Cowboy Bebop.
One of the best anime ever I cant even explain it. It all starts out in the year 2071, its the future. People have the capability of living on other planets such as Venus and Mars. The main character is Spike Spiegel an former member of "Red Dragons" a chinese mafia group. But he ran away from the group in search of a better life with his lover, Julia. But as you find out Julia didnt go with him, to scared to run thinking they will get caught and Spike ran away alone.
Now he is a bounty hunter with his good friend Jet Black. A bounty hunter are people in search of bountys or criminals so they try to get money.They have their own space ship called the "Bebop." Well Spike throughout the series has past thoughts about Julia and his rivial Vicious. Wich was Julia's boyfriend but she liked Spike the whole time. Well along the way of bounting hunting and going back and forth of past thoughts and relationships for both Jet and Spike. They meet a few other people and a dog that joins up with the team.
Ein, a Welsh Corgi which comes in the second episode. He really is a "data dog" which was developed by a certain research group. Supposedly his trade price is astronomical.
Another person that joins them is Faye Valentine a alluring very good looking lady. You will find out she has a very bad past of gambling and debts to pay. She also is very headstrong.
The next person is is Edward or Ed a 13 year old girl at first i didnt think it was a girl though. She is a genuis into hacking in computers and she is the humorous character she is very spontaneous and hyper. All together they come and go.
This is a must have set!

Great anime, inconsiderate release...
I love Cowboy Bebop! This series definately ranks on my top 10 favorite anime list. It has cool action, fun characters, awesome music, good animation, AND touching meaningful stories (yet in no way sappy) which is something that most action shows miss out on. This is definately a well-rounded show that in every way deserves a 5-star rating. BUT, the only thing I give 3-stars for is this release. And it gets the 3-stars for content alone, because the show is awesome. What I didn't like about this release was that the show released this box set, even after dedicated fans purchased all individual releases, and the company would not be willing to release the extras or the box seperately for purchase. It's kind of like saying, sure if you buy it twice we'll reward you. Well, no thanks. I know there are some who might agree with me and some who really won't care (especially if they never bought any CB DVDs yet..). But anyway, oh well it's just one of those things. You must buy this if you haven't seen Cowboy Bebop or if you have yet to purchase any of the series (lucky you gets the extras). If you already have the DVDs, well you can buy this if you have extra money to spend or if you are really *really* a devoted CB fan. Regardless this is a solid series and you will not be disappointed at all. Please support COWBOY BEBOP, you won't regret it!

A masterwork of the animated medium
Cowboy Bebop has been, since it's release in 1998, the bar by which every new anime series is judged by. It's just that good. Many have described it as 1970's cop show-meets western-meets high-quality drama-meets film-noir, and I am gonna have to agree with them.

Cowboy Bebop revolves around futuristic bounty hunters Spike Spiegel and Jet Black, and the series is really just their exploits through the universe. Along the way, they meet female bounty hunter Faye Valentine, computer hacker Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky 4th (simply Ed for short), data dog Ein, and various bounties and figures from their past.

The beauty of Cowboy Bebop is that although the show does have a recurring story based around Spike's past, this is more or less tossed aside for "filler" episodes, or one episode storylines. Through filler episodes, we make a very strong bond and attachment to these characters, and it makes the ending to it all the more heartfelt.

When I watch Cowboy Bebop, I really do feel what happens to the characters. You feel sympathy and plight, happiness and joy, sadness and sorrow. You care about the characters, and I commend the staff who worked on the series for doing this. Very few anime series have characters for whom you can actually relate to, build bonds to emotionally, and frankly, give a damn about. Cowboy Bebop pulls it off with elegance and grace, as if it were nothing.

All in all, Cowboy Bebop is one of the best anime ever created, hands down. it has excellent characters, wonderful storylines, beautiful animation, and mesmorizing locales. It remains to be one of my favorites of all time.
