“Toys in the Attic” also because that kind of accessed my science fiction fandom, the weirdness of it all and its comedy, and it’s the one thing that we’ve been able to perform live together because it was basically just the main cast. “Mushroom Samba” was just pure fun from beginning to end and just really weird. It was that one moment in that movie that did that for me. And accessing that through Spike’s pain actually helped me on a personal level and made everything else gel for me. I wasn’t that badass in real life, but I did have shields up to protect myself against getting hurt. And it affected me on a very profound level as an actor, as a person, and as a man being able to express vulnerability while playing this badass dude who really didn’t seem to care about anything. I almost wish I had that insight from the very beginning.īut it happened when it was supposed to happen. It made everything else gel and it made me have to go back and actually revisit what had been done before. What the genesis of that pain was, that underlying sadness, and that confusion that he seemed to walk through life with. But that was when I really zeroed in on exactly who he was. I knew there was something in there and it was alluded to throughout the series. And that felt like the missing element to Spike. There was a moment in the Cowboy Bebop movie, when Spike and Electra were in a jail cell and he had to actually access his pain and his vulnerability.

Steve Blum: Oddly enough, it took me going through the entire series and doing the movie before I really figured it out who Spike was as a character, personally and professionally. “Toys in the Attic,” “Mushroom Samba,” and Cowboy Bebop: The Movie With the original 26-episode anime being made available to stream on Funimation, Polygon spoke with the original voice cast of Cowboy Bebop to talk about their favorite episodes and moments from working on the series. For many fans, the English dub is the definitive version of the series with vocal performances of Steve Blum (Spike Spiegel), Beau Billingslea (Jet Black), Wendee Lee (Faye Valentine), and Melissa Fahn (Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV) being the final element that propelled the anime to the height of its popularity and critical reception.
That reputation is owed in no small part to the original English voice cast who dubbed the series back when it aired on the late-night animation block Adult Swim in 2001. When Cowboy Bebop first exploded onto television screens in a flurry of jazz horns and gunfire, it left a deep and lasting impression on a generation of anime fans, earning a reputation as not only one of the best anime of its era but an ideal entry point for newcomers to the medium.
