These past few days I had Sokka's singing in my head "Badgermole, badgermole coming towards me, c'mon guys, help me out!". So I had to draw a bagdermole. The first earthbender with the best earthbender is yet ANOTHER Avatar the Last Airbender fanart. Let me know when you guys get tired of these *laughs*

SoI decided to try watching something that is new to me, but rather old to everybody else. I have never seen Comboy Bebop. And I noticed all the dub was available on Youtube. So I started watching it while drawing today.
First off, the dub is amazing. It's rare that I watch dubbed anime and that one of the voices doesn't make me want to switch languages. But Comboy Bebop has a good, fun and humorous dub. And it's an older series too. Bravo.
Second, HOLY CRAP. The animation is allright, but the mood, style and music is mind-blowing. This series kinda feels like Trigun and Escaflowne where a few things that really don't make sense with basic physics happen (comets making people immortal? Explosions in space? Helium voice planet?) but you just don't care. Because the nonsense fits with the universe of the series. "Yeah, it doesn't make sense, but holy crap lookattiiiitttttt!!!!"
So far i've watched 8 episodes while coloring. Thanks to my new dual screens, this is awesome. I have to admit I really enjoyed the episode with the space truckers. And how the inside of their space trucks are decorated and cozy in a multitude of styles. Love it.
No wonder it's an anime classic.

She also did Escaflowne's music. I ADORE the Escaflowne soundtrack.

We're up to around episode 20 I think? But isn't it awesome and I loved the space trucker episode too. (Just what till you get to one of the crack episodes, it's called Toys in the Attic. XD)

When you have time (no rush on this one) you should also check out Samurai Champloo.. not as good, but very fun with the anachronisms and whatnot.

*clutches Ein plushy* I haven't seen Cowboy Bebop in years! I need to look up the refrigerator episode when I'm done with school today. (I still get a kick out of how they modeled Jet after Spike - a fact I didn't realize until it was directly pointed out to me, embarrassingly enough)
no subject
Date: 2010-09-03 03:03 am (UTC)I heard about the refrigerator episode. And the mushroom samba. I await for these episodes. So far i'm only halfway thru the eight.

Date: 2010-09-02 10:15 pm (UTC)I discovered Bebob when it premiered on Adult Swim back in (I believe) the late 1990s. I think it had a big part in ending my hardcore sub-snob phase.
Fun Fact: When I saw Crispin Freeman at a convention, he told the audience about the day Yoko Kanno came to visit the dub studio while they were recording Bebop (Freeman played some bit parts in the show). He asked her what she thought and she told him (in English), "Our Spike good. But your Spike SEXY!". And if Yoko Kanno says so, it must be true. ~_^
