Cowboy Bebop and The West

We are finally cowboys.
Cowboy Bebop is a mishmash of genres and styles from film, art and music. One of the most prominent is the classic Hollywood Western, so I scrambled some eggs to try and make that mean something.

"More often than not, the message doesn't seem to be, 'Be honest with yourself about your emotions. Vulnerability is worth it.' Because the characters aren't rewarded for that vulnerability. Instead, the message is, 'You are vulnerable. It's not a choice.' No matter how tough you are, you have a squishy human heart. Sooner or later, you are going to lose someone and you're going to be pretend it doesn't hurt. But it will. The way you handle that is not swallowing your emotions, it's accepting and processing them. And maybe you won't be able to move on, and if that's the case, See you Space Cowboy."

True, pretty much every video essay channel, even Wisecrack, have only focused on the themes of loneliness and existential dread of the series without ever talking about the themes and influence of the American Western. Also he does a good job at explaining the origin of the Western and the realities of it. This vid is half history lesson and half anime deconstruction and it's done well.

Ed's fathers name is a play on "Afedersiniz hesap lütfen" which means "excuse me check please" in Turkish. Fitting, considering the fact that the guy constantly forgets his assistants name, names his daughter Edward, and calls her Fransoise when they meet in the episode. The anime has many little surprises here and there like this and this is what makes it so special. It is definitely a classic.

Honestly, thank you for this video. For years now I've been more caught up on the existential finale of the series, and the blending of the everyday menial lives and deep backstory of the main four. This was so prominent to me, I didnt even look for more out of the series. I'd never have given a second thought to Andy, or Hex, or how any of the others played into the greater themes, outside of maybe Vicious. As someone struggling with my own sense of my ideal self and life versus the real, the latter portion was especially poignant. Seeing such a deep love and understanding for a series, and respective video, honestly always inspires me to keep at it myself, and shows me an even higher goal to strive to. It's great to see another video from you, especially one that could give me an even greater respect and love for an all time classic

honestly, that was some amazing insight. I need to not only rewatch bebop, but pretty much everything else and drop my ego. I'm not spike, I'm not faye, I'm not any of these characters, but a combination of them. I feel dumb saying that but damn dude, great video; really got me thinking.
