Few shows evoke the type of "feeling" this one did. TH-camrs have analyzed it to death, which is fine, but there's a certain emotion and weight to the series that transcends description. For many of us, Cowboy Bebop is more than simply what it's about.
@@LexieAssassin It was only until recently I discovered the meaning behind only one of the eagles having an eye, totally bad ass and fits the 40k narrative so well.
There ones was a tiger striped cat. This cat died a million deaths, revived and lived a million lives, he was owned by various people who he didn't really care for, The cat wasn't afraid to die. Then one day the cat became a stray cat, which meant that he was free. He meet a beautiful white cat, and the two spent their days together happily. Well, years pass and the white cat grew weak and died of old age. The tiger striped cat cried a million times, and then he died too. Except this time, he didn't come back to life...
Spike: Years ago, back when I was much younger, I was afraid of nothing. I had not the slightest fear of death. I was ready to die anytime. But then I met a special woman. She made me want to go on living. For the first time, I was afraid of death. A feeling I’d never had before.
I can't get enough of Cowboy bebop. I watch it every year and each time is better than the last. As I get older I get more understanding to the themes and meanings of the serie and it grew on me so much .
Never have more true words been spoken! The first time I watched it, I was like, hey that's a pretty good show. But somehow now, months after watching it the first time it drew me back. The music (and I personally LOVE jazz anyways), the atmosphere, the topics, the character discovery. Top notch, it really grows on you over time and you understand better which every time you watch the series and every year you live longer and get more mature...

I fell in love with Cowboy Bebop at only 12 years old. As little as I was, this sang to the sadness deep in gash of my own heart. I’m 35 now and I’ve started rewatching it. I still feel the same. The difference is that I now understand what I have mourned all my life: my innocence.

This video has been put together quite thoughtfully. 3 texts for the lyrics, iconic picture in the background,along with other stills. And the end episode titles at the end of this song was the finishing stroke. Thanks a ton for making this video.
“A life soaked in muddy water, isnt so bad, if it ends after the first time” The hope of a better after... I believe that better after is real, when you have a hope of eternal joy and peace, maybe the muddy water of this present life isn't so bad after all...
This anime is like, one by one when you watch the episode, know the characters and their past and the choices they make, you realize that the anime is like a Sunset that is tragic but beautiful at the same time... Filled with past memories and dreams.
Session #11 Toys in the Attic My favorite lessons of the episode If you see a stranger, follow him. - Ed Don't leave stuff in the fridge - Spike Lesson that touched me the most in the series You guessed it, You're gonna carry that weight..
@@ietaka8480 Even that boring lackluster episode has a message in it “Procrastination is something we should take seriously”, goes to show how even the most boring episodes have a meaning in Cowboy Bebop
The vibe both the anime and this song gives away is just so goood. I can’t help but feel melancholic, it’s a cocktail of so many feelings which kinda take you far on a journey
I ending Cowbow Bebop yesterday, and this really dont go away from my mind. I love this show so much and I appreciate every single episode. Thank you and see you Space Cowboy.
This bring me back to my childhood at 12 back 1999, and staying up for Toonami on Cartoon Network. Wow this song has been my favorite for years and all emotions. Life is not easy but we make it and " not carry all that weight" alone.
We all here are carrying our own weight. And that's all Spike's blame. He ain't dead. Nah-ah. He can't. He is just resting. He found peace. Exactly as he said to Faye.
Endgame Summary In Session 1, Laughing Bull foretells of Spike's death being brought on by a woman. Laughing Bull: Swimming bird will meet a woman. The bird will be hunted by this woman. And then death. Spike: One more time. Laughing Bull: What's that? Spike: I was killed once before by a woman. Spike is speaking of Julia. Losing her love was so painful as to be considered a form of death. He was left in a detached dream-like purgatory from that day on. In Session 26, Julia is shot in front of Spike. White doves fly by in slow motion. Horror, shock, and agony are expressed in Spike's left eye. He screams her name, drops his weapon, and runs to her. He takes her in his arms. Hears her last words, which are inaudible to the audience. Spike looks down at his lost love and then up to the sky. The camera is now focused on Spike's right eye, which is shaking in a disturbing manner. The camera zooms into Spike's pupil and everything fades to black. The next scene is of Laughing Bull predicting Spike's imminent death. Holding Julia's coat, Vicious speaks of Spike. Vicious: A beast that has lost his place. He has nowhere to return to now. He will come. Vicious is both right and wrong. Spike will come, but he does have somewhere to return to one last time. Two rose petals are shown blowing away in the wind. Spike returns to the Bebop and tells Jet a story. An allegory about his life which he uses to explain why he will never return. Spike: There once was a tiger striped cat. This cat died a million deaths, revived and lived a million lives, and he was owned by various people who he didn't really care for. The cat wasn't afraid to die. Then one day the cat became a stray cat, which meant he was free. He met a white female cat, and the two of them spent their days together happily. Well, years passed, and the white cat grew weak and died of old age. The tiger striped cat cried a million times, and then he died too. Except this time, he didn't come back to life. Jet is keenly aware that Spike's death looms in the horizon. He is wary of the tale's implications. When Spike gets up to leave, Jet asks him one last question. Jet: Is it for the girl? Spike: [beat] She's dead. There's nothing I can do for her now. This is true. Julia is dead. There is nothing Spike can do for her. This does not lessen the impact she has on the events that are about to unfold. Jet understands this. Upon hearing of Julia's death, he has a resigned if devastated reaction. He knows exactly what this means for Spike. Faye confronts Spike while holding him at gunpoint. She knows that he is marching towards his death. Faye: Where are you going? Why, are you going? You told me once, to forget the past, ‘cause it doesn’t matter, but you’re the one still tied to the past, Spike! Spike does not deny this. Instead, he explains the truth about his eyes. The camera spans from his left eye to his right eye. Spike: Look at my eyes, Faye. One of them is a fake because I lost it in an accident. Since then, I've been seeing the past in one eye and the present in the other. So, I thought I could only see patches of reality, never the whole picture. Faye: Don’t tell me things like that; you’ve never told me anything about yourself, so don’t tell me now! Spike: I felt like I was watching a dream I could never wake up from. Before I knew it, the dream was all over. This is not the first time Spike has expressed this sentiment. One of his most revelatory quotes was said in the teaser for Ballad of Fallen Angels. Spike: The music box is broken, or is it? It starts to play, and a haunting tune fills the air. I wake suddenly from my dream. There is no music box! And yet there it is. A tiny one nestled in my hand. And I awaken from my dream again. As if I were peeling an onion. It’s a dream no matter how far I go. I can never reach reality. Trapped in an endless nightmare. Spike is so affected by the loss of the woman he loves that even an item she once possessed haunts him. It is her death that has finally woken him from his detached dream-like state. Faye shares with Spike that her memory has returned. She explains that there was nowhere for her to go back to. She pleads with him to stay. Spike ignores her please and instead leaves her with these parting words. Spike: I’m not going there to die; I’m going to find out if I’m really alive. I have to do it, Faye. Faye is not comforted by this statement. The audience should not be comforted either. Spike's words eerily echo what Jet said to him in session 25. Jet: Men only think about the past right before their death, as if they were searching frantically for proof that they were alive. Faye cries and shoots off her gun. An act reminiscent of the 21-gun salute that is used in the military to honor the fallen. Spike walks away from Faye without looking back. He is never shown thinking about anyone from the Bebop again. The song "See You Space Cowboy" plays as Spike leaves the Bebop. "Everything is already over", You say with closed ears The words only flow Towards a tomorrow without peace "There's nothing that won't change" Even if my life ends This love will not disappear It's something that will live forever Even if dreams are hidden in darkness I got a rainbow Rainbow in your hands... The camera focuses on Spike's left eye. The eye that sees Spike's past. The lyrics begin as Spike is recalling romantic memories of Julia. He thinks of the first time he saw Julia and was captivated by her beauty. He thinks of a time when he made love to Julia and she cradled him in her arms. Given that Spike confided to Jet just the previous session that Julia was a part of him, the image shows a moment in Spike's life when he felt whole. Spike: She was a piece of me I had lost. She is my other half that I had longed for. The song continues to play as Spike attacks the syndicate. It is a ballad of undying love alluding to lovers being reunited in the afterlife. When Spike faces off against his hated rival, Vicious makes a proclamation. Vicious: So, you're finally awake. I told you before, Spike. I'm the only one who can kill you and set you free. Spike does not deny this. But makes a proclamation of his own. Spike: Those words apply to you as well, Vicious. During their fight, there comes a moment where the two disarm each other by swapping weapons. Vicious getting Spike's gun and Spike getting Vicious's katana. It is at this moment that Spike makes a statement of great significance to both men. Spike: Julia passed away. Let's end it all. Vicious: If that's your wish. The rivals return their weapons. Spike shoots Vicious but gets sliced across the abdomen. Vicious's death comes quickly, while Spike lingers as was foreshadowed. Vicious: Don't forget, a snake's venom poisons slowly after the bite. Spike watches Vicious's body fall to the ground, spends but a few seconds looking at him, then looks up to the night's sky. The camera is focused on Spike's right eye. Now calm. Spike sees Julia. This is the first time in the entire series that Spike is shown seeing Julia with his right eye. In session 13, during an auditory flashback, Spike and Julia discuss his eyes. Spike: My left eye sees the past. Julia: What about your right eye? We do not hear his response. In the penultimate scene of the series, we are specifically shown what Spike sees with his eye that sees his present. He sees her. In Spike's vision, Julia is cast in a white light. She says her last words to Spike, this time they are audible to the audience. Spike is shown reflected back in Julia's eye. He glumly concurs with her. Spike is then completely engulfed by a blinding white light. The scene fades to white. This light is reminiscent of the divine light that is cast upon a soul that is ready to ascend to heaven. Julia: It's all a dream. Spike: Yeah. Just a bad dream. From white we transition to the final scene of the series. It is now day. A white light is now cast over the entire syndicate. Spike smiles, points a finger gun at the remaining syndicate goons and says "bang". This is a callback to Wen from session 6. As Wen was dying he asked Spike if he understood the relief that came with one's own death. In response, Spike threw Wen's harmonica up in the air, pretended to shoot it while saying "bang", but then said "as if". When Spike says "bang" this time he is acknowledging that he now understands that relief. Spike falls to the ground. He is never shown moving again. White doves are shown flying over Spike's body. White doves also flew by Julia when she died. The camera follows an ascension into the heavens, while the song "Blue" plays. The song's lyrics allude to a soul ascending to heaven. Free Wanna be free Gonna be free And move among the stars You know, they really aren't so far Feels so free Gotta know free Please Don't wake me from the dream It's really everything it seems I'm so free No black and white in the blue Everything is clearer now Life is just a dream, you know That's never-ending I'm ascending At the end of the credits a star goes out but never falls. In session 13, Laughing Bull informs the audience to what a falling star truly is. Child: A star just fell from the sky. Laughing Bull: That is not an ordinary star, my son. That star is the tear of a warrior. A lost soul who has finished his battles somewhere on this planet. Child: What warrior is it? Laughing Bull: A pitiful soul who could not find his way to the lofty realm. Where the great spirit awaits us all. Given that the star we are shown does not fall, it is reasonable to infer that the soul the star belonged to did make its way to the great spirit that awaits us all. That soul has broken away from the cycle of death and rebirth and is never coming back. As was foreshadowed to happen to Spike in the fable of the tiger striped cat, who followed his love into death and never returned.
@@tamber706 Spike was actually just rewording what Jet had said to him earlier that day. “Men only think about the past right before their death, as if they were searching frantically for proof that they were alive.” -Jet Black
Spike: "Julia passed away. Let's end it all." Vicious: If that's your wish. Spike shoots Vicious in the heart. Vicious slices Spike across the abdomen. Spike looks up to the sky. For the first time in the entire series he sees Julia with his eye that sees his present. Julia is cast in a white glow. She tells him "It's all a dream." He agrees with her. He is engulfed in a blinding white light. The entire syndicate is cast in a white light
This is the first video I've seen on TH-cam since watching Bebop on Adult Swim that has the Japanese words spelled out in English. Thank you for doing this.
Fue un verdadero antes y después, luego de cowboy bebop no hubo nada igual ni tampoco nada mejor como ese canal que milagrosamente existió en el tiempo correcto,see you space cowboy
I remember the opening to Cowboy Bebop because, when I was a kid whenever it came on I knew it was bedtime. So I never actually sat down and went through an entire episode of the show before today. I decided a long time ago I wouldn't watch CB due to being majorly spoiled a few years ago. Today I decided I would watch the first two episodes and I got to the end of episode 1 and heard this and it was instant nostalgia, except I never heard this before. It has this haunting sound that reminds me of those nights where I did stay up to watch other shows like Inuyasha and Yu Yu Hakusho on Adult Swim. I love this.
I've never seen cowboy bebop and still have enjoyed this song for 15 years. This is the first time that I've read the translation. Yoko Kanno is a fucking genius
It’s a big part of the story a lot of people don’t pick up on. How each character is trying to work through the trauma they have experienced long before we ever met them
Jerome Bryant Jr. Honestly I’m glad he died, I’m not saying that I hate Spike. I just think that this shows not all animes have to have like 20 seasons to have a good ending.
Jerome Bryant Jr. watanabe said in an interview once that spike's future was for us to tell we could think whatever we wanted to that's why "you will carry that weight"
cowboy bebop just leaves this big feeling of emptiness behind which strangely also feels very heavy. i think it's very rare for other series to make one feel things which this show does
My favorite anime and the best show I ever experienced in a personal way the music inspire so much so I become a musician Cowboy Bebop will be in my heart forever
To be fair a lot of music is deep, the Japanese don't hold the rights to creative writing. Just look around deeper than the radio and there's plenty to find.
@@joshuavance1472 Joshua, Thank you for your compassion. His name was Robert and he had been battling health problems for quite some time. He lost his legs due to diabetes six years ago but he never lost his spirit.I intend to celebrate that while I mourn his passing. Again....Thank you.
When I was a kid I thought this and Samurai Champloo were crazy boring, I know, I had shit taste but now as an adult I'm able to appreciate their value.
@@Cuppamilky I actually did watch and enjoy those so i guess my taste wasn't totally shit though i don't really remember the end to Trigun so i guess I'll rewatch that

YES
Samurai Champloo and Gungrave has the same feelings attached.
And then there is Black Lagoon.
I experienced no feeling when I saw the first episode, so I just watched robot chicken instead.
Proof that even if tons of people like something, that’s doesn’t mean it’s for everyone 🤷🏾♀️
Its Cowboy Bebop's 20th anniversary!

@Sheldon Cooper I like to think that Cowboy Bebop and Carole and Tuesday share the same universe. (Screaming internally)

@@thomasjess5029 I like to think that Cyberpunk 2077 takes place in the same universe as Cowboy Bebop.

Do they mean it as See you space from cowboy or are they identifying him as space cowboy?
"With one eye I see tomorrow, and with one eye I look at yesterday."
Wow...that's Spike's eyes...
Now I love this song even more.
Reminds me of the Imperial Eagle in Warhammer 40k, only the one looking at yesterday is blind, iirc.
@@LexieAssassin It was only until recently I discovered the meaning behind only one of the eagles having an eye, totally bad ass and fits the 40k narrative so well.

The sad part is Spike leave none to look at his present and that how why he is end up like he did

後奏でカウボーイビバップの「本来全話放映されるはずだった」全26話のタイトルを並べるのは鎮魂歌みたいで切ないな。

I get extremely emotional listening to this because this anime wasn’t just a show...it was a nostalgic feeling like you were there living it...
Session #11 Toys in the Attic
My favorite lessons of the episode
If you see a stranger, follow him.
- Ed
Don't leave stuff in the fridge
- Spike
Lesson that touched me the most in the series
You guessed it,
You're gonna carry that weight..
Seriously tho the episode was really good.
on repeat in 2020...
ill be carrying that weight
It's forever
It’s only 35lbs, not like it’s that heavy. Do you even lift, bro?
One more to perfection... also man do I miss this show
Dylan Campbell facts brother ✊🏾
Dylan Campbell so do I
Showing the titles of all the episodes was a beautiful touch. A true fan. See you, Space Cowboy.
An unforgettable song from an unforgettable anime. RIP Keiko Nobumoto and RIP Spike Speigel.
I like how towards the end of the video when they show all of the episode titles to every session. Kudos.
they missed session 11 though -. -
@@liamvinck8705 ep 11 was just sci-fi/comedy/horror cowboy bebop spin-off but it was cool
@@ietaka8480 Even that boring lackluster episode has a message in it “Procrastination is something we should take seriously”, goes to show how even the most boring episodes have a meaning in Cowboy Bebop
Cowboy bebop, evangelion, serial experiments lain, texhnolyze and Monster. Five brutal animes i could see ever.
Amen brother
Amen cowboy
this is literally my top 4 mate. great taste
Great fucking taste
If you like something like serious story, i recommend such as "
wolves' rain"
or "darker than black", which are directed by the same person
When ı finished the anime only thing ı felt was loneliness:(
Same. Listening to this while lonely hits different. Or skip a few meals and give it a listen while hungry.
see you space cowboy ....thats all you need partner.
I fell the loneliness as well, it's been years since I finished;😞🍻
@arroz it is!
Gotta carry that weight
The vibe both the anime and this song gives away is just so goood. I can’t help but feel melancholic, it’s a cocktail of so many feelings which kinda take you far on a journey
Nice. Thanks for the translation. It's the most complete English version of this I've seen.
I ending Cowbow Bebop yesterday, and this really dont go away from my mind. I love this show so much and I appreciate every single episode. Thank you and see you Space Cowboy.
I use to have the words to this song memorized when I was a teenager. Back then I could sing this by heart.
I still dont even need the lyrics almost 20 years later, the stupid shit you memorize
Yeah, well, people will do a lot for the stupid shit they care about.
Can't get enough of this song . Just incredible . So much Nostalgia , sadness , love and hopelessness .
This bring me back to my childhood at 12 back 1999, and staying up for Toonami on Cartoon Network. Wow this song has been my favorite for years and all emotions. Life is not easy but we make it and " not carry all that weight" alone.
Why is this song not on Spotify with her singing it??? But that soul in her voice....I love it!
Actually, it's on Spotify
Been on there for a while now mate
this music is engraved in my heart and I will never forget this final scene
This is the BEST ending music in history
Obviusly
I concur!
We all here are carrying our own weight. And that's all Spike's blame.
He ain't dead.
Nah-ah.
He can't.
He is just resting. He found peace. Exactly as he said to Faye.
he went there to find out if he was really alive, and that's exactly what he did
Endgame Summary
In Session 1, Laughing Bull foretells of Spike's death being brought on by a woman.
Laughing Bull: Swimming bird will meet a woman. The bird will be hunted by this woman. And then death.
Spike: One more time.
Laughing Bull: What's that?
Spike: I was killed once before by a woman.
Spike is speaking of Julia. Losing her love was so painful as to be considered a form of death. He was left in a detached dream-like purgatory from that day on.
In Session 26, Julia is shot in front of Spike. White doves fly by in slow motion. Horror, shock, and agony are expressed in Spike's left eye. He screams her name, drops his weapon, and runs to her. He takes her in his arms. Hears her last words, which are inaudible to the audience.
Spike looks down at his lost love and then up to the sky. The camera is now focused on Spike's right eye, which is shaking in a disturbing manner. The camera zooms into Spike's pupil and everything fades to black.
The next scene is of Laughing Bull predicting Spike's imminent death.
Holding Julia's coat, Vicious speaks of Spike.
Vicious: A beast that has lost his place. He has nowhere to return to now. He will come.
Vicious is both right and wrong. Spike will come, but he does have somewhere to return to one last time.
Two rose petals are shown blowing away in the wind.
Spike returns to the Bebop and tells Jet a story. An allegory about his life which he uses to explain why he will never return.
Spike: There once was a tiger striped cat. This cat died a million deaths, revived and lived a million lives, and he was owned by various people who he didn't really care for. The cat wasn't afraid to die. Then one day the cat became a stray cat, which meant he was free. He met a white female cat, and the two of them spent their days together happily. Well, years passed, and the white cat grew weak and died of old age. The tiger striped cat cried a million times, and then he died too. Except this time, he didn't come back to life.
Jet is keenly aware that Spike's death looms in the horizon. He is wary of the tale's implications.
When Spike gets up to leave, Jet asks him one last question.
Jet: Is it for the girl?
Spike: [beat] She's dead. There's nothing I can do for her now.
This is true. Julia is dead. There is nothing Spike can do for her. This does not lessen the impact she has on the events that are about to unfold. Jet understands this. Upon hearing of Julia's death, he has a resigned if devastated reaction. He knows exactly what this means for Spike.
Faye confronts Spike while holding him at gunpoint. She knows that he is marching towards his death.
Faye: Where are you going? Why, are you going? You told me once, to forget the past, ‘cause it doesn’t matter, but you’re the one still tied to the past, Spike!
Spike does not deny this. Instead, he explains the truth about his eyes. The camera spans from his left eye to his right eye.
Spike: Look at my eyes, Faye. One of them is a fake because I lost it in an accident. Since then, I've been seeing the past in one eye and the present in the other. So, I thought I could only see patches of reality, never the whole picture.
Faye: Don’t tell me things like that; you’ve never told me anything about yourself, so don’t tell me now!
Spike: I felt like I was watching a dream I could never wake up from. Before I knew it, the dream was all over.
This is not the first time Spike has expressed this sentiment. One of his most revelatory quotes was said in the teaser for Ballad of Fallen Angels.
Spike: The music box is broken, or is it? It starts to play, and a haunting tune fills the air. I wake suddenly from my dream. There is no music box! And yet there it is. A tiny one nestled in my hand. And I awaken from my dream again. As if I were peeling an onion. It’s a dream no matter how far I go. I can never reach reality. Trapped in an endless nightmare.
Spike is so affected by the loss of the woman he loves that even an item she once possessed haunts him. It is her death that has finally woken him from his detached dream-like state.
Faye shares with Spike that her memory has returned. She explains that there was nowhere for her to go back to. She pleads with him to stay.
Spike ignores her please and instead leaves her with these parting words.
Spike: I’m not going there to die; I’m going to find out if I’m really alive. I have to do it, Faye.
Faye is not comforted by this statement. The audience should not be comforted either. Spike's words eerily echo what Jet said to him in session 25.
Jet: Men only think about the past right before their death, as if they were searching frantically for proof that they were alive.
Faye cries and shoots off her gun. An act reminiscent of the 21-gun salute that is used in the military to honor the fallen.
Spike walks away from Faye without looking back. He is never shown thinking about anyone from the Bebop again.
The song "See You Space Cowboy" plays as Spike leaves the Bebop.
"Everything is already over",
You say with closed ears
The words only flow
Towards a tomorrow without peace
"There's nothing that won't change"
Even if my life ends
This love will not disappear
It's something that will live forever
Even if dreams are hidden in darkness
I got a rainbow
Rainbow in your hands...
The camera focuses on Spike's left eye. The eye that sees Spike's past. The lyrics begin as Spike is recalling romantic memories of Julia. He thinks of the first time he saw Julia and was captivated by her beauty. He thinks of a time when he made love to Julia and she cradled him in her arms.
Given that Spike confided to Jet just the previous session that Julia was a part of him, the image shows a moment in Spike's life when he felt whole.
Spike: She was a piece of me I had lost. She is my other half that I had longed for.
The song continues to play as Spike attacks the syndicate. It is a ballad of undying love alluding to lovers being reunited in the afterlife.
When Spike faces off against his hated rival, Vicious makes a proclamation.
Vicious: So, you're finally awake. I told you before, Spike. I'm the only one who can kill you and set you free.
Spike does not deny this. But makes a proclamation of his own.
Spike: Those words apply to you as well, Vicious.
During their fight, there comes a moment where the two disarm each other by swapping weapons. Vicious getting Spike's gun and Spike getting Vicious's katana. It is at this moment that Spike makes a statement of great significance to both men.
Spike: Julia passed away. Let's end it all.
Vicious: If that's your wish.
The rivals return their weapons. Spike shoots Vicious but gets sliced across the abdomen.
Vicious's death comes quickly, while Spike lingers as was foreshadowed.
Vicious: Don't forget, a snake's venom poisons slowly after the bite.
Spike watches Vicious's body fall to the ground, spends but a few seconds looking at him, then looks up to the night's sky. The camera is focused on Spike's right eye. Now calm.
Spike sees Julia. This is the first time in the entire series that Spike is shown seeing Julia with his right eye.
In session 13, during an auditory flashback, Spike and Julia discuss his eyes.
Spike: My left eye sees the past.
Julia: What about your right eye?
We do not hear his response.
In the penultimate scene of the series, we are specifically shown what Spike sees with his eye that sees his present. He sees her.
In Spike's vision, Julia is cast in a white light. She says her last words to Spike, this time they are audible to the audience. Spike is shown reflected back in Julia's eye. He glumly concurs with her. Spike is then completely engulfed by a blinding white light. The scene fades to white. This light is reminiscent of the divine light that is cast upon a soul that is ready to ascend to heaven.
Julia: It's all a dream.
Spike: Yeah. Just a bad dream.
From white we transition to the final scene of the series. It is now day. A white light is now cast over the entire syndicate.
Spike smiles, points a finger gun at the remaining syndicate goons and says "bang".
This is a callback to Wen from session 6. As Wen was dying he asked Spike if he understood the relief that came with one's own death. In response, Spike threw Wen's harmonica up in the air, pretended to shoot it while saying "bang", but then said "as if". When Spike says "bang" this time he is acknowledging that he now understands that relief.
Spike falls to the ground. He is never shown moving again. White doves are shown flying over Spike's body. White doves also flew by Julia when she died.
The camera follows an ascension into the heavens, while the song "Blue" plays. The song's lyrics allude to a soul ascending to heaven.
Free
Wanna be free
Gonna be free
And move among the stars
You know, they really aren't so far
Feels so free
Gotta know free
Please
Don't wake me from the dream
It's really everything it seems
I'm so free
No black and white in the blue
Everything is clearer now
Life is just a dream, you know
That's never-ending
I'm ascending
At the end of the credits a star goes out but never falls.
In session 13, Laughing Bull informs the audience to what a falling star truly is.
Child: A star just fell from the sky.
Laughing Bull: That is not an ordinary star, my son. That star is the tear of a warrior. A lost soul who has finished his battles somewhere on this planet.
Child: What warrior is it?
Laughing Bull: A pitiful soul who could not find his way to the lofty realm. Where the great spirit awaits us all.
Given that the star we are shown does not fall, it is reasonable to infer that the soul the star belonged to did make its way to the great spirit that awaits us all.
That soul has broken away from the cycle of death and rebirth and is never coming back. As was foreshadowed to happen to Spike in the fable of the tiger striped cat, who followed his love into death and never returned.
@@tamber706 Spike was actually just rewording what Jet had said to him earlier that day. “Men only think about the past right before their death, as if they were searching frantically for proof that they were alive.” -Jet Black
Spike: "Julia passed away. Let's end it all."
Vicious: If that's your wish.
Spike shoots Vicious in the heart.
Vicious slices Spike across the abdomen.
Spike looks up to the sky.
For the first time in the entire series he sees Julia with his eye that sees his present.
Julia is cast in a white glow.
She tells him "It's all a dream."
He agrees with her.
He is engulfed in a blinding white light.
The entire syndicate is cast in a white light
this song is so goooooood!!!
rewatching cowboy bebop now!!!
Just finished watching the final episode... was speechless for a few minutes and then it hit me... Bang!
このハスキーボイスが最高なんです
カウボーイビバップの世界観に
しっかりマッチしているし
最終回を観た後に、劇場版を観た後に
じっくりこの曲を聴いてみてください
しみじみと、静かに涙が溢れてきます
本当に最高にクールでかっこいい
素晴らしいアニメでした
アニメ史に残る本物の名作です…
From Russia with Love!!!))
Claro, basicamente es eso...
The most precious song of my life.
当時、初めて聴いた時に、一発で惚れた曲です❗
ぐぉぉ、しっぶぅぅ😭
浪人して疲れ切った身体に染みてたの思い出した。
I remember watchjng cowboy bebop back in the day. As i grew older it only became cooler. One of the few true anime that aims to an older audience
Take me to 2001, adult swim was my life as a child...
who could have imagined back then that it would STILL be going strong in 2019. Blows my mind
My favorite anime still to this day 🥃
Same here
途中に出てくるアインとエドが癒し。
This is the first video I've seen on TH-cam since watching Bebop on Adult Swim that has the Japanese words spelled out in English. Thank you for doing this.
Never knew the lyrics until now. Makes it even better than I could have imagined.
心に滲みる…ヤニの匂いと共に
Happy Birthday, Steven Blum!
This is why we used to stay up late as a kid . Miss those days.
brings a tear to my eyes every time
Whenever i listen this song i start crying. This song remind me something i had lost...
色々とやってらんなくなった時に聴いてる。なんか自棄になれて好き
1:52 One of the central messages in this anime, also the point that was made in the story with the tiger striped cat
Excellent song, great to hear the full version. I love Cowboy Bebop.
That opening sequence is a wave of nostalgia.
I must have been 8 or 9 when I discovered this show and I've loved it ever since. The music has never left me either! Such a beautiful piece of art.
マジでビバップの歌だな…こりゃ。姉御凄いわ…
このパワーを酒場で歌われてヤジを飛ばす客も現れないだろうぜ…酒を飲む手も止まるかもな。
This song should be known worldwide, such an amazing music.
One of my favorite songs of all time! 💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾🔥🔥👍🏾👏🏾
locomotion...el primer anime que vi con un final que no me dejo dormir y me dio una perspectiva diferente a la vida
Fue un verdadero antes y después, luego de cowboy bebop no hubo nada igual ni tampoco nada mejor como ese canal que milagrosamente existió en el tiempo correcto,see you space cowboy
This song is haunting
I remember the opening to Cowboy Bebop because, when I was a kid whenever it came on I knew it was bedtime. So I never actually sat down and went through an entire episode of the show before today. I decided a long time ago I wouldn't watch CB due to being majorly spoiled a few years ago. Today I decided I would watch the first two episodes and I got to the end of episode 1 and heard this and it was instant nostalgia, except I never heard this before.
It has this haunting sound that reminds me of those nights where I did stay up to watch other shows like Inuyasha and Yu Yu Hakusho on Adult Swim. I love this.
This song is so good. I just can't believe it.
I've never seen cowboy bebop and still have enjoyed this song for 15 years.
This is the first time that I've read the translation.
Yoko Kanno is a fucking genius
it gets better once you watch it
Just think of Cowboy Bebop as an extended Yoko Kanno music video.
It's not, but close enough
This is one.of those songs.that I put headphones in and I just play it and release myself to the song
You know what I'm sayin
This song and this series will always hold a special place in my heart.
........Bang
格好良くて泣ける名曲
地上波の音楽番組も、どうでも良い自称アーティスト呼ばずに、本物のアーティストよんで欲しい。
i've been listening to this all the time for 3 years, but today, these lyrics talk to me like it never did
How long do i have to live until I’m healed…
God. Damn. It.
It’s a big part of the story a lot of people don’t pick up on. How each character is trying to work through the trauma they have experienced long before we ever met them
Is it weird that this song hit you right in the soul make you wanna shed a tear ......beautiful
This song got me after the ending of Cowboy bebop. I knew when the star light faded that it meant Spike died.
Jerome Bryant Jr. Honestly I’m glad he died, I’m not saying that I hate Spike. I just think that this shows not all animes have to have like 20 seasons to have a good ending.
Are you sure it was his death and not the death of vicious? Watanabe never confirmed spikes death
Vicious said he was the only one who could kill Spike. So I mean yeah. Besides Vicious wouldn't have light in him.
@@jeromebryantjr.3602 The ending is however you interpret it. It can be pretty much anything within reason
Jerome Bryant Jr. watanabe said in an interview once that spike's future was for us to tell we could think whatever we wanted to that's why "you will carry that weight"
cowboy bebop just leaves this big feeling of emptiness behind which strangely also feels very heavy. i think it's very rare for other series to make one feel things which this show does
This song is so good that i can see myself jamming to it a hundred years from now
1:45
My favorite anime and the best show I ever experienced in a personal way the music inspire so much so I become a musician Cowboy Bebop will be in my heart forever
Brings back a lot of memories
毎回OP･EDは見てたなぁ…。あとビバップはサブタイがオシャレ。特に最後の2話がEDの曲名(カタカナ)ってのは粋でした。
｢Session#11 闇夜のヘヴィ･ロック｣が抜けてた…。すいません何でもないです。
Samurai champloo and cowboy bebop, or should I say Japanese music in general , their meaning is really deep . I mean this is pure poetry.
Yes, japanese musics are very strong in therm of message between the lyrics
Samurai champloo,cowboy bebop,megalo box,gangsta its younkou
To be fair a lot of music is deep, the Japanese don't hold the rights to creative writing. Just look around deeper than the radio and there's plenty to find.
Poetry in motion !
You might be a Shinichiro Watanabe fan in general then.
Samurai Champloo and Cowboy Bebop are both made by him
Cowboy Bebop is one of the only shows that I can truly consider "an experience." And not in the overused way most people use that word.
Those title sessions tho... 🔥🔥🔥
This song is absolute legend.
Hands down, the best anime created.
My best friend just died. I'm going to play this song all day to remember him by.
That really sucks, message me if you need to talk.
@@joshuavance1472 Joshua, Thank you for your compassion. His name was Robert and he had been battling health problems for quite some time. He lost his legs due to diabetes six years ago but he never lost his spirit.I intend to celebrate that while I mourn his passing. Again....Thank you.
@@Ivorydour sending you a hug 💜
@@yashika7752 Thank you so much, I really miss him. Sending you a hug as well :-)
@@Ivorydour you'll be fine my dear🦋✨.
Fuck me, what a fantastic bass line.
Best anime ever music, actors, humour and sadness.. 👌
I like how this song can utterly gut you or just be bittersweet depending on the episode
I fall asleep to this! That's how deep that wound runs! Good night cowboy.
I learned the rules of blues harmony for this show.
2024 anybody?
Ya
Yes, my friend
Always! 😂😂😂
When I was a kid I thought this and Samurai Champloo were crazy boring, I know, I had shit taste but now as an adult I'm able to appreciate their value.
The weight of life and experience will bring you back home.
Go back and watch Scryed too they were out around the same time on adult swim and trigun! Will change your life guarantee it
@@Cuppamilky I actually did watch and enjoy those so i guess my taste wasn't totally shit though i don't really remember the end to Trigun so i guess I'll rewatch that
jazz3911 definitely a top tier anime from start to finish .
they were kinda boring tho lol just had to grow on you
瑕疵
愛してたと嘆くには
あまりにも時は過ぎてしまった
まだ心のほころびを
癒せぬまま 風が吹いてる
ひとつの目で明日を見て
ひとつの目で昨日を見つめてる
君の愛の揺り籠で
もう一度 安らかに眠れたら
乾いた瞳で誰か泣いてくれ
THE REAL FORK BLUES
本当の悲しみが知りたいだけ
泥の河に浸かった人生も悪くはない
一度きりで 終わるなら
希望に満ちた絶望と
罠が仕掛けられてるこのチャンス
何が良くて悪いのか
コインの表と裏みたいだ
どれだけ生きれば 癒されるのだろう
THE REAL FORK BLUES
本当の歓びが知りたいだけ
光るものの全てが黄金とは限らない
THE REAL FORK BLUES
本当の悲しみが知りたいだけ
泥の河に浸かった人生も悪くはない
一度きりで 終わるなら
Nantoka Kantoka if japanesse language is no.but if chinese language is yes.
まだ、覚めない夢をみてる…じゃなきゃ、信用も機会もない明日を迎えるなんて出来ない
生きている事を確かめてやる
One of the best end songs I've heard so far. Right up there with Fairy Dreaming on Genocyber
This hits the soul, like really deep into the soul.
*Sey You Space Cowboy*
