Cowboy Bebop is quickly reaching the end, but we’ve got to through Brain Scratch and Hard Luck Woman to get there. Brain Scratch sees Spike go head-to-head against a Heaven’s Gate-esq cult that has somehow seduced Faye into joining. But he quickly learns that this techno-cult may not be all that they seem.

After that, Hard Luck Woman sees Faye recall more of her past, leading to one of Cowboy Bebop’s most emotional moments as Ed and Faye leave the Bebop, seemingly forever (though for one of them that forever won’t last long)

From the block's early days with shows like Space Ghost: Coast to Coast and Transformers: Beast Wars to the imported anime that made Toonami and Adult Swim appointment television for a generation of kids, such as Cowboy Bebop, Sailor Moon, and Dragon Ball.
