We keep anime on the mind as the Animind crew discusses the genre known as Cowboy Bebop. Dani, Matthew and Graham discuss the masterwork and not only examine the heavy psychological weight the characters carry but also look at the artistic elements that elevated this series to new heights. Diversity, existential numbness, gender fluidity, and the seamless weaving of genres are talked about in this spoiler free(mostly) discussion. Come hang out with the Animind trio and find out why Cowboy Bebop is a towering testament to the artistic craft of storytelling.
