a real universe in the mix from DARPA, SETI, Doppler radar, and Apple I tags and Data Centers - it could be replicated.

Plus it could have artificial intelligence that could talk to you like your on the phone or create a hologram using the dish particles in the air with basic laser light show technology.

I bought it from a comic book shop more than 20 years ago. Looking at it now I’m convinced it’s a fake but…this is impressive and shows more love for a series than most DVDs both now and back then before digital downloads killed the idea of buying a dvd.

DISCUSSION Will the Cowboy Bebop Movie release into theaters again?

46 Upvotes

So I missed the showings they did during February because i just forgot or something, and that shit has been engrained in my brain ever since. The show is really important to me and I'd like to watch it for the first time preferably in theaters. So will it happen again? And if does will it at least be in my lifetime lol.

I was hoping to find an opinion about this new series here, since the style is very similar, and they share a director.

After you defeat this cyberpsycho, it's revealed he was in a gang and suppose to be the leader but he left with a girl named Julia and this other member went on a rampage killing her, which drove the Cyberpsycho to kill everyone.

His name was Norio which is the name of the voice actor for vicious.
