Okay, so I know I'm about to speak blasphemy, but...I didn't like Cowboy Bebop. There was so much hype around it and everyone insisted that I watch it, even though it's a genre that doesn't usually appeal to me. I finally gave it a chance and I was bored to tears. I didn't feel any connection to the characters, so I didn't care what happened to them. The only characters I kind of liked were Ed and Ein, and they weren't in it enough. It had it's moments, but as a whole I just don't understand the hype.
The soundtrack, on the other hand, was amazing.
I'm actually trying to watch Cowboy Bebop, but I am not a space type of person, I really can't get into shows that evolve around space, so I can understand a bit. I dare say I'm interested in one or two of the characters but that's about it.
