Finally finished Cowboy Bebop - hmm, I didn't find it that great...

The last few episodes (about episode 20 onwards) were good IMO, but the ones before...  well, Cowboy Bebop has a very western action feel to it - one of the reasons why I watch anime is to not get that (cause I've seen way too many western action movies before).

Also, the story structure is very "monotonic".  Typically, in each episode, there'd be a few different events which merge together near the climax...


Anyways, started watching Fruits Basket - seems interesting.  The "childish morals" parts are annoying though ("You should see the beauty in each person" etc etc)>
