cowboy bebop be the best anime ever . i be 21 and do not tend to be fanboyish and and have see plenty of others . and it the best anime ever . what other anime feature a mix of the best choreograph or energetic or kick as fight scene hand to hand and hong kong gun fight and air space battle . an unbelievable mix of comic and tragic and violent and fairy tale style episode . an incredible sound track yoko kanno be a genius that can do memorable and emotional jazz and blue and classical and fantasy style and j pop and even heavy metal . i wouldn not even consider buy the soundtrack to any other anime . it quite literally oozes cool character ( spike be probably the cool not awsomest and but stylishly cool ) music and action and narrative . hell and it the only show that have both a cute animal character and a cute annoy kid character that i do not wish a horrible death upon . and if that doesn not convince you and then nothing will .
