Cowboy Bebop - Best Sessions description Director Shinichiro Watanabe chose the three episodes from this popular sci-fi action series he felt contained the best overall sound quality and remixed them for Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS audio. The second trio of episodes was voted on by Japanese audiences. Watanabe makes skillful use of the new technology. The sound effects are highly directional, as is much of the dialogue: when Jet and Spike yell to each other at the beginning of "Asteroid Blues," their voices seem to come from different parts of the ship. However, the only thing new about this set is the remixed soundtrack; neither the visuals nor the story lines have been changed. Viewers who already have the complete series don't need to run out and buy the reworked episodes--unless they have a jazzy new sound system they want to show off. (Rated 13 and older: violence, nudity, profanity, alcohol and tobacco use, occasional ethnic stereotypes) --Charles Solomon |

| If you didn't/ couldn't/ can't watch all 26 episodes of Shinichiro Watanabe's amazing Cowboy Bebop on Cartoon Network, or afford the complete, out-of-print "perfect" set, here's the next best thing. It's six hand-picked episodes with Dolby sound for less than the DVD of the Cowboy Bebop movie.
The Best Sessions may not be the best, but they are the best introduction to the epic anime series for those who don't like anime, and whatever one thinks of the film, most of the elements that make the show so dazzling are missing from it. The Best Sessions is a bargain priced introduction to an incredible animation triumph, from the opening titles montage blending Jonny Quest and Peter Gunn to the enchanting closing with "The Real Folk Blues". Not to mention the strong story lines, careful, yet jaunty animation style, witty manga dialogues, and the most realized characters in Anime. The effect is as if a graphic novel had come to life, not taken itself too seriously (the bane of most GNs), and brought a first-person perspective to an entirely alien world. Mostly it's the experience of bounty hunter- drifter Spike, sometimes his (space)shipmate Jet, later acquaintance Valentine or computer wiz-kid Edward. Regardless, the effect is dazzling. Cartoon Network again scored with this one. Hard to believe it's from 1998. But for twenty bones, here's your chance to catch the buzz with the Best Sessions. |
