Biggest problem with this show was the fact he had no likable character.
Also it tried to capture what Bebop did fair too hard.

You need to say they are the best thing ever or you won't appear to have good taste because that matters.

Do it yourself, faggot.

Cowboy Bebop would work much better as a video game.Just rolling around the galaxy doing interesting questlines and stuff.Dogfights in space, doing detective shit or just exploring the streets of weird-looking planets.

But Spike was an asshole too and I kinda liked Jin in Samurai Champloo.Probably more than Spike.

It probably is overrated but at the same time it & CB are pretty unique, there's not much like them. I seriously feel that episodic stories are even harder to get "right" than traditional-style narratives though, when it's not fucking great it typically ends up being sorta shit.

>pretentious
Oh fuck off, you don't even know what that word means if you think it applies to SC.

They've both aired on Western television and are extremely accessible to people with Western sensibilities. They've also both got very distinct soundtracks compared to most anime.

>And both this girl and Faye from CB is so fucking annoying I just can't watch their scenes.That Watanabe fuck can't write good woman characters.
Opinions? Never cared for Fuu much but Faye is an excellent character. Are you perhaps confusing "person you'd want to hang out with" for good character?

>People praise them a lot but they're not that good

They aired during the early 00s on Cartoon Network. That alone is enough reason why. They also are both very accessible and made with the western audience in mind.

>made with the western audience in mind
You think they expected Westerners to get all the references to Japanese history?

>>151871355
>18th century
The story is set in the early 1850's you illiterate monkey

It isn't

Watch Kids on the Slope instead

There was a video game faggot

Both series are good becuase of the themes they address and the way they do so. Think ping pong and tatami, boh incredible shows which address powerful themes through a unique directoral style

>>151871355
>pretentious crap
Do people bother knowing what words mean before using them?

All the references to Japanese history amount to
>gaijin black boats
>samurai and shit
Also they explain everything.
