Netflix’s Live-Action Cowboy Bebop Turns Faye Valentine Bisexual
In one of the least inspired and predictable changes made by Netflix to the source material during its transition to live-action – of which there are many, nearly all received poorly by general audiences – the streaming giant’s adaptation of Cowboy Bebop has changed Faye Valentine’s sexuality from straight to bisexual.
Faye’s new sexuality is revealed in the widely-panned series’ sixth episode, ‘Binary Two-Step’, wherein the purple-haired bounty hunter meets the Netflix original character Mel (Jade Harlow), a mechanic hired by Jet to repair the Bebop.

Upon gathering for the first period, the two briefly exchange small-talk before Mel begins flirting with Faye, first taking note of the latter’s new ‘railgun’ and asserting, “Whenever I watch a good looking piece, I just have to touch it,” while twinkling music suddenly begins to play.
“Yeah,” replies a flustered Faye, before stammering support, “Touch away.”
Eventually, Mel informs Faye that she’s “just wait
10 Things That Didn't Age Well In Cowboy Bebop
It should come as no surprise that old television shows tend not to age well, especially when compared to current standards of television. This is no different for Cowboy Bebop which was released in 1998. Cowboy Bebop is not necessarily the worst example of this, though, just because it was occasionally offensive; they are hardly the only ones guilty of this after all.

10 Some Of The Logic In Cowboy Bebop
Starting off this list is a quality that most have referred to during a criticism. Whether it is the science of how Spike could move between space-ships sans spacesuit, or how the crew was qualified to survive on the few bounties that it did catch, Cowboy Bebop sure play around with their story logic. The strangest example had to be how the police were constantly slow on the uptake and uncomplicated to fo
Cowboy Bebop is a classic late ‘90s anime occupied of jazz references and space western shenanigans, as well as a cast of interesting characters. My favorite of these from the first episode she was introduced is Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV, better known as Radical Ed or just Ed. (Yes, she is a girl. We will get to that later). Before she is introduced to the rest of the Bebop crew, this expert hacker is described as several outrageous figures, including a Hindu guru, a gay drag queen, and an alien. However, I think that Ed being an autistic teen makes much more sense.
Ed’s laser is probably evident, and a bit stereotypical: hacking. She can hop over any firewall, end into any password-protected domain, and spends more day surfing the nets than doing anything else. To Ed, hacking is a fun, challenging, satisfying game that brings her pure joy, which we observe when she sings and laughs to herself as she peers through her goggles and into her world of code. Chess seems to bring a similar feeling, as Ed is able to come across Chessmaster Hex in his world by repeatedly playing against him. Hacking and chess both fall under puzzle-like interests, which a lot of autistic people ha
A big mystery arose when Netflix first announced its live-action version of the 1998 sci-fi noir anime series Cowboy Bebop. Queer fans of the anime immediately wondered whether the Netflix series would include Ed, a quirky and androgynous hacker who joins the series’ bounty-hunting team and is often mistaken for a boy.
Ed didn’t come in the Netflix show’s pre-release marketing, and though she stars in a majority of the anime’s episodes, she only pops up briefly at the end of the Netflix series. But people fixated on Ed overlooked another of the series’ ethics who is infinitely queerer — a queer military veteran turned musician named Gren.
In Netflix’s adaptation, Gren is a draggy master of ceremonies at a hot Martian jazz exclude that serves mafia capos. Unlike the cartoon—where Gren identifies as a dude and first presents largely as masculine, though with noticeable breasts later on—the new Gren has a much more ambiguous gender presentation. They are a rough-voiced, short-haired blond who first appears in fishnets, a padded skirt and a golden neckpiece.
