Cowboy Bebop Creator Could Only Stomach One Scene of Netflix Adaptation

I actually really liked the live version. If you are going to do something like this, I think changes are OK otherwise you’re just making the same thing over and over again and that is so boring

That's hilarious

he should watch the john wick series

Not everything needs a live adaption

He's a cultural appropriator.

Thank you, the one piece live action sucks so bad.

Love it.

Cowboy Bebop can be adapted to live action, but it's gotta be competent people.

YOU'RE GONNA CARRY THAT WEIGHT.

I'm so glad Oda was very involved in the One Piece live adaptation. It should've been a lesson that sticking to the source material is better because that's what the fans wanted to see. Almost forgot that this have a live adaptation too. 😢

Episode 6 season 1 ... another garbage gender grooming series... YOU NETFLIX had to ruined a perfectly good concept for a series with your nonsense ideology... WHATS YOUR PROBLEM?! can you not do anything normal anymore, at least for 1 god seeking program at least 1!!!!! I am so over all this now ... Disney was boy cut .... you should be next 😡🤬 I am open a petición on all social medias

I didnt even give it chance i just knew it would be bad.

What's the track name

“Thank you for reminding me how good my work is” lol

I think the live action Cowboy Bebop was pretty good. Wasn’t perfect, but I really enjoyed watching it. Probably would have been a lot stronger if they hadn’t focused as much on the Vicious/Julia stuff. Of course, Watanabe has every right to feel how he wants to about the whole thing, but as for myself, I enjoyed it for what it is.

The Netflix version seriously wasn’t that bad lol yes it feels more like a sitcom about the crew in universe but it really isn’t a bad live action anime… unlike dragon ball evolution.

I did the same. All I had to do was just see, watch not even a minute. Within that time I saw how bad this aberration to the one and only, was. I did have desire to even watch and hope. That there might even be an, ?!OK!? scene. I knew there would not.

It should’ve been obvious when they made Jet black

bro looks like ODA

The live action was, suprisingly, very close to the anime. As close to a cartoon as live action can be. "This is not Cowboy Bepop."? No duh, it is not doodles on paper, it is real people with 3D scenes. The kind of people who use the phrase, "these kind of people..." are not the people I would want to work with, either. I dare any of you to do better. Take it for what it is. He made a cartoon so good that it received the highest form of flattery, imitation. Some people prefer only to see and acknowledge negatives, as is apparent by the ending quote of his "positive note". Smh. "Whatever i want" "value of original higher." Dood's living in the past without any more vision or humility. Glad he was kept out of the live action adaptation, that's what had to of made it so good.

The cartoon sucked this live action was awesome i really don't know what's up everyone's ass

Always get it in your contract that you get creative control and final say. That way it ensures it’s something that you want to see and adheres to your original vision.

Should have demanded keeping creative control like the creator of One Piece!

It was never going to live up to the masterpiece that’s the anime, that’s impossible. But it wasn’t horrible. I enjoyed it and wish they didn’t cancel it

I’m glad this adaptation happened. if it didn’t, probably would have never watched the original

I liked the Netflix show having watched it right after watching the original series. I don't get the big deal I thought the important part of the was the family like relationships between the main characters. I think anime fans take this shit way to serious and a shot for shot remake wouldn't work because a lot of the appeal of anime is how it looks like real life just animated. What's the hook in a live action adaptation? Since the only people that give a shit about live action anime adaptations are anime fans anyway and all they're ever gonna do is complain, why keep making them. I've heard everything from the chick wasn't naked enough, to the guys beard wasn't right. Somebody probably complained that spikes voice wasn't the same.

Same, Shinichiro, same.

I thought it was really cool, The only people that would say it sucked are neckbeard incels who hate everything. I guess i'm just too busy with friends and work to sit around and cry about a netflix show.

netflix and raping the original material strike again

It's almost like not letting on the original creator be an active participant in the work you're trying to emulate and that people want to see is a bad idea.

Who coulda fuckin' seen that coming

Now those simps can stfu about it. It was TERRIBLE.

Pisses me off even more cause it’s literally my all time favorite anime and they massacred it

It just really sucks cause there was potential and they just dropped the ball. It’s worse than had it been it’s entirety awful. To see it have hints of something great and not following through was a such a let down.

Wait theyre making a live action? LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Netflix live action sucks!. What's so hard of following the anime. It's all there. You don't need to put your own spin.

atleast one piece was decent tho

Naw they took Jet Black too seriously 💀

Even the creator of cowboy bebop was very displeased with the Netflix adaptation how much more if Cleopatra learned that she turned black in the future.

I will say if the creator says he was strong armed with creative freedom towards the project then he has every right to trash Netflix because i will always support the original creators vision.

But, on a personal perspective level and as the audience i didnt think the show was bad and was looking forward to a second season.

Still if this were me, as the creator, as stated earlier i would always support the creators vision.

This is why im opting to author and publish my own stories as a book or comic FIRST and then adapting it to the big screen or onto a tv series and if my ideas get changed i can always fall back to my original works and let my fans know that what was created and changed was certainly not my vision and will not be included as canon.

if I were him I'd sue or something

Netflix had one job they just had To cancel it, this is the reason why they are slowly going bankrupt, just like disney

While I was watching the live action show I remember thinking, "Why does this feel more cartoonish than the original animated show?"

I knew it would be awful so I didn’t even bother with it

the actors actually did a great job in the live action adaptation of cowboy beebop. is just too bad that they had netflix staff, filming, effects, and writing to work with.

He’s not wrong. On many levels

Japanese studios aren't much better to be fair, Anime is just next to impossible to translate to live action, and companies are only doing it out of greed, not respect for the source material

Still the best live action anime adaption. Cowboy bebop is my favorite show of all time. So yes i disliked this adaption. But it is better than all other live action adaptions. Why can't we just recreate every scene from the original as well. Use the proper outfits. It could be done right but no one wants to do that

Vinland saga could easily be adapted since there are multiple Viking shows out there

Same

I couldn’t even get through the first episode. It was awful.
