Summary
In the year 2071, a ragtag crew of bounty hunters travels the solar system aboard the spaceship Bebop chasing fugitives for cash. Led by laid-back ex-syndicate enforcer Spike Spiegel and former cop Jet Black, the crew grows to include amnesiac con artist Faye Valentine, eccentric hacker child Ed, and a genius corgi named Ein. Between jobs, each member is haunted by a past they can't outrun.
