One of the biggest issues with Netflix’sCowboy Bebopwas that it was slackly based on the original Zanzibar copal . This left way for too many originative liberty , making the live - action adaptation a far cry from its source cloth . Samurai Champloo ’s springy - action can make up for the error by close adapting the anime while still allow some creative expansion , like Netflix’sOne Piece . Shinichiro Watanabe ’s gum anime shows also evocatively utilize music , which is something Netflix’sCowboy Bebopcould not capture despite borrowing some lead from the original anime .
The alive - action Samurai Champloo can fix this bynot just but reprocess Nujabes ' soulful sept hip - hop racetrack as ground musical score but also underlining how they align with the show ’s mishmash of genres and cultures . LikeCowboy Bebop , aSamurai Champloolive - action may also come with its own set of stylistic and story challenges . However , the fact that there are already so many plausible rooter - made live - action iterations ofSamurai Champlooproves that it is possible to create a compelling live - natural action adaption that captures the disembodied spirit of the original Shinichiro Watanabe anime and fixCowboy Bebop ’s fault .
