When I saw the film, I thought to myself, this is a film that cannot be recommended to others. As far as the story itself is concerned, there is actually nothing special about it. Whether it is a unit drama or a main plot, telling it to others by yourself probably won't make them feel extremely attractive. This work (in my opinion) relies on the oozing taste, the characters, the story and the atmosphere, a little bit of desolation, helplessness, loneliness, and perhaps romance, slowly seeping into the viewer's mind. bone. Or to be more precise, the viewer, who has these things in their bones, resonates with these flavors oozing from the play.

While Spike seems to be the character that gets the most attention, the character I actually miss the most is Ed. She never seems to show the above-mentioned temperament directly like the other three protagonists, but I still can't think of her as a carefree gifted child. I don't remember where I saw a sentence, "Ed is the loneliest, but also the happiest." This statement really likes me. At a young age, without family or regular friends, he wandered the world alone. Before I got on the Bebop, I lived alone in a garbage dump and roamed the online world happily. We later learned that she once wandered into an orphanage, and then disappeared three years later in the director's unknowing, "like a stray dog or cat". But such Ed did not forget all the people and places of his past experiences, so he revisited the old place, joined those little friends who had never forgotten her, and happily ate another one meal.
Ed's father, a martial arts master who beats Spike with martial arts, is a hopelessly romantic fool like all the men in the film. She was so arrogant that she even forgot her daughter. It was not easy to meet each other, but immediately forgot his daughter for his own ideal. But what Faye told her, "You've got a place to go, you should find it. That's the best thing" clearly stirred something up in Ed. She finally decided to go. Didn't say goodbye in person, just gave Spike a windmill. The dull men didn't understand Ed's decision, but Ein did. Although it turned back twice, it decided to go with Ed. Spike was left, staring at the smiling faces on the floor and smoking "bye bye".
Accompanied by BGM's Call me, Call me, two men eating five boiled eggs without a word, this is the most magical scene in my heart.
