Summary: Cowboy Beebop is Awesome
Review: Really. And thats all I need say about the 6 DVD set released in the United States. I wanted to buy one today, used, and what is advertised isn't the same as the knock off cheap import 3 DVD sets that are actually offered for sale.

HELLO! These imported cheap 3 DVD sets are ILLEGAL for sale in the UNITED STATES. I would think that Amazon would care that their quoted region 1, legal 6 dvd set was being used by illegally reproducing sellers who don't seem to care that they are forcing Amazon.com to commit a crime by advertising their ILLEGAL products in this forum.

Please point me to the LEGAL United States region 1 6dvd set that is advertised here. The cheap knock off 3 or 4 dvd sets just won't do.

Summary: if you like anime then you already own this set
Review: this is one of the greatest animes i've seen it's got a mixture of everything and the animation is just awsome. i've heard some people compare it to other animes even being called a rip off of Lupin the 3rd which to me makes no sense because in no way is this anime like Lupin escept for the fact that they're both animated and there's sexual humor in them. anyway, Bebop has the perfect mix of humor, drama, suspense, sci-fi, action, and romance. it's the perfect addition to anyones anime collection and is totally worth the price that amazon sells it for.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A true masterpiece of a series.
Review: As you've probably heard before, this series is extremely well made: cool music, good fight scenes, pretty good characters. It has great action, humor, story lines, and even some romance. Since I'm learning Chinese, I bought the Chinese DVD version from E-Bay for very little money. And I think they have US DVD versions (new) for a lot cheaper there too. It's defenately worth checking out. I love the series, but I'm personally not willing to pay THIS kind of money for it.

Summary: Jazz never looked so good
Review: There has not been an anime sountrack that has fit so well into the atmosphere of the actual show like Bebop. A description of the show is actually quite simple. A ragtag group of bounty hunters (cowboys) flying through space collecting bounties. THe thing is, the past of these 4 cowboys is virtually unknown in the beginning. But as the series progresses, the past is revealed and the depth of the characters is shown. Starts off with Spike (former syndicate operative) and Jet (former ISSP(police) officer). Jet owns the renovated ship Bebop, and together track and capture bounties. On one of their hunts they had to find Ein (data dog), but decided to keep him. Then came Faye (awoken for deep sleep). She mistook Spike to be someone who was suppose to give her a chip and have her debt (in excess of thirty million wulongs). But she escaped and joined the crew. Ed (savant and female) helped them with a hunt, and in return was given the ok to join the crew. This is an awsome anime and features great graphics and Spike doing Jeet Ku Do (the martial arts created by Bruce Lee). Also check out the Movie. Definitly a top 5 anime contender, no mater your preference.

Summary: Amazing
Review: Cowboy BeBop is the greatest anime series I have ever seen. Ever. The music, language, art, characters, setting, and fight scenes all go together perfectly. Everything works.

The sense of mystery in all of the main characters' pasts keeps you wanting more and more of the series. The main element is the music. The music just ties every single other element of the series together. It would not be the same without Yoko Kano's beautiful compositions. (one word: GENIUS.)

It's so powerful, it'll make all you sensitive ones cry. (Worked on me.)

If I was to give you any advice, it would be this:
Buy it. And watch it. Or watch it. Then buy it. Either way, do it. You won't be sorry.

Summary: My All Time Favorite Anime
Review: This is the best anime series imo, its AWSOME! Even if your not a big anime fan I would suggest trying this one out!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Michael Jordan of ANIME!!!
Review: Cowboy Bebop is like Michael Jordan in his prime and the other animes are like out of shape midgets trying to dribble a basketball. It's true! Cowboy Bebop is by far the best Anime out there ever produced, the other animes don't even come close.

I love the well-crafted storyline. You get bits and pieces of the whole picture until everything comes together at the end. By then, you wish you can write a story like that!

The characters are awesome. Spike Rocks! The Bushy hair and the weird blue shoes. You know you are watching the coolest anime on Earth when the writers and designers goes against popular culture and still make it hip. Heroes can't have blue shoes and hair like that! They are suppose to have long straight angular hair in bright colors! Not so, says Cowboy Bebop!

Music is terrific. I am already familar with many of the songs and know them by name. I don't remember any other show that made me do that. Get the whole DVD collection. It is well worth your hard earned money. Repeated viewing guaranteed.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: LONG SHIPPING
Review: This item takes FOREVER to ship. I was expecting to wait a month for it but then amazon sent me a delay shipping thing and now i have to wait another month. But the product itself makes up for it because it is truly at the top of its class in anime and to me is second to no one.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Bebop deserves better than this DVD set
Review: Let me start by saying that this review deals specifically with the "Cowboy Bebop - The Perfect Sessions (Limited Edition Complete Series Boxed Set)" DVD and not the show itself. Cowboy Bebop is one of the best anime series ever created, and any one considering buying this DVD set already knows that.

What you might not know is that the video and audio quality of the episodes on this set is horrendous. There is serious artifacting, the result of over-compression. It's most obvious during the action scenes. The fast moving images turn into blocky, pixilated blurs as the transfer sacrifices clarity for the sake of saving on ones and zeros. You will definitely notice the lack of quality in the video. After all, the action scenes are some of the best parts of Bebop, right?

Audiophiles that have seen the sessions on the six-set DVD collection will notice that the sound quality is lacking as well on this set. Another reviewer of this set reports that the sound quality has been reduced from dolby digital to dolby pro-logic. But, again, the music and sound are an important part of Bebop and should not be sacrificed.

The only reason that you should buy this set is if you don't care *at all* about quality. Perhaps you have your DVD player connected to an old black and white television with blown out speakers. If not, steer clear of this release.

Frankly I'm surprised that this product was released at all. Bebop deserves better, and so do Bebop fans.
