Post Description

Cowboy Bebop is an award-winning 1998 Japanese anime series directed by Shinichirō Watanabe, 
written by Keiko Nobumoto, and produced by Sunrise. Its 26 episodes comprise a complete storyline: 
set in 2071, the series follows the misadventures and tragedies  of a group of bounty hunters, 
or "cowboys", traveling on their spaceship, the Bebop.

The series" art direction centers around American music and counterculture, especially the beat and jazz 
movements of the 1940s-60s and the early rock era of the 1950s-70s, which the original soundtrack by 
Yoko Kanno and The Seatbelts recreates.

Cowboy Bebop was a commercial success both in Japan and international markets, notably in the United States. 
After this reception, Sony Pictures released a feature film, Knockin" on Heaven"s Door, to theaters worldwide 
and followed up with an international DVD release. 

In 2022, the explosion of an experimental warp gateway caused major damage to the Moon, bathed the Earth  
with radiation, and left an asteroid ring that threatens the surface with daily meteorite bombardments. As a 
result, many survivors abandoned the barely-habitable Earth to colonize the inner planets, the asteroid belt 
and the moons of Jupiter.

The show opens in 2071, when the entire Solar System has been made accessible via reliable warp gates. 
Mars has become the new central hub of human civilization, and interplanetary crime syndicates exert influence 
over the government and the Inter-Solar System Police (ISSP), limiting their effectiveness in dealing with crime. 
As a result, a bounty system similar to that in the Old West is established to deal with fugitives, terrorists, 
and other criminals.

The crew of the spaceship Bebop are a partnership of bounty hunters, known as "cowboys", who travel the Solar 
System trying to apprehend bounties. Jet Black is the owner of the Bebop, but has partnered with Spike Spiegel 
for his diverse combat skills. During its travels, the Bebop gains new crew members, much to the visible 
annoyance of both Jet and Spike.

Most episodes revolve around attempts to bring in a specific bounty. Some of the Bebop"s varied targets include 
small time thugs, gangsters, hackers (known as "net divers" in slang), religious leaders, psychopaths, genetic 
experiments, mutant creatures, and petty thieves. Though the characters advertise themselves as self-interested, 
their actions frequently show that they are sympathetic to the plight of others. On several occasions, the crew 
forgoes the chance to collect bounty rewards upon learning of the circumstances of their bounty-heads.

Occasionally the Bebop crew members" pasts catch up with them, and the show regularly turns to the history of 
the main characters in flashbacks. Spike"s past as a syndicate enforcer is a major element of the series, while other 
episodes deal with Jet"s previous occupation as an ISSP officer on Ganymede, Faye"s mysterious past and significant 
debt problems, and Ed"s childhood. The day-to-day life of the crew is also explored during the series. 
A major recurring theme is the chronic lack of money, a situation that is not helped by the crew"s frequent inability 
to collect on bounties. This results in the general disrepair of the Bebop and common shortages of food.
