RE: A Shirt on Sunday: Cowboy Bebop

in #shirtonsunday7 years ago

I've not got into anime yet. I may have been put off by some stuff I've seen like the Pokemon series my son used to watch, which is truly terrible, but then I have enjoyed some of the Studio Ghibli movies. We even went to their 'studio' when we were in Tokyo as my daughter is a big fan. I know there's a whole load of Japanese animation out there to explore. I'll see if I can catch this somewhere.

I do remember VCD, but never saw many of them. I think most DVD players can handle them. I did look into transferring DVDs onto CD at one stage and had to learn about the various formats and bit rates.

BTW You spelt Neil Young wrong :(

I do like the Ghibli films although I only have the Mayazaki and Takahat stuff (and Red Turtle). For me they're what Disney should be doing, rather than just princess-based merchandising vehicles.

Disney seems to be about what toys they can sell rather than telling stories, but some of theirs are okay. I don't get to see them all now the kids are older. There's some anime on Netflix, so I will see what I can find.

I think Bebop is on Netflix - it was for a while. Ajin is interesting (I've not seen series 2), whilePsycho-Pass is a great piece of dystopian fiction.
