It's not like the anime and some of the characters look a little different but the atmosphere and feel of the story are all there.

I really enjoyed this. The action was faster and the characters close enough to the anime that I knew them already even if the story line was altered.

Note: See Cowboy Bebop (3 volumes) or the Cowboy Bebop anime for more.

This series has 2 volumes. ( )

I bought this one when I saw it sitting on the shelve at the New Bern Books-A-Million (I can remember that because it was the same time I first watched the anime, and the original receipt is working as my bookmark). At the time, I didn't know it was a reimagining of the story, so reading it the first time was a bit confusing.

An interesting concept, a manga that takes the basic information of the Cowboy Bebop anime, but tells its own original story. The characters are the same, but the way they came to work aboard the Bebop together is completely different. This is the first of two volumes, and I haven't ever seen the second anywhere. The five stories in this one put the famous Bebop crew together and put them at odds with the biggest crime syndicate in the system. ( )

This was a bit confusing. The editors assume anybody reading this has watching the show/read the other manga/etc., etc., so even though it's a No. 1 and a relaunch of the origin story, I was a bit lost among all the inside jokes. ( )
