I barely even like anime, but Cowboy Bebop is friggin rad. Watch it, there's a Netflix remake coming out that you can judge unworthy after.

Every once in a while, a show comes along that is so good, it sets the bar for everything that comes after. There are not many shows that reach the awesomeness that is Cowboy Bebop. It was fun, light hearted, and over drama was set to "go away and ruin a different series" If you have not seen this show yet, what are you doing with your life?
