no! gently caress! no!!! it’s like they made cowboy bebop into Scott pilgrim! what the gently caress

e: beaten but I maintain that this basically just reminds me of the scott pilgrim movie in a bad way

I guess A Worse Firefly is okay, it’ll have money behind it, so it won’t look too garbage

I think the GITS movie with ScarJo spooked Hollywood from just making anime leads white.

ippo loving rules. best sports anime of all time. maybe best battles? dunno. great great great show.

wrt cowboy bebop yeah it looks awful. he's so old, it's like a joke. they keep zooming in on his old man face too. isnt there a bond where he's like 60? thats what this felt like. so offputting. faye seems to have misadapted the character into wacky mean girl. jet is good though.

I'll give it a hate watch

The dialogue is so stilted and weird. It's like they were trying to do fanservice with characters the writers didn't really understand.

Cowboy Bebop was cool. That was the whole thing, it was cool. That trailer wasn't cool, it was showing off. It was trying to impress you with the comic panels gimmick.

Compare that trailer to this

Why is the comic panels gimmick even there? it’s not a manga adaptation.
Is this their interpretation of the album cover visuals from the opening?

The funniest thing about this Cowboy Bebop adaptation is you can clearly see every time they switch John Cho with a stuntman.

I don't know how you can gently caress this up so badly.

It's a Space Western about people constantly broke. Go from there. The characterizations are already there, there's more than one episode that explicitly spells out the type of characters they are. Is just they Hollywood is so filled with liberal failchildren that they can't understand anything that isn't Joss Whedon, or just they don't care. Or both

No cartoon even looks like that. The way they manipulate the panels might make sense for adapting a comic book, but Cowboy Bebop wasn't a manga.

Hoping that and the success of the discotek release mean good things for the series in general

I'm glad that these days I can just point pals to crunchyroll and get them Ippo-pilled instead of having them go through the hassle of getting it through other means.
