I could write for 10,000 words on how this show is good, and how good this show is. But I don't need too, a hundred others already have here.
This is without a doubt, my #1 Anime, and should be in the top 10 shows for anyone, anime fan or otherwise. If you've never seen it, simply make it a priority to see it as soon as you can.
Everything involved in it is high quality, the animation is great, smooth and fits the modern look, while not over stylizing it to detract from its gritty, life like feel. Each character is well rounded, developed and explored by the end, even the dog Ein, gets her moments to shine, by the end you understand them like you would a friend, their ups and their downs, the pathos and hopes which drive them forward. But it does this not by the characters deliver lines about themselves, but through their actions and choices. The music is perhaps most well known, ranging from all genres, each episode has it's own musical feel that shifts dramatically in new episodes, to the point each episodes name reflects its musical choices during it.
It follows a very episodic formula, each episode has very little directly to do with those which came before or after, simply days in the Bebops crews lives, but their characters each arc and grow due to the events during each episode, Fays traitorous habits turning to loyalty, Spikes outward irreverence turning serious. Though there is an overarching 'plot' which acts as the start and end of the series, they fit well into the story, and don't heavily rely on even the other connecting plot episodes, though the emotional impact can be lost without following the characters through each episode, you can often get enough watching them at random to make them good.
