Not really, it's pretty overrated, Im not saying is bad by any means, but it has more style than substance.
no, watch space dandy, that's a good one.
No
The music is great and it's well animated but the plot just isn't there
It's a "story of the week" type deal which sprinkles a tiny bit Overarching plot
But it just doesn't feel like it's enough, especially since the last episodes decide to jump into full plot mode
There's a reason it's on every fags recommendation list
It's not bad, it's really good but it's just way too overhyped
I fucking hated Ed
Every character has a lot of substance to their backstory (except Ed). OP, this show is still worth at least a watch, even 20 years after it came out.
Watch it again when you're over the age of twenty five.
Escaflowne was way better
The MC is a moron and a god damn asshole.
It's overrated but still good. If you're looking for a slow character driven sci fi show you can do a hell of a lot worse. It's worth watching.
Never saw it. Does it have a film noir influence?
I wouldn't exactly say that
If you want a sci-fi noir anime then Big O is your best bet
It was animated by the same studio that made Batman the animated series
It also has a great OST

I want to fuck Ed.
In the world of anime, yes. People complaining about plot and characters don't understand what it is, tend to like having everything explained to them, and tend to go for shows with MCs they self-insert as. Morons, in other words, will say no. Unless, of course, they reject all anime, in which case they are mostly correct.
How
cringe as fuck
"w-watch the Super cool Jazz japanese cartoon when you're older then you'l understand!!"
Kek
>no plot
>annoying characters
>meme music
No, it really doesn't.
>decide to watch show just because I think Edward is cute
>watch 4 episodes and still no Edward
>get bored and quit
>find out she doesn’t appear until episode 6
>it’s been too long now and I don’t feel like restarting
Any other shows for this feel?
did. dropped it after pierrot le fou
>cringe
how old are you?
I liked Outlaw Star better.
You can say that about any anime. Most of them are heavily influenced by 40s-70s western sci-fi and pop culture, but at least Bebop wore those influences openly without shame. And it's certainly got more substance than that Neon Evangelion crap.
Remember this scene?
you can just look up her episodes and watch those
Is this the one where they're looking for a VCR player or something?
No, only the Vicious episodes are good.
Best adult swim anime coming through
Not at all. It's a show that looks and sounds great, has cool characters, but barely any plot or character development.
>ywn be a space trucker
why live
>And it's certainly got more substance than that Neon Evangelion crap.
Waaah? Eva literally has so much substance that it barely makes sense.
Yes. So moron walks into this dude's shop. Doesn't understand how VHS works. Is a huge pain in the ass. Ignorance is a bliss. Literally worse than burgers. Proceeds to fucking destroy this dudes antique equipment. For lulz and shit, I suppose. Fuck that idiotic faggot.
Triggered autist
>than that Neon Evangelion crap.
God, how is it even possible to sound like such an insufferable out-of-touch boomer?
You are the human caricature of pic related
>does it deserve the hype
>every limp dick faggot response saying it's good but not worthy of being recognized for being good by nearly every person who's watched it
You guys really are just a bunch of contrarion faggots, huh.
Eva is a boomer anime. chances are it's older than you
'it's good but overrated' still means it's good and isn't contrarian at all
It's the only anime I can say I actually enjoyed and will admit to people I watched, and even recommend to some. It isn't amazing or anything but as someone that despises anime it showed me there is some merit to the medium.
It's not about Eva itself, it's about how that fucking line was worded
Just rubbed me the wrong way
It's like referring to Trigun as Tripplegun
>He doesn't understand the absolute cult following Bebop has in the entry-level circuit
People herald it as one of the greatest anime to ever exist
It's on every fuckers recommended list
Saying "it's good but not that amazing" isn't contrarian at all, especially since it lacks a plot that takes it anywhere
Character building was great and Faye's entire subplot was one of my favorite parts, but what's the point of all character building when there's nowhere to actually go with it?
It's amazing. Disregard the plebs.
Kill yourself
Of course it doesn't, it's literally made for teenagers whose favorite films are tarantino flicks
You're just a bootyblasted Eva fanboy who got very triggered. You need to die painfully
I watched it when I was 16 and thought it was a solid 6/10. I watched it again 4 years later and it was an easy 10/10. Couldn't tell you why since I'm a brainlet but I can understand why people think it's pretentious and overrated.
For me though, Eva has always been the most pretentious and overrated anime. I think I saw that for the first time when I was 18.
Are Evangelion and Cowboy Bebop really the pinnacle of anime? If so, I don't want to know what a bad anime is like. I think I'll stick to western animation.
No one cares how old you were when you first watched anime or when you first sucked your brothers dick however we do care about how soon will it be when you kill yourself
Anime is a joke anyway, western animation is worse
>Are Evangelion and Cowboy Bebop really the pinnacle of anime?
do the people who constantly post about 'em seem anywhere close to a pinnacle of knowledge that would lead you to respect their judgement, korra?
Cowboy Bebop is good, but Jojo is the pinnacle of animekino
CB has a lot into it, from Miles Davis to Dumezil to Leone to Blade Runner to Hemimgway to Wim Wenders.
Your answer, and the answers of many others show this is a board of shallow contrarians and dumb capeshitters.
Hello!
>it references a lot of shit so it must be good
Your are the cancer
because it's just like real life
>American film director, screenwriter, and producer Rian Johnson has cited Cowboy Bebop as a visual influence on his films, most notably Brick.
Lmfaooo
All of wantanabes shows deserve the hype.
Absolutely
especially the one currently running.. bwahahaha
Style is substance.
This. I watched the first 4 episodes a week ago, expecting some top tier shit, and it was just like a Saturday cartoon.
Don't get me wrong it was pretty good, but It wasn't the second coming of Christ like people make it out to be.
Samurai champloo interest me far more than this.
Yes and only plotniggers hate it.
The JoJo fanbase is so fucking obnoxious I don't even want to touch that shit with a 10 foot pole.
I'm willing to bet it's overrated "meh" Anime anyway
>posts korra
Fuck off
Episodic structure filtered you. Based.
I can recommend you some good manga, not into those hipster animes myself either.
I don't get what is funny about this. Is it because netflix is taking forever to release it?
couldnt agree more user
Quick, tell me what you like and what you’re looking for and i’ll recommend you some anime kino. Better hurry before the jannies get banny.
What? It just felt like an average Western cartoon. Samurai champloo and various other animes had an established beginning, middle and end, with interesting characters and arcs.
Like Sara and Mugen.
For me it's Outlaw Star.
Exactly. The episodic structure filtered you. Based.
Champloo had plenty of eps that had nothing to do with the main plot
Yeah Outlaw Star was comfy.
Berserk
Tokyo ghoul(not re:)
Parasyte
Cage of Eden
Suicide island
Btooom!
Gants:0 (The beginning)
Hive
snk
Bloody Monday(not the ending)
Read Claymore. Try Higurashi, Deadman Wonderland, Casshern Sins, Wolf’s Rain, Darker than Black and Eden of the East.
Yeah but they were just filler (interesting but that's besides the point),cowboy Bebop feels like that's all it will be so far.
I'll keep watching as it's not a lot of episodes, but I'm just tired of over hyped anime.
my favorite anime are LoGH, Initial D, GitS, and EVA. Any more anime like these.
Imagine typing this sentence thinking anyone would agree with you.
Wolf's Rain is comf
>if it isn’t contributing to an overarching plot it’s a waste of time
Plotnigger plebs filtered again!
It deserves it. Champloo and dandy do too.
Ergo proxy :^)
The art for claymore tuned me off completely but I'll give it another go.
I liked Deadman wonderland, just wish ganta was replaced with a man.
Thanks for the other recommend, user, I'll download them now.
Crest of the Stars, The Irresponsible Captain Tylor, Ergo Proxy, Infinite Ryvius, Blue Gender, Raxhephan, Golgo 13, Texhnolyze, and Basilisk.
Excellent Choice
You mean Space Danny?
Have fun edge user!
Mmm cool ranch
No space donda
It's better than Eva and Bebop, that's for sure.
You’re a laughing stock on Yea Forums of all places. You have no argument.
Terrible taste.
Yeah but what is the super genius anime that men of class and taste partake?
Not an argument
It's a fact.
in what world is berserk and TG bad?Post your list, let's see what you consider high quality anime.
Post alternatives, shitposter.
I like the more singular episodic nature. It contrasts to most anime series. Though I think it neither a boon nor a benefit to the series. It's just different from most anime. The individual episodes of pulp sci fi crime tales with, yes, an amazing soundtrack.
I actually have a signed copy of the soundtrack box set.
BETA AS FUCK
I'm actually rewatching Eva right now.
It and Bebop are both still favorite series.
A lot of zoomers consider anything that isn’t overarching to be a waste of time. Media is a plot delivery system to shovel in their gullet and aspects like an episodic three act structure, themes, visual direction and production value are beyond them. Bebop is one of the great episodic shows, if it was overarching it couldn’t have done so many different things with the concept and world.
I just caved in and bought this figure.
You can keep saying that I guess.....schizo
Hahahaha bye bye normalfag!
Based and utterly redpilled
One of like 3 animes worth watching for general audiences. No one really gives a fuck about your weird losershit.
>Hahahaha bye bye normalfag!
>look this up
>oh shit this dude has a new anime coming out?
>'Carole and Tuesday'
>watch trailer
Yeah well. Fuck that.
That guy wasn't me, but thanks for exposing your true thoughts lol
Champloo started with a plot, meandered, then ended with everybody fucking off. Apparently they had planned a movie but the show wasn't successful enough to warrant one so they scrapped it.
What do you mean? The point of the show was for us to see fuus journey while Mugen and Jin protected her.
Those fights they had served a purpose, Sara, that scythe & claw guy and the old assassin were sent to kill jin. They weren't random encounters.
Even Mugen delivering that bag served a purpose as it was the only was for them to get across the border and free fuu & jin.
I would've loved to see a movie. Can't believe I never heard of that
Faggot, it's like 2072. Of course he doesn't know what a VHS tape is.
yes no
Wow, the only person in the world other than me that was bothered by that scene. Then when the guy calls them so they can pay for the damage they tell him to fuck off.
Spike is a mega zoomer.
