Welcome to the Fandom Promo post, everyone!
Here's where you get those eyes on your fandoms for sign-ups!
Share what makes your Yuletide fandoms the shiniest and why you love them. A big part of Yuletide is how small our fandoms can be, and this is a good way to make sure other people know what gems there are out there!

Useful tip (Not required, but helps people if they want to engage with your fandom!):
- It's best to make each fandom its own entry with its own title in the subject line! That makes it easier for people to find/see what you're promoting! Don't worry about 'spam', that is the entire point of this entry and you're using it exactly as intended.

Cowboy Bebop
Media: TV show on Netflix (sub and dub)
Approx length: 26 episodes
Where to find it: Netflix (sub and dub)
What is it, in summary?:
What do you love about it?:
Honestly a classic found family anime about five misfits who come from different walks of life that are able to come and find peace together in their little group. I love how each character develops their own relationship with the other four characters and how they have such differing but supportive, nourishing relationships with one another.
I truly believe Cowboy Bebop is an iconic show, known for a great ensemble cast, that can hit both adventurous and melancholic notes as the cast learns to heal from their past wounds.
It involves space bounty hunters, so it has a bit of a western vibe with a space element, which gives it a cool atmosphere.
The characters are definitely the star of the show, though. Each individual has a unique personality about them, and it is SO much fun watching them bicker like family. They all get under each other skin, but at the end of the day, they care about each other so much. There is a lot of lovely banter and shenanigans as these people all act unhinged and unpredictable, which makes Cowboy Bebop a very funny watch.
Furthermore, the graphics still hold up and aren't much of a deterrent to watching the show. I actually really love the aesthetic of the show. The music is also amazing, starting from the opening theme.
What sort of things are you likely to request for it?:
Any medium works for me! This is one of my favorite character crews, and I think often about what their journeys are like post-canon. I would love to consume any sort of work regarding the Bebop 5.
Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships?:
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence):
guns, shooting
