Starting summer vacation off right with Cowboy Bebop

Well, I have a lot of shows in mind to watch this summer and I’m sure a lot of them are going to be shit to mediocre, but hey that’s the path I’ve chosen because I want to be an anime expert.

Anyway, I’m sure everyone has seen Cowboy Bebop except for me. Instead of saying why I love it now, I’ll explain why I’ve just kind of avoided it for so long. First I never really watched it because I wasn’t interested in it. The time it was released I still was Internet less so I didn’t really know about for a while. Then when it started showing on Cartoon Network I still didn’t watch it since it didn’t look like something I’d watch. I was still kind of watching a certain niche genre of shows at that time.

I thought, perhaps I’m better than the hype. Hype is rubbish most of the time. You see it even today with shows like Haruhi, and Lucky Star. They’re shit and don’t live up to the hype. From the episodes I’ve watched of Cowboy Bebop it appears to live up to its hype so I hope it continues to be awesome and not fall flat on its face by the end like Gurren Lagann. Another show of recent date I believe lives up to its hype although maybe a little problems here and there towards the end.

Lastly, Cowboy Bebop today is more or less mainstream and more of a gateway anime. I’m already into anime so I figured there would be no need for me to watch it. Course, all this was my thinking years ago and I think differently now about anime.
