Imagine going from one of the most cold blooded and brutal anime villain's in history to this sad ass nae nae baby

“My father will hear about this” - Vicious Malfoy

To people who protect this version of vicious, saying that they turned one dimensional character into “complex real human of a character”. Being one dimensional villain was the point. We weren’t supposed to know anything about vicious. He was supposed to be some kind of force of nature, agent of chaos, that suddenly appears in the middle of a story to fuck up spike’s day. Because vicious as a character didn’t matter, spike does.

I genuinely feel so bad for the actor portraying Vicious. It's not his fault they wrote him to be a limp noodle.

You really should had left the rest of the scene, Vicious screaming like an cartoon villain and Spike just leaving a sniper rifle on the rooftop regardless of their money problems is just PERFECT.

Both Viciouses are vicious like dogs. Anime Vicious is vicious as a drug Lord's pitbull and Live action Vicious is vicious as a rich woman's chuwawa.

It's funny how live-action Vicious is more cartoony than the actual cartoon 🤣

In this live action version, Vicious is very emotional, his facial expressions show every little thought in his mind. In the anime, you wouldn't know what he was thinking and how he would react to certain events: that made him a menacing and scary character. A cold, smart assassin was portrayed as an emotional, insecure, immature-with-daddy-issues child. The character was totally destroyed by the writers of this Netflix series. PS: You forgot to include the part where he answers a phone saying: "mochi, mochi..." It was so painful to watch.

Anime Vicious: "Only thing people understand is violence, and I will give it to them. The weak will not survive." Live Action Vicious: "Daddy, why don't you wove me?"

Re-watching the anime to truly enjoy a masterpiece again 😌

He reminds me of Lucia's Malfoy

I watched the anime version lately Episode 5 stood out to me the most recently and it's doubt my favorite episode now but when I see- I uhhh feel both physically and mental pain from viewing this

The sad thing is that if you change the dialogue a bit and have Vicious not over act this scene would have been decent, and if they kept a more serious tone throughout the show people wouldn't be complaining much about, it would still prob be considered inferior to the original but people would've seen it as an honest attempt.

Vicious has a comedic face. Specially when he smiles. 10/10

It cut off at the most cringe moment ever, where Vicious yells "FEEEAAARRRLEEESSSSS". OMG it was hard to see that...One of the worst moments in cinema since Darth Vadars "NOOOOOOO"

Imagine vicious shocked………..like …no

Netflix writers: "Wow this cartoon is so deep and grown-up! You know what would make it better? Change the medium to live-action - the only medium for grown-ups - and turn these complex characters into shallow, childish parodies!"

That CAN'T be Vicious. 🤦

I haven't seen the anime, but even from a standard filmmaking standpoint this acting is just baffling

Vicious isn't the badass villain anymore.....in this show he's much like a spoiled brat and a typical villain.

This scene almost single handedly made me hate the live action

So why’d they make Vicious have daddy issues

Oh no! It's "FEARLESS"!....Pfft!! 😆 🤣

spike accidentally brought his airsoft gun

I don't even understand physics really but I understand Spike reloading and Vicious looking over and dodging his head all before a sniper shot lands is bonkers.

I think you meant " The Ballad of a cheap imitation of a truly magnificent piece of work"

"any man who must say I AM THE KING is no true king" Tywin Lannister.

Vicious, Faye, Julia(actress was ok, but that ending? Seriously?), and Gren were all what ruined the chances of a second season… there were pieces of the LA show I liked, but there just wasnt enough of the good times to let this go on. John Cho, you are welcome to reprise the role of Spike if they magically find a new writer and reboot itself.

I remember watching this with my dad and he went "Why the hell did he leave the gun behind when he can barely afford crap?"

I like the pimple/ wart/ lipoma on his nose. That is what I want from a live action adaptation! Actors who look worse than the average cosplayer. I also love how they turned a cold-hearted killing machine like Vicious into basically Infinite "I am NOT weak!". I like that because it is so much more real. And as we all know, fictional characters in a neon-noir/ western/ space opera need to be as real as possible, while also being capable of fighting off twenty guards ALONE, with no more than two, maybe three guards attacking at once. What a dumbster fire of a show. But at least one that's easy to make fun of.

Anime Vicious: "And you will shed tears of scarlet..." Netflix Vicious: "Moshi moshi..."

Spike and Vicious will never do this to each other. They're not some sort of bad versus good they were bestfriends turned enemies. They're bad blood is more than some petty power struggle it's personal (because of a woman and the syndicate). Deeeply personal. That's why Spike will never settle things with Vicious this way nor Vicious for the matter.

"Moshi moshi" - Vicious

Imagine turning one of the coolest shootouts in anime history into this.

Lady's and Gentelman the name of the show in 2021 is Cowgirl Bebop because we the writers say so.

Warning bullet 😂

They really took "his name is Vicious, WE HAVE TO MAKE HIM VICIOUS ALL THE TIME" and ran with it all the way into "PetulantAngryManChild."

Whoever did this goat status

Haven't seen the live-action but this Vicious is acting like he has some serious insecurities about everything. Anime Vicious would have doubtless danced Spike even without the sindicate behind him, while not minding much if the gowns do the work for him. He wouldn't have started to say stuff about the sindicate while raging and making faces in his car.

“scared fearless”

I feel pain watching this

Can you imagine him singing the peaches song, but instead says Julia

Saw a tweet comparing this version of Viscous with Geralt if he got into Crypto

The anime is perfection! How can you mess it up?!

That's not vicious that's draco malfoy going through an emo phase.

Anime's green bird scenario foretells a man's past in a matter of seconds.

It's almost like the director of the live action decided he could make a better version of Vicious by completely changing who he is.....but alas he failed miserably.

Late to the party but I love how they went out of their way to show he was ready to send a followup shot but... i guess chose not to for some reason...

It works surprisingly well. Damn.

God I like this scene

This was so bad that instead of being mad i just find it hillarious looool

lmao what happend here that sniper bullet just bounced off his cheek

I think that even if KZfaq still allowed dislikes it would have been most as bad as this episode

Vicious would never say something like that.

Vicious was a loser. Chaining him up like animal was his punishment for his betrayal, taking Spike's girl, killing the Syndicate's elders even his father.

This version of Vicious looks like a child trying to do a poker face

What they did to Vicious character was Vicious

I couldn’t stop thinking how dumb this decision was

A lot of people blame the actors for the failure of this production but I whole heartedly blame the writers and whoever else contributed to butchering the greatest anime of all time. Actors have one job to act out a script they are given and for what it’s worth the guy who played Jet did a great job

Its ok guys this show was supposed to be bad the writers said so.

This scene made me drop the live action.

Spike will never use any sniper he just kill on spot

So Netflix Vicious is Lord Farquaad

What episode is thiiis i think i missed it

Live action anime is never gonna be as good as the real deal, with this they massacred our boy!

I'm so fking glad this got canceled. I don't think I wouldve been able to survive the cringe that Edward will end up being.

Why does he look like Lord Farquaad if he dyed his hair silver?

So basically….they turned Vicious into Kylo Ren….

Look how they massacred my boy.

I feel bad for these actors… THIS ISNT REAL

Man, the acting, it is painfull to watch!

I'm confused, are they trying to portray Vicious or Malfoy's dad from Harry Potter?

I dont feel like this audio matches very well with the scene

how he is aiming with his right eye ?

i shouldve known better after the death note live action

0:05 it's me or there IS a problem with the suit here ??

I'm glad I didn't get this far.

Mooshy Mooshy?

Can anyone comparing to Bowser

在动漫这段音乐响起来的时候是spike如临死之人想起自己生前所有浪漫的事情的一个回溯，但是green bird在这里再响起的时候，就像是这个子弹想要浪漫一下。非常莫名其妙。

That song placement was so awful, it's like someone was waiting there with a mouse a clicking play on an mp3 file.

The new one was enjoyable in a strange way . The problem starts if you start to compare it to the original.

In netflix CB everyone needs to prove something. Vicious is a repressed gay who needs to prove he's macho, so he kill everyone (and he is very angry, so fragile his masculinity, very deep Netflix). Faye is the typical annoying drunk woman who needs to prove she is strong despite being a woman (Pretty misogynist Wokeflix...original faye was strong. period). Julia is a confused young lady with bottox who needs to prove she's not tied to the problems of men and can take power if she wants and if the writers allow it. I could go on but I have other things to do.

scared potter?

I love the anime and haven't seen the live action yet. Please don't tell me that's supposed to be Vicious...please...

Jesus fucking christ I hate this shit, Vicious would never show such an emotion. Only time he showed any emotion at all was a slight smile at Spike when talking about their past

Absolutely horrendous

Vicious its like a power ranger rita

I've never had to describe a flaming dumpster fire filled with human excrement, but if i did I would say "ever seen bebop live action?"

Lmao Vicious looking like Lucius Malfoy

I mean Denethor is his dad 😂

Watching this without knowing the original must be a bit cringe, but watching knowing the original is like being witness of a cold-blooded murder. I get that adapting something like cow boy bebop is difficult since it could be considered a masterpiece, but how they managed to ruin it like this is beyond my comprehension.

We can call his viscous. The worst. No personality

Legendary Anime should be left alone. No spin offs, no live action, nothing.. Everything Hollywood and modern Cinema touches these days turns to crap. I dont know why, but like 99% of them are are just bad.

They should have shown Vicious less in the adaptation, and in the scenes they showed only have him be portrayed as a badass antagonist and not some wimp

Wtf did they do

Jesus, the music feels so out of place

Christ I hate what they did to Vicious...

This live action. Vicious version reminds me of Netflix death note L. Now imagine in the anime L and vicious were up against eachother it would have been very interesting the police work and the cut throating action or intelligence behind those two. Now put netflix L and Vicious and you got two angry kids in the daycare fighting 😑

But why tho, why treat the villain like bumbling idiot, he reminds me of the thugs from home alone
