My absolute favorite Cowboy Beboy episode is "Ballad of Fallen Angels". It shows Spike's first faceoff with his former friend Vicious, and the entire episode wears Spike's pain, Vicious's violence, and the memories of both so beautifully, I always get wrapped up in it, no matter how many times I watch it. The scene with Spike falling from the cathedral window to the the song "Green Bird", while reminiscing on his past is one of the best in anime. And it's quite a moment when Spike awakens to Faye beside him, humming the same tune his long-lost love sang so many years before, and all he can say is "You sing off-key."

So what do you think is the best CB episode? Remember to say why, or this thread will become very boring very quickly.

You're referring to "The Real Folk Blues, Pt. 2", and it is the last episode. Julia's death scene was quite lovely; as she falls to the ground with her golden hair waving behind her, a flock of birds takes flight. The best part of the scene is the silence, meaning that there is no bgm, only the noise of the birds behind her. This is the episode that also makes you really wonder if Faye had a thing for Spike, as his decision to leave and face Vicious one last time upset her more than anyone else.

Tough question...
I adore "Sympathy For The Devil" for the very same reasons... It's got a meloncholy to it that leaves you feeling thankful... Must be the way Spike felt.
I also love "Jupiter Jazz" parts one and two... You get to see a different side to some of the characters, especially Faye. I love in the end of part two, were Ed is painting her toenails... And she says, "Oh Ed... Anything but blue."
I loved Gren's character. There was something in him I could relate to. Almost as if he were a real person, I would want to reach out to him.

Hi how's it going, my favorite episode is "Toys in the Attic" I like it because it's a little different and it's hunny it was a light harted look at what goes on when the crew is not chaseing bounty's. I like the start when Spike cooking the food with a gas torch. It is genuinely a humorous ep with no real story. Also if you skip past the credits the have a 1 mimute preview of the next ep which are quite funny.

lol, All the episodes really rock, though my fav would probably have to be "Ballad of Fallen Angels", ep.5, it really is a special episode, where spike's past is revealed, along with a rival. alot of drama, and action mixed into it.
I also love "the Real Folk Blues Pt.2", the last ep, with Julia's death, and Spike's final faceoff with vicious, Faye and jet left behind, it really is dramatic, and great for an ending, though some would argue about spike killed in the end, i thought it was one of the best eps.

i wont bore you all by saying "Ballad of Fallen angels" (altho it totally rocks) but the one where they all eat mushrooms is hilariously trippy
