do you love music . or do you love western . or do you love space fiction . if you love one of these and you will love cowboy bebop . this be what an anime fan could get after a month worth of prayer . spike and faye and jet and ed and ein ( data dog ) be the lead character . it about a group of bounty hunter look for money and they almost succeed in catch the big fish but never get the money that they deserve . spike appear to be the central character with a troubled past who join hand with jet and a veteran issp cop . other character join in over time . everyone act on his own and no one expect others to help them in the act . there be some episode that get little to do with the main story but then there be some where the main story eat up even the opening theme . it a high action and drama anime and highly recommend for everyone ( include people who quite never love the past and memory base anime ) buy it . rent it and only if you can not buy it . for me the movie also turn out to be above expectation . i would rate that little above the series .
