Cowboy Bebop - Session 18 Speak Like a Child - Group Reaction

[@shockzz1234]

Damn man. I love you guys, but your abilities to nitpick over the smallest things is second to none, especially considering it made you miss the whooolllleee point of this episode. And you missed some stuff in episode 12 between Faye and Gren too, so you've missed out on that part of her character as well. And now because of that, you guys just don't care about/misunderstand Faye which is tragic because she's a fantastic character. Even some of the things you didn't understand were blatantly explained but you guys just missed it by not listening lol, not just this episode but previous ones too.

[@ZYaKnoe249]

That’s always been one of my cons with this group in all of their reactions. The slightest thing that makes them go ‘hmm’ over takes what goes on within the actual show they are watching.

[@loveschunkontv1900]

Literally I just gave up them understanding this show. They want the backstories of the characters. Then a character episode is given to them.... they talk over it ....miss literally things that are told to them, try to talk about maps, and then they obsess over about how the video was sent to them?!!? ..... I have no problem you not liking a character if you actually understand the character. But at this point I am pretty certain they literally made stupid jokes over a lot of Faye's motivations during Jupiter Jazz and Speak like a Child, and doubt they actually understood her Valentine episode (obsessing about her age for some reason). I am going to ignore any comments they make about Faye....I mean they literally couldn't figure out Jet was called "Black Dog" , so I don't expect them to figure out Faye's arc to "belong"

[@BigHank75]

I had a TOTALLY different reaction after watching this session. The idea of Faye watching her younger self with so much hope and optimism, and then seeing herself as a totally different person was sad af. Then finding out she couldn't remember anything was devastating. Watching that part in your 20s is rough.

[@ZYaKnoe249]

I remember watching it for the first time and being really sad after

[@thedanceoftuila6999]

it was the first episode I cried.

[@thedanceoftuila6999]

I was really waiting for it because I thought it would change their perspective on Faye. And it is so important for the end of the show, even if they go back and rewatch this one the ending won't have the same impact now imo. I won't even watch the rest of the video if everyone's saying it's so disappointing. Gosh, they were talking about youtubers when she was being both spontaneous and shy trying to send a heartfelt message to her future self. :/

[@frankoceanstanaccount7126]

I watched this anime like a month ago and this, plus the final three sessions, made me cry. It's just really sad. Faye's life is so unfair. I'm really mad at Nahid, because he's always messing it up to the others. Gladly, Miky wasn't around for this one or he would be bringing up his really absurd theories all along the session.

[@avataraang4312]

The whole Amnesia theme of Faye is a great allegory of becoming a jaded Adult. You dont remember being that Cheerful Hopeful Kid. This show has way more impact as an adult then when most people first saw it as teens.

666melodeath666 sorry bro when they tried relate or makes some sense outta of the faye recording a message to her future self as trying to be a “vlogger youtuber”. They lost all my respect.

[@razkable]

I love how the group couldn't see the meaning behind this ep or how emotional impactful that speaking to herself scene is because its so different from the faye they know and paint in a box...it went over their heads and hearts and even if they did get it it would still would be weird to them...this is what I hate about new anime fans who watch these shows with diverse characters..it is odd to them and throws them off because they like simple characters traits they can apply to recognize them so they think they know them fully..smdh...I guess turning our brains on and seeing growth change is just not something new media fans enjoy as much as they used to is it?..its so sad but also shows how charismatic hopeful and energized curious ideological and most of all happy she was in her time

Very funny that they immediately focused on "where'd the tape come from?" Surely they realize that kind of thing isn't important. They're 18 episodes in and it doesn't seem like they understand Cowboy Bebop is episodic in nature.

[@infernityable1369]

[@prophetofgreed]

I'm sad you missed the point of this episode, how it completely explains Faye's character and the tragedy of her life. Her accident turned her from an optimistic, cheerful person to a negative pessimist that's spiteful of the world. It's like a part of her was torn away. She's lost everyone she's knew or loved, wracked with debt and doesn't even have the memory of her youth. It's depressing as hell, and you can't help but feel so bad for Faye.

[@jr4chargers]

Idk about you guys, but that last part of Faye's tape, it kind of made me sad. Everybody has that kid inside, when we grow up, we sort of forget to do simple things that makes us truly happy. So, basically I saw that part as kid inside telling us that even if we feel alone, we will always have that kid inside cheering, and hoping for the best for our adult selves. :)

[@douglas2938]

Yep. It's even more sad because she didn't _just_ forget like the rest of us tend to do.

[@nikolaiquack8548]

Yeah, after seeing the like to dislike ratio on this video, then seeing the comments and then watching a little bit of it myself, I can safely say that you missed the whole point. Sadly, you had kind of already missed the point during Jupiter Jazz where it was made so obvious that Faye has commitment issues to any type of personal relationship and is constantly in between wanting to belong somewhere and leaving that place again, because she's afraid of losing it. All you had to say about her in those two episodes was: Oh, she just wants attention. I don't wanna get all moral high ground on you guys, but that's such a shallow, fucked up thing to say. It's like watching a person with depression being like: What an attention seeker. Welp, I hope you read these comments so that you understand why we're kind of disappointed by you missing out on the entire point of Faye's character.

[@jiangyuanca]

I was tearing up when I watched this episode as the young Faye cheering her-ten-years-older-self up while the adult Faye watch speechlessly, unable to recognize the stranger in the screen. Why do we make records, be it cave paintings, diaries, pictures, or video recordings? To put it online to make money? That seems to be the only thing you guys could comprehend. No. We hope to record us at the moment. We want to preserve our state of being, our memories, our feelings. We want to remind our future selves what we were in the past. As young Faye said, “Don’t loss me”. Yet, as much as we desperately try, eventually, through amnesia or other toils of life, one always loss that pure and exuberant self when growing up and become someone who keeps losing the bets against life. So much so that our past self could look just as strange and distant as the young Faye in the screen. Looking at Faye regaining a few glimpses of the past only reminded us how much more precious memories she has lost, and how much we all have lost growing up. Unfortunately, it seems you guys are unable to understand or appreciate any of that. I use to look forward for the day you guys get to the last few episodes. I want to see your reaction when Call me Call me starts to play hauntingly in the background. Based on what I just saw, I probably would dread for that moment. Therefore, thumbs down, unsubscribe.

[@eaglehawktigerbear_949]

Cool how you were more interested in nitpicking than actually paying attention to the episode 👌👌

[@Gabriermcorrea]

The tale that jet tells in the beginning is a Japanese fairy tale (otogi banashi), who in a typical modern version is a fisherman who is rewarded for rescuing a turtle, and carried on its back to the Dragon Palace (Ryūgū-jō) which lies beneath the sea. There he is entertained by the princess Otohime as reward. He spends what he believes to be 4 or 5 days, but upon his return to his home village, he finds himself 300 years in the future. When he opens the box (tamatebako) he was told never to open, he turns into an old man.

[@ChrisDixon__]

Wow, I never heard of this fairy tale before. Pretty interesting. Thank you for this comment.

[@terryjumblies2493]

yeah but how did they know where to deliver the tape to....

[@Blahwoof85]

Faye's tape really gets to me. Faye lost so many years of her life & she can't get those years back, the girl in the tape she knows that it's her but she doesn't remember her. The line where she says "don't lose me" she orginally meant it as "you can do it, me" "don't lose, me" "I belive in you" but now over time for Faye it became "don't lose me" "don't lose who I am" but she can't remember any of it so in a way she did lose that girl & she's gone forever so it's like a part of her died.

[@Mike.325]

Same

[@delariean]

Well she was frozen for 54 years. The setting of the show is in 2071. Minus 54 years you get 2017 when she was frozen. Minus another maybe 10 years if you count how old she is in the video.

[@delariean]

Also if you think about it, this person is a total stranger to Faye. She has NO memory of her past. She doesn't remember who she was before her accident. Now all of a sudden, this virtual blast from the past comes to her to hint at the person she was before and she can't for the life her recognize this person. That's a tragedy for her. A past that is not hers and yet it is hers at the same time.

[@SheheryarAhsan]

Citron Hi, I’m Sheheryar the one who edited the episode. I am a huge fan of bebop and Wantanabe’s work. So naturally, I was excited when these guys were reacting to it. Fayes arc is one of the best parts of the show, it really changes her from the femme fatal to a tragic character. As an editor, I usually focus on what their take on the show is, because it’s what’s key in the reaction. Unfortunately sometimes the reaction isn’t there, but I always try to highlight the important points in the show. There’s a lot of nuance in each episode that can be missed without multiple viewings and there is only so much I can keep with 10 minutes. Thanks for the feedback though, I’ll try a little harder to catch these things in the edit.

[@ChaosZero1031]

It's basically like Back To The Future but instead of Doc Brown mailing Marty, Faye just post-dated the package to be mailed to herself in ten years and the delivery company just happened to keep forwarding it to every last location she was known to be at for the last 100 or so years. Some delivery companies have apparently actually done that where they held onto a package and delivered it decades later to any surviving family member of who it was addressed to as long as the company or the records are still around.

Now everyone sit back and realize that these guys have 4354 patreons. Meaning, at the very _least,_ they get $4354 per month, and probably more like $21770 or more when you factor in their $5-$100/month tiers. They get this for sitting around with their friends and watching tv shows. You know, the thing most people do for fun in their limited free time when they aren't doing any actual work. And the kicker is, they're not even good at it. Any completely fucking average, random group of friends could do this and probably end up doing a better job without even trying. I mean, fuck, I've sat around watching shows with friends, and we were all funnier, more attentive and had better insight, all without having an audience to feel any sense of obligation towards. And here these guys are, with a studio setup, recording for thousands of people, literally being paid more than most people's monthly income for it, and required to do nothing but pay attention for just 22 minutes and give some commentary.

I was given a word problem asking how much it would cost someone to ship a package based on the weight of the package, the cost of postage, the distanced sent, etc. I got hung up on the fact that the person in the problem was sending stuff to their aunt in Wales, and since at the point I had never heard of Wales before (Hooray for USA education), I thought their aunt inside of a whale. I didn't even figure out the rest of problem, I just sat there for the rest of class trying to figure out the logistics of living inside a whale and receiving packages from the outside. Long story short, don't get so hung up on every detail that you miss the big picture, fail your math assignment, and have to redo it during recess.

[@boiledcrap]

The title is a reference to the Bible, 1 Corinthians 13:11: "When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things." We are born, we play and create and explore as children. In doing so we learn to be responsible, reserved, logical, realistic, or practical as we grow into adulthood. Some look back at our childhood with fondness, some with regret, some with relief. But in Faye's case it is similar to those with perhaps a midlife crisis or those with crippling depression; you are an adult and you have so much to be accountable for. Your bills and debts, your family, your responsibilities. Suddenly you realize you spent so much time working and worrying that you can't remember where the time went, who that child you once were, or even what it was like to have genuine hope and joy...That is the lesson.

[@HeyFrank]

No, it's a reference to a Herbie Hancock song.

In keeping with the musical tilt of all of the titles, it's actually a reference to Speak Like a Child by Herbie Hancock. Your interpretation is still valid though, works on a lot of levels.

the tape's been passed along ever since 10 years after the gate accident. it was delivered to the clinic of Whitney so they gave the info that her name is now Faye Valentine.

Have you guys never seen Back to the Future 2? I know I'm probably going to sound like an ass but, good grief its not rocket science.

[@SamuriLemonX18]

Damn...was looking forward to this one.

[@Wveth]

I'd bet my life savings that you guys did not understand why the show is so beloved when you got to the end. Hopefully you watched it again on your own so you could actually absorb it. This was insufferable. It went right over your head by a goddamn mile.

[@TheJerbol]

Emotional moments are blunted by someone talking over it, especially to add nothing

[@tsogobauggi8721]

9:01 I haven't heard about Nahid's writing since Avatar/Sokka's Master episode, where Nahid wrote his name. :) 10:47 That song is called 'The Egg and I.' 16:15 Well, that reaction to the end was not what expected. And there wasn't even the part when Faye has tears in her eyes.

[@bobriemersma]

Hilarious. The crew is both too young to understand the message, and too old to understand the novelty of recording yourself in the early days of home camcorders so they don't understand why you'd record a message. Talk about not being able to see the forest for the trees. Maybe they'll rewatch in 10 years and the episode will have more impact on them. I cry for the future of the world, nobody will be left but cavemen once the last smartphone battery dies.

[@manuelsilva9993]

Holy hell what an awful reaction. It was so stupid how they focused so damn much on where the tape came from when ultimately it doesn't matter what mattered was lookin at *and* *paying* *attention* *to* young faye and how much of a different person she is and if she even can be really considered the same person since she lost her memory one of the most impactful scenes of this show ruined by a complete lack of attention, focusing on such stupid irrelevant points, and suraj not shutting his god damn mouth. Absolutely fucking horrendous wow.

[@therambler3713]

Man you guys missed nearly everything. Not just this episode but also in the previous episodes. Maybe cowboy bebop is too complex for you guys.

[@maiqtheliar_]

thats not bizarre, thats wholesome

[@DavidRomigJr]

I’ve mailed a letter to myself 5 years in the future when I was a child. (It was supposed to be 10.) It’s a surreal experience hearing younger you speak to you. The package they received was marked as being repeatedly forwarded which means courier after courier sent it to location after location looking for its final destination probably every couple years for about 50 years. “When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.”

[@bowlsem7]

That 20th century show was 90210 btw.

[@BrowenWhitefire]

BTW that was Akihabara, the tech and nerd capital of Japan. There is more to this story, but it isn't next episode. Oh and btw it wasn't 100 years its closer to 44 years, making it possible for one of those girls to still be alive... The non profit most likely takes care of those still left on earth, and may be run by her child hood friend.

[@ryanphillips5483]

I don't doubt you, but Jet has to be AT LEAST 44 so wouldn't he know above vhs tapes?

[@Ryuksgelus]

+Ryan Phillips Jet is only 36 but even teenagers today barely know what VHS is today and Beta out dates the Normies.

[@BrowenWhitefire]

Ryan Phillips the gate didn't fail on it's first use... Colonies and outposts must have existed before the gate accedent. Jett may have been born on Ganymede . No exposure to old tech.

[@kamenwaticlients]

The show takes place in 2071 the moon gate blew up around 2022 Faye was already frozen by then. She was frozen for like 50 or more years so the tape is from the early 2000s

[@KlooKloo]

oh my god don't fucking post spoilers you knob

[@superlive98]

If you recall Session #15, Faye's real surname is unknown. "Valentine" was the pseudonym made for her by Whitney Haggis Matsumoto, her fraudulent lawyer. Since only 3 people would recognize that girl in the tape as Faye Valentine and know to send the packages to the Bebop for her, the sender must have been some combination of Haggis, Dr. Bacchus, or Nurse Manley. From the taped footage, Faye's home city is obviously Singapore with its world famous lion statue. Also, the TV show being watched by the video collector was a parody of the original BEVERLY HILLS 90210, whose lead characters were Brenda and Brandon Walsh (Shannen Doherty and Jason Priestly). The Session title (following the usual pattern of alternating between Jazz and Rock references) was taken from the Herbie Hancock album/song SPEAK LIKE A CHILD (1968).

[@mookiestewart3776]

The amount of missing the point here with all of you is something that can’t be calculated by the worlds best mathematicians

[@welshbandit7208]

How old is Suraj? Cause it would appear that he's after the home movies period of time. Kinda hurt to watch 😬

[@TCReyes]

The most normie reaction to this episode lol. Love you guys, but I already know the comments will be ugly.

[@ThomyThompson]

You were watching the episode ... but you weren't watching. ;-)

[@manangandhi8338]

Only logged in to youtube just to dislike the video. You guys are insulting the show.

[@Darkphoenix3450]

Finger prints, She is on record all she had to do to find out who she was is go to the police and let them run a search on her finger prints.

[@sharlesdaviskendy2391]

Every episode is named after a song. Some are fake songs (Asteroid Blues and Waltz for Venus), some are songs are from the show (Ballad I’d Fallen Angels, Real Folk Blues) and a few are real songs (Bohemian Rhapsody, Hard Luck Women). Speak Like a Child is a Style Council song. It’s quite catchy.

[@markyochoa]

Lets see if Marketa changes her tune about Faye after this...

[@Sam-mm5yd]

never lol. None of them really like Faye because they keep misunderstanding her episodes. Like for this one, they were really confused about the video tape haha

[@markyochoa]

Well that was disappointing.

[@markyochoa]

Yeah. They were focusing on how the tape got there which was completely besides the point.

[@CAKE.experience]

Lol I have no beef with Faye. She is not a team player for sure or has not proven to be otherwise as of yet. I can see she has reasons and I'm not judging. I am just saying man

[@sunnyweather2655]

Sorry Spike, I loved your analysis, but I would honestly be surprised Marketa actually bothered to read this 1 month later.

[@tiredidealist]

I guess your name is pretty accurate after all.

[@PeverellTheThird]

The comments section is lit!!

[@Mike.325]

Facts lol I’m up here just reading the comments and stuff🤣

[@MWalkster2225]

You guys really blew this holy shit

[@houseoftoussaint9609]

“In your time, I’m no longer here, but I am here today. And I’ll always be cheering for you right here. Cheering for you, my only self!” Still makes me tear up. That person I used to be. I’m just being silly.

[@Mike.325]

Same

[@frankenzion0001]

Easter egg: The cheesy drama, the video store guy was watching, was a veiled reference to Beverly Hills 90210. If you go back and watch, at one point, the guy's head partially blocks the last half of two people's names: "Jason Prie..." & "Shanen D...", which is a reference to Jason Priestly & Shannon Dougherty, both of whom played the leading characters.

[@greial3695]

correct. that was famous in Japan at that time.

[@samanthamaclean1430]

I'm sorry but how did you guys not cry in this episode 😭

[@kod4062]

wtf why are all the comments so mean lol... they were just criticising it for something not ez to see... when they think about the story they'll get it its not like they're reacting just for their feelings like u all are they're doing it for us. what i think happened with the tape is that it was buried in a time capsule and then when someone dug it up after ten years she still had around 40yrs left in a frozen state and the package only found her now thats she's finally found a home

[@RedEyesRobotics]

DO NOT watch the movie before the finally!! The movie was made after the show by the creators for an actual reason, it's not just some piece that was left out.

[@DarthUchiha91]

What reason was that?

[@aoirei111]

They'll just make jokes though the whole thing and miss most of the dialog anyways

[@manuelsilva9993]

Over 4000 people paid actual money to watch this steaming pile of dogshit early. Wow some people need to get a handle on their priorities

[@bigtoken90]

Lol y'all missed the damn point the tape is very important to Faye's character and y'all ion know talking bout vlogging it's so sad because you guys are in my age range I watch these on my lunch break because it's weird to see people our age that have never seen cowboy Bebop but 18 eps in and you still think this is a kids show I knew there was something deeper about cowboy Bebop at 12 and y'all to busy making corny jokes to pick up on it

[@billcipher3946]

big stacie reacts they really said a kids show?, that’s insulting to this legendary classic Anime. 😔

[@Mike.325]

Facts

[@LeethLee1]

just shudup during that damn emotional vlog! =P let the ladies have a scene ;) awesome reaction to follow along as always though guys

[@krys9463]

The episode that makes you feel old.

[@ItsHaldun]

"Don't lose me!" the young Faye says so optimistically always makes me tear up. She obviously meant it as "Don't lose, me!" but it can be also read as "don't lose me (this person, the memories that make up me). And in the end, current Faye did lose her. That's why she is lost for words. It's a complex emotion born from the relief of finally learning about your past, mixed with how you failed your younger self. God, I love this show.

[@philglass295]

Cowboy Bebop's just not for some people I guess, you either get it or you don't.

[@sunnyweather2655]

Cowboy bebop is not a show for super smart people, but if you're as dumb as the normies then yeah...

[@philglass295]

Truth Hurts *Lies Hurt*

[@Mike.325]

True

[@CaesiusX]

Btw, I vote to watch the movie *_afterward._* Just like everyone else had to back in the day. *_But more importantly,_*_ I think it'll make you feel better to watch it after._ If you want a good feeling when you're done with the show, I suggest you watch the movie after you finish the series. How's that for being redundant?

[@Jonpushesbuttons]

If Suraj hadn’t been talking through the whole video MAYBE you guys would have caught onto the meaning of the episode. Here’s hoping the meaning of future episodes doesn’t cruise over your heads.

You're guys dancing to CowBoyBebop opening is on point 😂😂😂

[@TheKannibalistic]

*dances happily to the intro theme* *completely misses the theme of the episode* smh

[@stevedonnie4077]

Glad they covered the emotional point at least somewhat but man it really seem like they need answers to every little thing and character logic to be totally laid out in order to be satisfied. No judgement though, maybe that's just how the conversation always goes or just how they like to process stories, just interesting to see.
