Cowboy Bebop: Ballad of Fallen Angels-Showdown

[Imisstheoilers]

This anime stands above the rest for its wonderful cinematography and animation.

There are many popular animes out there, but I have yet to see one that equals this masterpiece.

[JHulse29]

I have to say I usually hate english dubs, but I give a LOT of credit Cowboy Bebop had really good english voice actors. This is one of the only animes I can watch the english dub

[JesterHopperpot1]

@JHulse29 I completely agree, Steven Blum in particular did a brilliant job as Spike

[genestarwind7]

one of the greatest scenes in anime history

[JoeyoTToMarshall]

Do any one know the name of that song at 4.09 at the end ???/

[MissAnimeFreak513]

@JoeyoTToMarshall Green bird

[genestarwind7]

i love how vicious thinks he won when he throws spike out the window and then looks down and see the grenade spike left for em then hes all like @_@ oh shit! BOOOOM!

[ViaVirtus]

This scene sold me on Bebop.

[GTownJoe85]

Whats the song at the beginning of the video?

[JesterHopperpot1]

@GTownJoe85 "Rain" by Yoko Kanno & The Seatbelts. They did all the music in the series

[skalexander]

This show is brilliant. I used to watch it in high school, and I'm rediscovering it now. I feel young(er) again!!!

[demonorse]

Vicious was the coolest, his fucking bird turns out to be a robot that he can explode in a emergency

[kbairwolf]

Is the song at 4:07 part of the ballad of fallen angels, or is it another song? If so what is it called!

[JesterHopperpot1]

@kbairwolf Yeah, I think it's Ballad of Fallen Angels, although I might be mistaken.

[xmt4life]

@kbairwolf It's called Green Bird .It is part of the OST.

[echo3300]

@kbairwolf no its called green bird

[blakbro2k]

@kbairwolf It is Green Bird also by Yoko Kanno

[kbairwolf]

Is the last half of the song also part of the ballad of fallen angels or is it another song if so what is it called!?

[ladylum1]

I remember seeing this when it first came out in the 90s and I saw this scene. My brother and I kept rewinding so we could hear the song.

[zambimaru]

One of the best anime scenes ever.

[JesterHopperpot1]

@zambimaru Truest statement I've heard all day ;)

[blakbro2k]

@JesterHopperpot1 WORD

[TheEnd1500]

ok, this will be my brother and me in the future... hell thats what everyone says lol (and it's probubly true lol)

[mmmagus1]

My favorite scene in the show. This show ended WAY too soon. A show like this deserves at least 3 seasons.

[JesterHopperpot1]

@mmmagus1 Me too, I absolutely love this scene. It's everything an action scene should be: Graceful, violent, and packed with emotion. Plus, the animation is beautiful, and the use of music is spot-on perfect. By far one of the best shows of all time.

[mmmagus1]

@JesterHopperpot1 To me it's right up there with Inuyasha, Ghost in the Shell SAC, GITS SAC 2nd Gig, Death Note, Fullmetal Alchemist, Spiral, Cyborg 009, DBZ, DBGT, Code Geass, Dot Hack Sign, Dot Hack Legend of the Twilight, and Samurai Champloo. Some of the best anime shows ever. All of them my favorites.

[mmmagus1]

@JesterHopperpot1 Case Closed and Gundam Seed too

[blamejewsnniggers]

@mmmagus1 Yes they should just keep making episodes untill the series ends up a washed up has been series

[mmmagus1]

@blamejewsnniggers Your opinion has no credibility and neither do you, considering your username. Of all the possible random names you could have chosen, you decide to go with that.

[Bmcgov133]

the song at the beginning is epic, man! also these scene is epic! EPIC AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! OOOOOO GOOOOOOD!!!!

[JesterHopperpot1]

@Bmcgov133 I know man, it was just an epic show, lol.

[mrsp0re]

y is it called cowboy bebop sounds like a name for a comedy.

[JesterHopperpot1]

@mrsp0re It's not a comedy, it's a pretty seriouse show (though it has some funny parts here and there). It's called Cowboy Bebop for two reasons: The "Cowboy" is because the show is sort of like a western in space, and the "Bebop" is because a big element of the show was it's music, which was fantastic. It's a brilliant show, you should watch it some time.

[Bmcgov133]

@JesterHopperpot1 yea man. wat i've seen is really good. so anyways, how's the wife and kids?

[JesterHopperpot1]

@Bmcgov133 Yeah, it's easily one of my favourite shows of all time. And they're fine, lol.

[ladylum1]

@JesterHopperpot1 it also helped that Bebop was the name of the ship :)
