My dad actually really liked the cowboy bebop live action show, I think he said he even watched some of the anime after, which is pretty crazy as I don't think he's ever watched anime intentionally on his own before.

I mean, Cowboy Bebop is sometimes referred to as “the anime for people who say they don’t like anime” for a reason. It’s many people’s first foray into the world of anime, and it’s what helps them ditch the “eh it’s all just cartoons for kids” mentality.

I wish it were also a gateway drug for Jazz.

Actually anime kinda did for me! silly cat from skekz was my introduction to jazz just recently. I had no idea I liked this kind of music but it was in a video named something like music from flcl dreams.

Same here! It really expanded my view of music. Not just Jazz but all kinds of instrumental music. I never shutdown a song because it’s “country”, “reggae”, “rap” whatever. I always give it a try and it’s 100% because of the soundtrack for this show.

Also if you haven’t heard the new stuff they made for the reboot, it’s pretty solid!
