Where to watch the movie?

Hello! I just finished Cowboy Bepop and I loved it! I knew practically nothing about it besides there is also a movie but I don’t necessarily wanna buy the movie is their any sites streaming it?

Also would like to know as much as I can about Cowboy Bepop or facts I should know about it as I went into it without knowing anything

I've rented it from my local library before, you could check that out if you have something that can play DVDs

Sadly I don’t know where to stream the movie for free but wanted to share the experience of seeing the movie in a small indie cinema where I live. I don’t watch anime movies in theatres very often, so it was really satisfying seeing it on the big screen, like you could actually feel how much effort the entire animation team had put into every fight scenes, every movements and even scenes where nothing is happening. I think cinemas should show these classics more often alongside newer ones

I'm in Canada, and there are no legal ways to watch the movie. It was either ride the high seas or buy it off Amazon for $20. I choose to buy it and finish the collection.

That's what I do, too. Its gotten a little out of hand on my end, hahaha, darn sales. But, collecting and supporting is an awesome thing. Especially when companies just dont care about preservation anymore.

You love it, own it.

If you're in the US, you'll love sentai filmworks. They are always having amazing sales, and I mean amazing. That's how I started. Unfortunately, they dont ship to Canada anymore :(

I think a basement den sounds like a good place to watch the movie.

I bought a blu-ray copy from eBay. It’s a UK import, but region-free.
