Vicious doesn't make it to this list as his enlistment would have the poll quite predictable. BANG!
Like Vicious should get his own spinoff during his time as the RDS member before he usurped the position.
Even the cast should get more in depth in novels, manga, etc.
Heck we would love to see Spike again but with Julia and Vicious during the Titan War in an OVA format.
Shipping within the continental US, $5 media mail for up to 2 records. Additional records, $1 extra for each one. Prefer to ship within the continental US, but I can work out international shipping, though it will most likely be costly. Everything will be shipped using media mail and if you want insurance, we'll have to work something out. It may increase a bump in shipping tier and costs (depending on what USPS allows). Payment through PayPal only.
Grading listed jacket/media. For sealed records, media is presumed NM or better.
Pictures can be provided upon request.

Which purple-haired beaut will win?
I've been compiling a playlist on Spotify for the complete Cowboy Bebop Soundtrack and came across this Tumblr post with a complete list.
All three are Sunrise greats and even such endings give such conclusion to the point that the character's fate remains ambiguous allowing the fans to debate continuously for years.
What are your personal rankings?
Who had the best to the worst supposed death?
Anybody know where I can find this clip?
The dude just oozes cool. Karate master bounty hunter in space whoโs handsome? The hell is up with that lol.
As I continue to delve into Spirit of the Century, I thought I might take a hand at remaking an iconic character in this system, just to see what it looks like. I settled on Spike because of he encompasses a pulp fiction character even though he's in a scifi world. His capabilities still fit Spirit of the Century better than Diaspora, perhaps because of the feel of the world he lives in, which is similar in some ways to the 1920's.
Spike Spiegel (remade for Spirit of the Century)
Aspects - I decided to include a short description of why I chose the aspect as well. If you're not familiar with the system then just know that an aspect is a short phrase that somehow encapsulates a defining characteristic of the character. It can be used to give the character a bonus or compel the character into an action by the GM by using the fate point system.
- Yakuza Betrayed!
-Spike was a member of the Yakuza, now they want to kill him
- We would have been great together.
-Whenever Julia is part of a scene this can be tagged for a bonus
- One eye in the past
-Tag for events/people (good and bad) from Spike's past, tag for artificial eye bonus
- Right place at the wrong time
-tag to be in the right place to get a clue, compel to fall into an ambush, narrowly miss the person you're hunting for, etc
- Vicious was my friend
-roll to try to guess Vicious's plans, tag in fights with Vicious
- Yeah Yeah Whatever
-cut somebody's explanation on something short for a bonus on the next roll (within reason)
- Old friends and old favors
-need a ship fixed? need a loan? need some clues?
- Swimming Bird
-tag to get a bonus when attempting skills that he's not good at/built for, various other uses, purposely vague! Can cause him trouble!
- Fine! I'll take them all on by myself!
-for when Spike fights a whole group, tag for a bonus, compel to fight alone
- If I have a friend left, it's Jet.
-tag to try to get Jet to help you out of a bind, or show up just in time, or compel to help Jet
Stunts- Stunts represent special abilities and signature equipment. They generally are always beneficial to the character.

Jeet Kune Do - (fight with martial arts)
-
You Gotta Be Like Water (superior defense)
-
Swordfish II (signature ship)
-
Gun Fu (can shoot and defend with guns)
-
Stashed Arsenal (somehow, has the guns and explosives for the big fights)
Jet's charisma, skill in combat, and physical appearance bear resemblance to Spike Spiegal, the primary protagonist of Cowboy Bebop. Jet's hairstyle particularly reckons to Spike, and he shares the name of Spike's partner, Bebop's secondary protagonist. Additionally, both Jet and Spike have difficulty forgetting the past.
Jet also seems to share some of his appearance and mannerisms with Samurai Champloo character Mugen, especially in his habit of chewing a blade of wheat grass, and Jet's fight with Aang in Book One mirrors the strongly detailed fight choreography of the Champloo series.

Welcome to another edition of Stand Saturday! For those of you unfamiliar with Stand Saturday, it's a weekly game where we each create our own Stands. A Stand is essentially the personification of one's willpower which is the power that replaced the Ripple (Hamon) starting in Part 3 of JoJo. Each Stand's ability is completely different (to an extent) from everyone else's, and really depends on your creativity on how to use it. In addition to Stand abilities, each stand has its own stats which represents its effectiveness; these are: Power, Speed, Range, Durability, Precision, and Development Potential.
Like last week the prompt is asking you to make a stand for an existing character from another series, this time being Cowboy Bebop as it was highly requested previously. Try not to give characters stand abilities for abilities they already have.
Additionally, for those interested, I have the general schedule for the rest of the yearโs themes for stand Saturday.
August- game series
September- myths, legends, and stories
October- specific anime characters
November- specific game characters
December- historical figures
The next two months will be pretty much the same as these last two ones we did, but be for game series. The rest will ask you to make stands for specific characters/people. For the ones that are for specific characters/people I intend to say who the next weeks character will be the week before so you have a bit more time to think about it (unless of course everyone wants to be surprised).
This isnโt set in stone or anything so we may go back to the super general themes if no one likes this new approach. Put your opinions about this along with your post this week.
- Spike:
Ideally, I would take Heath Ledger. Although I mentioned that physicality has no bearing here, he does have the tall lanky build with wide shoulders, big curly hair, deep pronounced voice, and we know he can definitely get into the mind of his characters. (His character in 10 things I hate about you was also a pretty "cool" character derivation from Spike).
However, since he is deceased my pick would be Ryan Gosling. His character in Drive has that "removed" vibe that Spike has throughout the series while still being very piercing with his impactful moments. Not only that, he definitely has the "cool" vibe going with him as well, and is undoubtedly a draw at the box office, (also can really capture the young woman demographic.) While I don't think Spike has ever been personified perfectly by any of Ryan Gosling's roles, he is definitely close enough to what I feel Spike could be for a live action movie, and with some subtle tweaking (namely during more light hearted scenes or his general "disinterested-ness") Ryan Gosling could be a very solid choice for Spike.
=============================
- Jet Black
This one was pretty tough, but I would choose Laurence Fishburne. From his imdb description alone he is known authoritarian roles, and while Jet is a very badass character, I definitely see him as a more of a caring father figure ultimately for the rest of the Bebop crew. I definitely feel Laurence can capture this strong, powerful character with a somewhat broken past, however has still chosen a life of good. Not only that, his voice can match Jet's as well (I always thought Jet had very Black American sensibilities about him, while not being too stereotypical of black men in film/animation.) If not Laurence, I would probably choose Jeff Bridges, actually (I feel it's a pretty close contest between the two).
=============================
- Faye Valentine
DKR SPOILERS
Ideally, I would choose Anne Hathaway. Her role in the Dark Knight Rises is pretty much exactly how I imagine Faye would operate in a live action characterization of her. Whilst being this sultry, deceptive woman, she is also brazenly confident (still not without her soft spots however). These are both seen in Anne Hathaway's portrayal of Catwoman in DKR and i
