s01e05 — Ballad of Fallen Angels

So the angry and gloomy Bebop began.

It's quite good.

It's not really clear what kind of visions they were from the past, but damn it! how atmospheric it is, huh!)

The whole falling scene is perfectly staged, and what kind of music)

The revelation of GG's past came so suddenly, without eyeliner.

Wow. Up until this episode, I thought it was a bit of a frivolous anime with a very high-quality sound and no less high-quality rendering of details. But this episode is suddenly emotional, beautiful, and catchy. It is interesting that how the past of the years will be revealed further.

Cool stuff) Usually TV shows stretch, but here, as luck would have it, when everything is cool, everything moves very fast) I would like to mix up a whole season with each episode))
The last time such a wish was in the books 1984 and 451 degrees Fahrenheit, where I would like to have a book from each chapter))
The series is very cool, from and to) Just a bunch of all the best)

Suddenly, anime has become much deeper and more interesting. As mentioned above, the scene with the fall is insanely atmospheric and catches the thinnest strings of the soul. It was like being hit on the head with a butt and I regained my sight.

The falling scene is one of the best I've seen in an anime.

Bbbbbbbbbbbbe!!!! The ending is just ecstasy! Playing on expectations, humor, music, animation...
Now I know why this anime is called one of the legendary ones)))

Wow, how the plot spun!The falling scene was really very cinematic, and the music was perfect for this scene! The blond guy is still a sadistic killer..🙈

It's so cool that Spike didn't let the blonde and Vishous finish and just shot))
When I got tired of pretentious speeches

Wow!!!!! I remembered the movie "Raven" with Brandon Lee.

Музыка во время падения Gabriela Robin - Green Bird.

ohhh... Ohhh... It was so beautiful, you and I are of the same blood, it gives me goosebumps.

This is what I expect when I start watching old anime. I really like it 👍🏻

Just an aesthetic pleasure.

Some girl came to the opera and meets someone there. So what? An absolute lack of meaning.

I also came to admire the scene of the fall. I wasn't even surprised when I started typing "Spike falling" into the Google search bar, which immediately offered me "out of window" and this very scene with hundreds of thousands of views. ♥

Fall scene-top.

High-quality soundtracks, a lively shootout in a church, a flight out of the window under an epic explosion - what else do you need for a good episode?

Like the icing on the cake, the humor is at the end of the episode. But it turned out to be weak. I just grunted, nothing more.

Explanatory note for those who do not understand:
Spike and Vicious (the man with the raven) worked in the cartel for an uncle named Mao. Mao and his rival initially signed a truce. Immediately after signing, Vishous kills both a competitor and Mao in order to advance his career. But Mao hides the murder in order to blame the death of a competitor on him. And at the same time lure Spike out (?) on the supposedly living Mao. But Faye falls for the bait, as Spike learns from an old friend that Mao is dead (mb did not get in touch with her in time or something like that, since the witnesses of the death were removed). Well, Spike climbs into the trap, because he really wants to kill himself or kill himself in the process

Well, when falling out of the window, we are shown more pieces of the flashback from Spike's past (pay attention to the eye in which everything is reflected)

I wonder if the rule "if the death of the hero / villain is not shown, then he is still alive" will work here, or will it really be all 🤔

what a fucking ost this anime has, banger after banger💖
