;_; I miss my boxed set... Not enough to pay $340 for it like those Amazon sellers want, though, I guess. "Ballad of Fallen Angels" FTW! |

Well... I've seen it, just not in an un-butchered, chronological order, that's all. Saying you've seen just about any anime when all you've seen is the Cartoon Network "interpretation" of it is like saying you've played Grand Theft Auto, if Jack Thompson could get his hands on it first. |

Wow, I wouldn't go quite that far! I hate dubs, but I thought the Cowboy Bebop one was fairly well done. It was actually somewhat watchable! I don't know if anything was edited out or whatnot. Probably. But yeah, see if you can't Netflix it or something :) |

I recall reading the edit list on AnimeNewsNetwork as Bebop came out on Cartoon Network. It was mostly okay, as I recall, although there is the infamous man-photoshopped-into-a-pillow moment. (Two guys were sharing a bed, so one of them was . . . transformed.) Shortly thereafter the editors of the Adult Swim block gave an entire interview of some length on their censorship practices in which they explained that they themselves were great fans of the shows and constantly fought with the suits at Cartoon Network to keep the shows as uncut as possible. It's really much better than if the suits always had their way, which was part of the point of Adult Swim to begin with. (Only the Midnight Run could get completely uncut stuff; government censorship also relaxes at midnight, IIRC.) |

I'm planning on re-watching the series as i get them. Oh, and ya I'm back. Not planning on stealing Heather's game's thunder by saying that. (Message edited by admin on May 01, 2007) |

Cowboy Bebop is licensed, and I prefer people not talk about illicit means of acquiring licensed anime here. I've creatively [edit: okay, that wasn't very creative after all] tweaked Hyper's post. Sorry man! (Message edited by admin on May 01, 2007) |

Oh its ok, I owned the series at one point but my ex-girlfriend stole them from me. Obtaining them by that other means isn't [edit:] "commendeering"(with full intention of returning it) then is it? (Message edited by Hyper on May 05, 2007) |

Update: I will be accepting character sheets soon, as soon as I have worked out some details and posted them here. Sorry for the delay. |

Didier / Musuko here. I've seen the anime (TV series and movie), read the manga, and -- well, I haven't bought the T-shirt, but I know there's one out there. Been talking this one over with Gendou's player, and we're definitely interested. (He'll likely say so himself here in a bit.) We're thinking of playing a pair of 'street samurai' brothers, one bald (me), one with a killer afro (him). Sure, it's a little Wu Tang, but I think it'd fit in that universe. :-) |

The first two discs are done. I'm hooked. I can't understand why I haven't seen this series earlier! Baka! |

Yes, definitely interested on this one. Bebop has so many possible pop references and killer settings... How could one turn it down? |

*cough* Well, it didn't quite start in May, did it? I've had various things going on in my life that ultimately resulted in me doing nothing, but that is about to change. I'm getting back on track, and that means with everything, including this game. I'll have something more concrete for you soon. Just wanted to let you know that I'm still here. |
