Synopsis:

Follow interstellar bounty hunters Spike Spiegel and Jet Black as they scour the galaxy for criminals with prices on their heads. Hoping to escape their past, they live on the spaceship Bebop, but it's a dangerous business and old enemies don't forget easily. Allies come from unlikely sources, however, as they find comrades in the beautiful swindler Faye Valentine, the genius child hacker Ed and the genetically engineered 'data dog' Ein. Will they be able to help each other though their respective struggles, or is their fate really inevitable?

With the war now back in full swing, will Shinn and the others find a way to restore peace?

In space, nobody can hear your mecha explode. Throughout both of these great space epics, there are some really kick-ass mecha battles that keep you on the edge of your seat the whole time. Another interesting connection between them is that a lot of the character development comes from the pasts of the characters. In both shows, the main characters have a dark past--something that they've lost, or a heavy burden they now have to carry. If you enjoy space animes with action-packed battles and exteremely interesting characters, you'd do good to give these two a try.

Excellent fight scenes and gunplay as well as cool characters. Ridiculous amounts of fan service though (so much it\'s funny).

Ouran High School Host Club

Ouran High School Host Club

Ouran High is a school for the extremely wealthy or, in Haruhi's case, the extremely talented. But no amount of talent will help when Haruhi accidentally drops an eight million yen vase in a music room. The vase was the property of Ouran High School Host Club, a group of attractive young men who, for a fee, provide their time and affections for their lovesick clientele: the female students. Fascinated by this strange new specimen, a poor and clumsy commoner, they force Haruhi to work for them until the debt is repaid; but they get a lot more than they bargained for...

This is a little bit of a strange recommendation but one thing these shows both excel at is character development. The way the characters backrounds are given to you makes these shows very entertaining.

Samurai X embodies the darker side of Cowboy Bebop, retaining that sense of sheer style, though in an admittedly much different setting. If you like your samurai anime dark, violent, and stylish, this OVA works great.

the main character and the girl in Yakumo are really simlar to Spike / Fay always arguing about whatever and yet they end up on more than good terms. The plot are also similar formula-wise in more than one way.
