what do you mean, that's how it ends? I didn't tell you anything except that it was sad. It is sad. Don't jump to conclusions. And don't read any other comments.

The movie is set right around episode 22-23. The climactic end for the show sort of happens between episode 24-26. The movie is so good in that it actually captures where the characters are at that point in time, instead of making it just fit in anywhere in the sequence.

You should so watch the end, though. I didn't fall truly in love with this show until I saw the last two episodes. I liked it before, but wasn't crazy about it. Then I'm like "I get it! I get it! OMG I LOVE THIS SHOW! I SO KNEW THIS WAS COMING!"

The restraint that the writers show at the end is amazing, making it far more cinematic or novel-like than anime-like.

no... i'm not basing it on your comments. i saw it last night. i didn't realize it was the finale until... y'know... dead spike.

that's what i'm bummed about. but really, not bummed. cuz it was very, very cool. and even if i get bummed, i do really love unhappy endings. (duh, i watch jossverse shows!)

so... that really is the finale, huh? no more bebop after that? no miraculous return of spike? maybe... some kind of magical amulet? no?

::is secretly thankful. but still bummed::

::sighs::

ok. but i haven't seen the movie yet. so i can have that to look forward to.

Oh, well, that's a relief.

I understand perfectly. It's fantastic because it all makes sense (when I first saw it I was not suprised, really that he died, because his character was tragic and he did have a deathwish and you could wade in the foreshadowing even before what happened in this episode), and the cahracters are wonderful, but it's terrible because now he's gone! Spike is dead!

Except of course for his "miraculous return and subsequent even more downward spiral."

but i haven't seen the movie yet. so i can have that to look forward to. The movie is a bit too long in parts, and some of the philosophical talk bored me, but the fights are fantastic and the characterizations are amazing. Also there's two movie-centric characters that I loved... the villain who is supposed to parallel Spike, and a cop lady whose just fabulously cool. Like what would happen if you took Spike and Jet's personalities and combined them, and then made that person into a gorgeous kick-ass woman. She and Spike have this great hand-to-hand fight with fabulous snarky dialogue.

Would you like a copy of the CB soundtrack I'm making? It's going to have the a song for each character and location. I've already made the song list.
