Poll: Cowboy Bebop vs Samurai Champloo

[Lionsfan]

Never seen Samurai Champloo so this is pretty one sided for me. I loved Cowboy Bebop so it gets my vote. The characters were cool, but the whole western noir thing made it amazing

champloo. neither would get my vote for "best animu evar" (that title goes to "Monster" and/or "The 12 Kingdoms") but champloo made me have tears in my eyes in the end. i cried like a ***** when Fuu found her dad. the 'filler' eps made sense once you watched the whole thing. most emotional episode: jin and the prostitute. bebop was a fun show, but it never touched my heart like champloo did.

I really enjoyed both of the series, but Cowboy Behop pulls out ahead ever so slightly for me. It simply does everything just a little better, especially in the side character department. For instance, the trio of old men have way more character and become more memorable than any of the supporting cast in Samurai Champloo.

Definitely Bebop, an absolute classic, although (like many, many people in this thread) I liked Champloo too.
Wtf is with the people that say they only saw one of the two series..? Why are they posting in a thread which has a requirement of having watched both? Man, some people...

Also in regards to the whole thing about Spike dying so easily at the end, IMO I think he DID die, and it's because he no longer had any more connections to his past. The love of his life died and he got revenge on the one who did it. Sure, there's still Faye and Jet, but it seemed like they meant almost nothing compared to Julia.
