Cowboy Bebops transposed ending Many people consider Cowboy Bebop a classic some think it is an over rated show others claim it to be genius. What ever your mould you cant say that there is no effort put into this show. It defies the laziness of majority of exposition in Anime these days and even back then. To really grasp this understanding you need to watch Cowboy Bebop Session XX: MishMash Blues. The problem with reviewing this is purely that its one episode long it isnt directly apart of the original series but it has the same goal in thought and style. It is accompanied by a small cast of people talking over scenes in the first half of Cowboy Bebop. But its not to try and sound smart or to expound some amazing truth yet there is a lot of great lines in the episode it is unique in experience. If you call yourself a Cowboy Bebop fan and you havent seen this episode I question your loyalty. If you have never heard of it I know for a fact you will do everything you can to track it down. Because it is a nugget of gold within the mind of Cain Kuga the writer of Cowboy Bebop. It was originally used as an alternative ending to the series to support the battle against violence in Japan they aired the episode to call for hiatus on the series and gives you a glimpse into the future of the series. In the end of the episode it cries out for the completion of the series by ending on the words of This Is Not The End. You Will See The Real Cowboy Bebop Someday The problem with this episode is that it is extremely difficult to come by since it was not released on any form it only aired on TV in 1998. But it is certainly not impossible to come by you just have to search enough. Someone once told me that if you really care about something you would be able to do what you need to grasp at everything and anything that would show how much you care. Nothing is impossible to find if you really want to find it. The episode itself is just a compilation of previous episodes which requires you to have watched those episodes I recommend watching this episode after episode 12 as it is when it is set to fit into the fandom of Cowboy Bebop. This episode is quite low on my list because of its structure and to rate it is pretty much just for exposure. Yet for the uniqueness of the episode it deserves some recognition in regards to its efforts to support a social problem and also not forgetting the fans of Cowboy Bebop in those efforts.
