Visually at least I think they've nailed it so interesting to see how this turns out. I rewatched the show very recently.

I'm glad they made changes to Faye. Im dying of laughter watching weebs melt down over her bust size and lack of whatever the hell that outfit was in the cartoons. Too many people cast with their ****s and not their brains on the internet.

New Faye design keeps the spirit of the original while also being something that can work in action scenes. There's also more than enough cosplay of the anime costume if people are that hung up on seeing it on a living person.
Wonder who they're going to cast for Ed and Vicious.

The actor is Alex Hassell |

I’m not sure I’m at cautious optimism yet, but the costume design is at least good.

This looks kinda fun. I guess I'll keep Netflix until it shows up.
See you, Space Cowboy....

Looks pretty good. Fits the show better than I thought it would. Hopefully this is done well, but Netflix doesn't have the best track record with me personally, but we'll see. I think John Cho is going to do very well in the role, regardless of the quality of it overall.

John Cho is 49.
Spike is supposed to be 27 in the original series.
I think he looks the part here but surely there was a younger Asian actor they could've gone with?

They’re not clones of the original anime, but at least at first glance I can tell what property it’s supposed to be without any logo. They didn’t Mario 93 it.

I am really impressed with John Cho's suit's fit, like wow. They nailed it.

Looks good so far. Can't wait for the trailer.
If they can get this right then there's a chance that they'll do One Piece right.

I guess there's a chance but I'd say One Piece would be vastly harder to pull off than Cowboy Bebop. Bebop at least has a fairly grounded (if very uneven) tone and structure, is mostly steeped in western tropes, and has a lot of bits that could be done on the cheap. You can't really say any of that for One Piece, it feels like it'd be a waaaay more difficult production. Granted probably still better than the announced live-action Steins;Gate. Feel like if that ever happens bare minimum you'd need to heavily rework Okabe, Daru, and Mayuri and probably drop Faris and Ruka entirely and that's five of your eight main characters out right there. |

Looks really good. November, especially the last half, is usually a mess with me between the holidays and NaNoWriMo, so hopefully I'll be able to watch this as it's uploaded.
