As a brit who routinely hates American voice actors, bebop had the best. I still prefer the Japanese as I think the English language version of Spike just doesn't fit his character but the others are brilliant in their own way regardless of how similar they are/aren't.
The ending of this movie makes me a little emotional. Because we all know that this is the last we'll see of Spike, the gang and the rest of the Cowboy Bebop world. The ending credits are a beautiful send off if you ask me. No matter what happens, life goes on.
agreed, and they're both preferable to the french one. I swear, i never thought it was possible for Spike to sound FLAMINGLY GAY, but there ya go.
(on a slightly related note, if you want to see an awesome french cartoon movie l.u. Triplettes of Belleville. If Michael Gondry and Hayao Miyazaki managed to have offspring together, (s)he's probably have made this movie)
also, the end quote at the end of the movie was epic. Are you living in the real world? Bebop was always such a trippy anime, that's why I love it. Kinda like what the Matrix did for me.
This is my fav anime movie of all time..The Inuyasha movies were okay and the Fullmetal Alchemist movie was great but I just love this one the best and yes I know theres tons more anime movies but I still consider this one the best ^^
At the beginning of the movie, we see Spike asleep and Jet tells him to "get up". Spike stirs and suddenly it moves onto the next scene of Spike walking down the street. We never see him actually wake up. The ending shot, it shows the same exact scene of Spike sleeping (just like the beginning), so it's presumed he's dreaming all of this.
The whole movie is Spike's dream, and the last quote Spike says COULD POSSIBLY resemble Spike himself, not Vincent.
Trust me I hadn't seen that perspective until seeing the movie the second time around. I realized that we never see Spike wake up and just continues as if it was nothing. The first quote in the movie is the same exact quote stated by Spike at the ending, so I figured it was mainly about him, not Vincent. That's just my perspective though.
Others think that the movie isn't Spike's dream, and motivates Spike to kill Vicious once and for all.
I read somewhere a while back that this movie, or segment in the crew's lives, takes place right before Ed and Ein leave the crew. It's supposed to help influence Spike's final decision after Julia dies. Or at least that's what the creator said...
Yep, yep. Great movie. Man, I keep hoping against hope that someday there will be some additional episode that makes everything clear to me. Granted, the mystery makes the show amazing, but what did happen between Spike and Vicious? I'm confused about the chronology of his days in the cartel.
It's actually pretty simple - Spike and Viscious were in the same syndicate. They were friends. Julia was with Viscious, Spike wanted Julia. They decided to leave the planet together. Viscious found out and told Julia to kill Spike or be killed. Julia never showed up, and Spike left, alone.
I thought that Julia was the one that shot Spike, since he said something to the effect that he was betrayed by a woman before. Oh, I also read your other post about how the events in the movie inspired Spike's final decision. The coolness of it blew my mind. :)
haha, yeah. When Spike said that to Laughing Bull (think that's the mystic's name) you later find that he was referring to Julia's not showing up so they could leave that life behind. Spike never knew that Julia was supposed to kill him, so he sadly assumes that she just decided to not leave with him.

a couple days ago I was driving into Toronto over the Skyway bridge. It was about 10pm and it started to rain lightly and the city was shining bright with its millions of lights. I threw thing song on the CD player lit a smoke and went cruising around the city. It was awesome.
i like to walk around the block in the rain listening to this. my neighbors have long come to the conclusion that i'm the resident crack addict, and my regular strolls is just me searching for a fix.
yeah, its really fun when you have no destination or plan. usually though, i end up at this park near my house. my butt gets wet going on the swings...
oooh, i know what you mean. that song especially helped me when i was going through a very lonely period...the lyrics just fit so well with what i've experienced. Steve Contes is amazing.
Hum....I don't really like the Bebop's crew voices in english...what about you? Are them the same as the series? In french, they're different from the roots, and pretty ugly, especially Spike's one...I can't prononce myself about japenese VOST lol, sorry...Please reply so i could see..
i dunno why...but this is lyk one of the xtremly few anime's that i prefer to wath the english dubed version
