isn't there a baseball episode that connects to nothing or am i thinking of a different series?I mean I get it, but there were quite a few episodes I thought had nothing to do with the overall plot, I guess the beauty of the show is each person has a different interpretation of it. I felt the actual story was interesting and they built the show differently then I would. I didn't need a few episodes.
Champloo IMO I can see the filler still being a connect and development of the 3 characters and the overall story more than bebop
The anime Cowboy Bebop came first before the manga adaption. So there is no filler.
The manga for Champloo came first so whatever is filler in the anime is filler.
