The Official Toonami Thread: Fight tha powa!

He never danced around the subject, he never was sure whether or not in the near future to continue the series or not. Either he does continue it or not. Either way I gotten much older since my first run watching the series :frowning:

that show has been done for 11 years.

all of this ā€œmaybe, I don’t know, kind of, shrug, could happenā€ is bullshit.

Even if it were to come back it wouldn’t be the same and people would bitch about it, not because its bad but because thats how people are.

if anything he’d probably continue one of his other works before Bebop.

Shoutouts to 21 beeps just from the 2nd half of that last DeadMan Wonderland episode

I think people watch too much shounen if they expect Spike to magically live after all the shit that happened in The Real Folk Blues. The series shouldn’t be dragged out for another 5 seasons, just Saiyan.

Cowboy Bebop can get hella Shounen in certain episodes/scenes (meaning some unrealistic bullcrap violence happens to the characters bodies, yet they get up/keep standing/somehow lives/ indifferent to the harm to their bodies) just Saiyan. Not that its a bad thing, but you got to be kidding yourself if you consider how the characters deal/survive with their wounds as being realistic. The S

Edit: btw this was not aimed at the feel of the ending(aka NOTHING to do with Spike dying officially or not), but more so on the series as a whole

Kind of wish the climax was actually the Ballad of Fallen Angels episode, I don’t know why but to me that just comes off as a more epic conclusion to me. If the series had ended there I probably would have liked Beebop a lot more. Yeah I’m weird.

Way to cherry-pick arguments you dumb fucking rand; here’s your new avatar: [details=Spoiler]

My point is that Bebop isn’t structured as a shounen anime, nor does it have a lot of shounen-esque stereotypes. The violence is an exception, because, all fucking animes have unrealistic violence. In fact, when has any cartoon had down-to-earth violence?

And answer me this: when has any shounen anime tried to be deep with personal problems, depression, existentialism, and death?

In the anime world, that pretty much says it. I have never seen the episode where spike bites it though. AS won’t share it seems and I really just don’t want to go get it online or in the stores.

yeah. Kong was a great one, perhaps the best. If they let him live at the end of the movie, it would’ve killed the movie, no pun intended.

I think DragonballZ was great! runs out the back door and jumps in the troll chopper to escape

Your new to anime then and/or view a narrow selection if you are actually being serious saying this…

In any case, the fact that you think that I’m posting to ā€œcherry-pick argumentsā€ with you means you just easily get offended and/or get paranoid over a thread.

Go touch a dick you fuckin scrub. You most likely discovered anime through mainstream television. Toonami most likely got you into anime, am I correct? If so, you must be a professional anime viewer with unmatched tenure. If not, it doesn’t matter because you don’t know the scene before it got heavily commercialized, that, and you’re still a fag.

But nah, fuck you. I’ve been watching anime before you were even born. Have you ever discussed anime on Usenet? Did you ever have to go to anime clubs or conventions just to get VHS tapes before major retailers carried them? Do you even know how much $ people would pay for a fansub tape back in the day?

I don’t know how I’m new to anime. Fuck, I don’t even own a ā€œnewā€. What the fuck are you talking about?

Anime is serious.

Why don’t you two cosplay some characters and pretend fight it out shounen style?

lol loved how you post my SRK details like i give a damn and thinks that means anything (Its a fighter game website hint hint)
*looks at yours
yup your in no position to judge whatever the hell you think you are trying to do. I could care care less about a faceless internet nobody who i don’t give two sh1ts about because I hurt your internet anime pride and decided to randomly rant about how you going to anime conventions and sh1t like I’m supposed to be impressed (LOL)

My first anime was Sailor Moon. Still one of my favorites to this day, and I found it through mainstream television. It’s not all bad . . .

Usagi in english sorta grates on my nerves sometimes.

This is wrong why?

I know I did, when I was a little kid I watched toonami.

thats sort of why i’m in this thread…

thats sort of why everyone in this thread is in this fucking thread…

Are you Hummingbird IRL :open_mouth:

ah, isn’t that cute? he has to replace the ā€œiā€ in ā€œshitā€ with 1’s in order to bypass the parental controls on his web browser. it’s also cute that he’s going on an illiterate tirade with one of the longest run-on-sentences i’ve ever seen. looks like this little tyke couldn’t give two sh1ts about his rep on a ā€œfighter gameā€ website.

also; does your alias represents your real age?

If it means anything, one star faded, but Vicious was there as well and is dead, so either Vicious was not a ā€œtrue warriorā€ and Spike dies(most likely), and I believe that to be the intended scenario, however I believe we have a right to be open about this sort of thing and look at it from both angles.

Granted, we are basically experiencing a Schrodinger’s Cat syndrome, because neither of these outcomes are truly official, and chances are they never will be until a continuation would confirm, but said continuation would basically require him living so, the only way to kill spike is to leave the series untouched and his status would be left as unconfirmed, but dead to the fans.

Pretty much. I’m pretty sure when they were watching the episode over before hand the censor’s were probably like hits button on scouter in the beginning ā€˜hmph…it’s not that bad…’ and then the kaio ken cussing dropped in the second half.
