30 day challenge
-
I really feel like the order in which characters were introduced in the show was off. Like obviously, Spike and Jet being the first two makes sense; after all, their ship is the Bebop. But having Ein – the delightful character that he is – follow in the very next episode just … I don’t…

Guess who’s behind again! It’s me! This week has been absolutely one of the most intense since last semester, so I’m just happy I’m only one challenge behind at this point. Bear with me! Anyway, these challenge days are always some of the hardest for me to do, since most of the time, the movies…

I’ve read a lot of reviews on the new live-action Cowboy Bebop, and trust, all I have to do this weekend is finish the communication paper for my mental health clinical. So guess what that means: YUP, ALL COWBOY BEBOP, ALL THE TIME. I have middlin’ expectations, so we’ll see how the show lives up…

Oh, thank god, an easy one. I have a test later on today, so I’m struggling to do anything but stress out about it. Also! Today is my sister’s birthday, so be sure to hop on over to Twitter to wish her the best of days! Anyway, I’ll be doing fan art tomorrow, but for…

Surprisingly, there aren’t a ton of fan theories surrounding Cowboy Bebop, which kind of makes this day’s challenge a little difficult – and I have tests to study for! This show leaves a lot up in the air, so I think I’m going to go with a fairly interesting take on a simple concept: is…

Okay, so … “Mushroom Samba” is one of my guilty pleasure episodes. It’s so silly, even more so than “Toys in the Attic.” But it features both Ed and Ein as the focal characters, and that makes it A+ in my book. Plus, it features my absolute favorite Ein moment of the entire series: Basically, Ein eats…

In a primarily action-oriented show, oh my God, are there so many fights to choose from, and you’d think that, due to my general apathy toward Vicious, that he wouldn’t be in my top choice. But you’d be wrong. Even though the final showdown between Vicious and Spike is epic, I just had to go…

I kind of feel like I already covered this with Gren, so today’s challenge is going to be easy. I wish Gren’s storyline could have been expanded upon, particularly his history with Vicious. I feel like this would have made Vicious a bit more sympathetic to me, or at least a bit more interesting than…

Asimov Solensan is the first bounty we see in Cowboy Bebop in the very first episode, “Asteroid Blues,” and yes, it’s my favorite. Because I’m me, I didn’t watch the series in order (the first DVD was unavailable at the Sam Goody/Suncoast where I worked, so I purchased the second), which means I didn’t see…

Being from another culture, a lot of pop references may go way over your head if you aren’t familiar with Japanese puns (they are so intricate and occasionally hilarious?) or their lifestyles, fashions, history, etc. One of the reasons Excel Saga was so funny was because it played with so many of the tropes in…
