When good things are peeled off layer by layer

Faye finally watched as tears wet his face. At the end, Spike felt the ground draw closer and closer, and finally plunged into darkness. The distant stars are slowly falling. Jet knows it too. Ed and Ein are wandering somewhere. On Mars, far away, a man dies. The beauty of "COWBOY BEBOP" is just a moment. At the beginning, the combination of four people and one dog seems to have a wonderful chemical reaction. Watching them hunt for the leader, when they compete for the bounty or food, the endless space outside the ship, and the passage of time. Endless time, there is really a feeling that time is passing very slowly. I wish they would live on the BEBOP forever and watch them travel the stars together. However, this is just the beginning. Once, I was particularly fond of a passage from Günter Grass: "Memories are like peeling an onion. Every time you peel off a layer, some will be exposed. Between layers of peeling, tears will wet the front of the shirt." COWBOY BEBOP". All this beauty is like an onion with a bright appearance, it seems to be so, at this moment, Jet's once appeared. He suffered betrayal and parting, and all that was left was that mechanical arm and a scar. His former lover shot him for his current relationship. Faye's tape appeared. Now the mature sister Yu looks at herself who used to be young but has no impression of her, does she exist? Or does it not exist? "This is... me?" I still remember when Faye woke up, she lost all proof of her existence, in her memory, there was no trace of the past, only Faye was her only one You know, Valentine is still the name that the so-called Doctor gave her because of the songs he liked. My eyes were also moist. It's just one layer. The most violent emotional torrent, for me, was when Faye ran down the street thinking that he had found a home, but it turned out that it was deserted, only the painted floor was the bed, and finally he had to return to the BEBOP. "There's nowhere to go...there's nowhere, I can only come back here...and where are you going? Why are you going? Abandoning your life on purpose?" How many times we've gone upstream only to end up upstream, and that's true for adults in BEBOP. Whether it is Jet, Faye, Spike. The past is a dream. Spike's dream was his everything, and Julia's death ripped everything apart, the dream shattered, and he chose to die when he woke up. Peeled hard, but the onion was heartless, with only white cavities. When good things are peeled back to reveal their true tragic nature, it seems that everything becomes unspeakable. All the good and the sad are blended at this time. Ed and Ein are the remaining beauty, she and it have not been torn apart severely, the innocence and friendship are all they have. But adults face endless loneliness and frustration. The tragedy of "COWBOY BEBOP" is eternal, Faye will no doubt set off alone again, the BEBOP is not the past, Jet may fry a special plate of meatless shredded green pepper on the BEBOP, and then no longer accept new crew. Mr. Lu Xun once said: "Tragedy destroys the valuable things in life for people to see." In my opinion, this is not the case. The real tragedy, just like "COWBOY BEBOP", is like peeling off the layers of an onion, and in the end it is She was speechless, her clothes wet with tears.

Cowboy Bebop quotes

  • bull: Do not fear death. Death is always at our side. When we show fear, it jumps at us faster than light, but if we do not show fear, it casts its eye upon us gently and then guides us into infinity...

  • Spike: [Julia is humming while reading the newspaper after taking care of Spike]

    [she doesn't know that he is conscious]

    Spike: Just like that... sing for me, please.
