| wow spike took a huge gamble on that. at least one of the things victoria said about bounty hunters is true concerning spike. |
| I liked her. She knew to much about bounty hunters. We find out she was married to one. I like that. We also got to see a clash of music styles - Spike liked jazz and she heavy metal....and neither the two shall meet. lol |
| What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about? |
| seriously, when do they actually make money? O.o |
jacobpaige said: Does it even matter?seriously, when do they actually make money? O.o Brilliant episode. HMQ was badass. |
 |
| Loved the whole idea of truckers, but there was also a lot of bullshit imo.... flying in space without a spacesuit? shooting a gun in space? wtf? |
| No sig :( |
| lol. The Blonde waitress. Ooooh Spike's boxers, nice.^_^ That was so awesome, shooting the gun, Spike's a reckless genius. |
 |
| Lol that Heavy Metal music sounded like Iron Maiden music. but good episode overall. |
     |
| Spike's hangover was awesome xD i really liked this episode :-) VT is a travestite?wow 5/5 :) |
Sayonara,papa! "Just how a mirror reflects you,people will also reflect your heart." ~Athena Glory,Aria "Whatever happens,happens" ~Spike Spiegel's thoughts on dying(Cowboy Bebop) |
| Spike wants money the next he's either doing something reckless or being generous. Really liked this episode. |
| Nothing special, but VT wasn't too bad. |
| Boo: "Boo!" |
| I liked this episode, Heavy Metal Queen. :D |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| I'm assuming there was actually air inside. They WERE inside an old facility. Thats why Spike only put in earplugs for "pressure." -laughs- Either way friggen brilliant episode. Loved the Heavy Metal Queen. Loved the fact the little bastard had such a huge bounty on him despite being a little bastard. |
| I love how at about 15-16mins in when spike was leaving to chase Decker, in the background you could see Ein floating over the floor, trying to walk ^^ Ein is just so awesome :P |
jacobpaige said: seriously, when do they actually make money? O.o |
 |
| Ein doesn't get a break, give the poor fella some decent food already! This episode breaks a lot of stereotypes, from the Heavy Metal Queen (great character btw) to the little bounty guy who makes bombs. It was a very entertaining episode, great tunes, nice story behind it, and once again a killing finale! Spike is just crazy, the things he does (and swallows) are way ahead of any average human being :P See You Space Cowboy... |

| LOL @ Ein's whimpering when Jet tried to feed him bean sprouts! |
| Spike and the others sure are a hopeless bunch. Every time they get close to their target, it ends up dead. |
| Honestly, best episode of the series so far. But I'm only 7 episodes in so you know. :P Just something about it was MUCH more engaging from the get-go compared to the first six, and the idea of truckers in space was pretty cool. |
| Had hard time depicting the gender of that character this episode |
 |
| Don't see why everyone had so much difficulty depicting the gender of VT. The fact her colleague guessed her name as being "Vivian" should've made it obvious enough that she's a woman, and that was only three minutes into the episode. If that wasn't enough, then her mentioning of her husband to Spike should have sealed it. As a fan of metal, I quite enjoyed the music in this one. Sounded like Anthrax in parts :P. 4/5 for this episode. |
 |
| My fav. episode so far...but I like metal. There were "subtle" hints throughout the episode that VT is a woman. Anyways, trucker culture is more masculine. Makes some sense she'd style herself to be androgynous to fit in. Especially liked how none of the bounty hunters except Faye and the guy she mistook for the bounty didn't even question the intelligence...and then Faye just misses it. She can be reckless, but she still has some brainpower. I am glad she is more than just eye candy. |

Haha I was wondering the same thing, they always end up failing in the tasks we get to see, but always get to repair with some unknown cash flow.. As far as this episode goes it was very good, I loved the Heavy Metal Queen, and I just knew Spike would guess her name.. Intense scene when hes just floating in space.. That was awesome how he used his gun to get back, I was amazed at the brilliance and how quickly he solved that problem. Gotta think quick to stay alive! Until next time, space cowboy. |
jacobpaige said: seriously, when do they actually make money? O.o Haha, this. For me it was the weakest episode so far, though I liked HMQ. |
| Very enjoyable to watch :) |
 |
| This sure was a better episode that the last one! |
 |
| I LOVE this episode. Something about VT makes her super likable. And you can't forget about cute ol' Xeros! |

Until Spike said her name I was unaware of her sex really, she looked a lot like a man physically. But her voice very fe-- Anyway. Well actually when they were at the bar VT mentioned something about her husband, then you could realise she was female... Also since im listening in Dub i thought there was a problem with it , cause he (as i thought at first) sounded feminine ^^ |
| Rewatching the series and this is my favourite episode up to this point. Spike was hilarious with him taking a dump and cracking the egg. |

| Excellent episode. I love how they can give supporting characters such depth. |
| Flying cat!! |
| The comedy in this episode was the best so far. |
 |
| Good episode. I liked the first half more than the second half, the space action just wasn't interesting in my opinion, Spike's was good though. |

| Maybe I missed something but was there a reason VT tried to go after Decker? I don't think she was a Bounty Hunter so...what was her beef with him? |
 |
| I was thoroughly entertained, despite the sci-fi bs. Feel good episode, I hope HMQ comes back later. |

| he shoulda taken all that name cash like honestly. they need money |
"Urushibara Ruka. The mannerisms and voice of a woman... No... More feminine than any woman. But he's a guy. Taller than Mayuri, but so very thin... But he's a guy. Looks great in a miko outfit... But he's a guy. It's already twilight And yet, it's so hot. The cicadas are crying. But... He's a guy." |
| LOL that metalhead is a she, seriously? I thought it's a gay. And Jet i 36? XD Looks more like 46 chthonianghost said: "Can you please turn down that repulsive music?!" WELP, FAYE JUST LOST HER POSITION IN MY WAIFU LIST sadly this :'( |

autisticanime said: Maybe I missed something but was there a reason VT tried to go after Decker? I don't think she was a Bounty Hunter so...what was her beef with him? Decker hit and ran one of VT's friends so she thought she'd make him pay for damaging the guy's ship. At least that's her reasoning behind it anyway |
| This ep had the best OSTs of the show. |
