After teasing lovers with a exercise of the unique anime’s iconic intro and a special “Lost Session” video, Netflix has in the end dropped a right trailer for its upcoming Cowboy Bebop model, giving us our first actual have a take a observe the display’s tone and fashion.
Unlike the aforementioned Lost Session video, which featured aggressive (however additionally fairly dynamic) split-display screen modifying and Scott Pilgrim-fashion digital digicam angles, the brand new trailer tones matters down dramatically to offer a greater normal-searching series.
That said, the display nonetheless appears masses stylish, and there is as a minimum a few split-display screen present, along side a pleasant experience of scope way to a few large-scale area battles and active combat scenes – the trailer even teases a long-take movement collection that may grow to be being one of the display’s standout moments.
As for whether or not the brand new stay movement Cowboy Bebop has what it takes to end up one in all our fine Netflix shows, we will should wait and see. For now, you may test out the primary complete trailer for Netflix’s Cowboy Bebop below.
Our take: Netflix has performed the anime justice
Based at the trailer above, we will say that any doubts we might’ve had approximately Netflix’s stay-movement model of Cowboy Bebop were squarely positioned to rest.
The display appears to nail the anime’s blend of light-hearted movement and noirish drama, and the interaction among Spike (John Cho), Jet (Mustafa Shakir) and Faye (Daniella Pineda) appears pretty entertaining.
It’s additionally clean that the display’s creators are going to paste carefully to the anime’s traditional storylines – to factor out simply examples, we see Spike interacting with Katerina Solensan, one 1/2 of of a drug-smuggling couple from the anime’s first episode, and we additionally see him preventing it out with serial dog-thief Abdul Hakim.
The teaser additionally suggestions at an inevitable war of words among Spike and his arch nemesis, Vicious, that is tantalising to mention the least.
If there is one detail of the trailer which appears a bit off, it is the connection among Spike and Faye. While the pair truly irritated every different withinside the anime, they seem greater adverse closer to every different here – the trailer functions now no longer one however jokes approximately Spike trying to kill Faye, which appears a chunk intense to us.
Still, we are handiest seeing a part of the picture. We’ll should watch for the display to land on Netflix on November nine to look the way it all performs out. Until then, see you area cowboy…
