as always, we must look to Cowboy Bebop

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 29 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Cowboy Bebop is such a grift, making everyone think so highly of anime as a whole.

(Just kidding, kind of, Cowboy Bebop is an awesome anime and I hope one day they make a live action version as that will surely be awesome.)

Yeah. I have faith it will be better than One Piece we got a few days ago!

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

One Piece? No I don't think they've done that yet either.

I'm hoping first they'll do a live action adaptation of Avatar, the Nickelodeon cartoon. They can't possibly ruin that one.

Iirc they did make a live action version with Harold from Harold and Kumar as Spike. I refused to watch it personally because I don't have high hopes for it.

That sounds terrible. I bet they'd make a complete joke of everything and hardly follow the source material. I'm glad they never made that show, Netflix would never make something so rubbish.

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

Lmao oh I understand. Yes, glad they never made that!

I gave it a try as a huge Bebop fan and couldn't last 10 minutes before decrying it an abomination and moving on.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

That was my feeling exactly. I'm not sure if I could bear to try it again.

Honestly Spike was the highlight of the live action series for me

I got Spike and Jet mixed up disregard this comment

And Samurai Champloo and even Carole and Tuesday. Basically all of Shinichiro Watanabe’s work

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Samurai Champloo was awesome, missed the other two.

Since we're throwing them out there, I'll add Mushishi to the mix. Although it's so incredibly chill and relaxed some people might find it boring.

Coybow Beebop is super overly sexualised though 😕
