Brilliant Bebop!

Already a fan of the medium of Anime, I was waiting for a series which would strike me as deeply as some of the classics. Cowboy Bebop has done that with deep characters, a twisting plotline, humorous dialoge and a fantastic score to give the sessions an upbeat, jazzy feel.

The deep, engaging storyline centers around Spike, a former mob hitman and martial arts master, his partner Jet, a retired police detective, and their exploits aboard the good ship Bebop as they travel the solar system, bounty hunting to pay the tab. Later, they meet up with Faye, a gorgeous but dangerous gambler with a sizable debt and a bad case of memory loss, Edward, the young, female but eccentric computer hacker from a decimated Earth, and Ein, the runaway canine with a super intelligence and millions-worth of data stored in his head.

Together, they battle the powerful Syndicate, the center of organized crime, the interplanetary police, and even each other in the quest for the all-mighty woolong. And occasionally stopping for personal missions to clear the past, settle the score, and reclaim lost loves, Cowboy Bebop tells these tales with style, skill and jazz.

Inspiring to say the least, Cowboy Bebop is highly recommended for those wishing a deep story, characters to love and hate, and a soundtrack to keep the foot tapping. Fantastic, the best I've seen in a while.
