All good things must end. Real Folk Blues (Part 1) and Real Folk Blues (Part 2) represent the end of Cowboy Bebop, and to quote Sam “it never gets any easier”. Spike finally reunites with Julia, however this moment is bittersweet, as it puts Spike on a collision course with Viscous, one where only one man will escape with his life.

This all leads to one of the most famous endings in anime history, one that still sparks debate to this very day.
