    For serious realsies, who could you see cast for this, would you prefer ein erased or some sort of hyper cgi'd detective pikachu in corgi form. How would you go about capturing the more light-hearded episodes, or the stand alone adventure ones that felt more dreamlike.

    Yeah, I worry Faye is just going to get politically corrected and modernized into virtual unrecognition.

    She starts off as a shitty human being precisely because shitty things were done to her. Wake up an amnesiac after racking up a bill to heal from some terminal illness/accident they put you in stasis for? Check. Have the people you thought were taking care of you foist their own debts onto you after growing close to one and faking his death? Check. Avoiding debt collectors, the law, and probably bounty hunters because there's fuck all you can do? Check. Taking advantage of your sex appeal because that's pretty much the only thing you've got? Check. Sure, there are some blanks to fill in like how she got her ship, got good at cards/gambling, and being an escape artist, but they're not really unreasonable milestones given the universe.

    My main worry is some will think she's too "damsel in distress" at the start, so her amnesiac backstory winds up scrapped and she somehow just becomes some random badass chick. And while I wouldn't expect her outfit to reasonably translate 1:1 to reality or even look good, I mentioned sex appeal because that's still part of who she was. Casting an uggo while showing no skin or wearing bulky clothes just won't work. Hot as I think Kate is, she's too old for the role. Keep Fox a few galaxies away from the possibility, too. Ruling out stasis shenanigans, I'd pretty much put Faye in her late-20's up to mid-30's. She's gotta be a woman, not a teenager or college kid. Doesn't even have to be a widely known actor for me, either. She's just gotta check some of those earlier boxes while knowing how to act.

    But like others, I don't have high expectations. I don't need them to recreate the anime in live action form, either. An alternate universe otherwise sticking to core facets like I outlined of Faye, Spike being a war vet and ex-mobster, Jet a "retired" cop, and so on. I can live without Ein, but also wouldn't be against him just being a pet they eventually acquire. Some high science, dabblings in mysticism, and worlds generally have their own cultures are pretty much required, too. Julia could have a greater role in things. VT could be more or a recurring character. Let Steve Blum, Beau Billingslea, Mary McGlynn, and Wendee Lee replace the old man trio for silly cameos and an homage.

    Faye was supposedly supposed to be somewhere between 20-23 btw. She had the accident that put her into cryo when she was 20 and was in stasis for 54 years. The wiki's all say she was 'perceived' to be 23 but was actually 77 years old which i'll assume means that's her age by the end of the series. Ain't no japs letting some christmas cake exude sexuality cmon bruh.

    Like you though I think they will absolutely destroy any nuance to her character as I always found her to be more multi faceted than anyone else in the main cast. Spike/jet are both simple af and should be the easiest characters to fill.

    I don't want to imagine them remaking Jupiter Jazz and how much they would bastardize everything about that let alone Gren.

    I don't know when these companies will realize that if anime fans want to watch Cowboy Bebop, we'll just go rewatch the anime for the 7th time.

    The live action Initial D movie was pretty lit. They took some liberties on some characters' personalities but it was a really good anime adaption. Whether Netflix can not fuck this one up is a different matter.

    Give me that space lobster episode as a comedy movie and I'm set. They can do the serious material in the sequel.
