Happy birthday J Dilla.
Happy Birthday Nujabes.

today is a blessed day

@lotodantes dude, samurai champloo is a god tier anime.

@[chase dreams] i've never watched it

@hawk yes. Greek playwirhgt Aristophenes wrote a play about women and weak men having all the power, and it resulted in communism and societal collapse

@[chase dreams] although i've seen some Cowboy Bebop

I highkey want to write a essay on Champloo's influence in the anime and the hip hop community.

I love spike

watch both, my man

Shiki no Uta, Battlecry, Aruarian Dance, all of it

But my anime hero is and will ever be: Hachiman.

do it @[chase dreams]

Dude, Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo are two of the greatest anime of all time.

@felldie1496 Oregairu?

@Five, Seven, and Two Yeah

@felldie1496 Now that’s a dude that takes social suicide to a nuclear level. Fucking baller.

my favorite thing about Bebop (also in Champloo) are the "casualties." broken people who are down here, on the ground, dealing with things out of their control. and it's not always a happy ending, either.

right from the first episode of Bebop, with that woman

@Five, Seven, and Two To be honest, i've done it a couple times...

And it felt good asf

@lotodantes First episode was with the red eye drug, right?

yeah

I always liked seeing those "casualties."

that sure, we have protagonists and lofty ambitions and interplanetary organizations and space battles

but there's also small people who get left behind here on the ground

Bebop has space battles and explosions and lasers, but there's also martial arts on the ground. I like that

@lotodantes Nice, i will see them both then

Although i haven't watched every chapter of CB, i like that Spike is stoic as fuck

lol yep

there's one episode where he thinks he's going to die, and in this situation where he can't do anything. so he lights a cigarette and says "whatever happens, happens."

lol don't spoil me 😦 xd

My philosophy when shit goes sideways.

If you haven't watched it, you need to drop what you're doing, leave work/school, and go binge it

💯

did you hear Netflix is doing a 10-episode live-action Cowboy Bebop?

I won't spoil anything but spike's stoicism is actually at the center of his character's story.

it's going to be shit

@lotodantes Please, no.

I heard. And I don't fucking like it.

yeah they've already got producers and directors and showrunners working on it

Another anime character you should see is this dude: Ayanokouji
