Sorry, the formula worked back then because people weren’t concerned about PC. The formula allowed different races and genders and cultures to relate, not to the shade that the girls were colored in, but to their personalities. Siblings and friends would give themselves a label, “I am more like Bubbles”, “I’m more…

I’m guessing if you’ve never heard it before, anime probably isn’t your jam. But Cowboy Bebop isn’t really your typical anime, and the music (including the intro) composed by Yoko Kanno is just one aspect of its awesomeness. It’s worth giving an episode or two a watch.
