So … what did I think? Y’all, I loved it. I even liked the whole eco-terrorists episode! And you guys know how I feel about Mrs. Murdock and her band of moron children. Spoilers ahead:

With each one of these challenges, it gets harder and harder to say what inspires me about whatever series/movie/comic book/podcast/etc. I have chosen for the month because … well, a lot of it is the same. I’m inspired by the character creation, the world building, the themes, the social commentary, the dialogue, what I don’t

Honestly? I got what I wanted with the creation of a live-action version (of which I will be finishing up over the next couple of days), and although I don’t have a solid opinion of how they did as of yet, I haven’t had too many complaints so far. But I think what I’d like

Okay, so the movie is apparently not available on streaming, and even though there is a $300 Blu Ray on Amazon, as of today, I just refuse to spend money to purchase an actual DVD to be sent to me. Plus, I’m poor; even $15 is too much. So I’m going off of a couple

Anyone who reads my challenges knows that I love the soundtrack challenge days because it’s basically just another on rotation … and I get to relisten to a lot of music that I forgot I loved so much. This is no different. Yoko Kanno is a musical genius, who has done so much that it’s

Now, I want to preface this by saying that “worst episode” does not mean “least favorite episode,” although sometimes those do coincide and I end up just wanting to throw the controller at my TV (I’m looking at you, “Black Market“). But with Cowboy Bebop, it seems like there are just episodes that I’m “meh”
