cowboy bebop deserve all the praise it receive . this show can be appreciate by almost anyone and regardless of their feeling towards anime in general . i have hear a number of time from people who dislike anime that they really enjoy these 26 short session of brilliance . there be of course a few ( very few ) episode that do not measure up well against the others but all in all every episode be entertain . jazz and film noir and the golden age of cinema . i would use these word to describe cowboy bebop . to get the feeling of this show and think of movie like casablanca and brick and swinger . you get the point . it also worth mention this show dubbed voice over be some of the best in all anime ( dub voice or original ) . one of the few i prefer to watch in the english version . you have to give this one a try .
