Yamane had not worked with Watanabe yet, but his credits in anime included Bubblegum Crisis and The Vision of Escaflowne. Minami joined the project as he wanted to do something different from his previous work on mecha anime. [23][33] Concept[edit] Cowboy Bebop was Watanabe's first project as solo director, as he had been co-director in his previous works. [36] His original concept was for a movie, and during production he treated each episode as a miniature movie. [37][38] His main inspiration for Cowboy Bebop was the first series of the anime Lupin III, a crime drama focusing on the exploits of the series' titular character. [23] When developing the series' story, Watanabe began by creating the characters first. He explained, "the first image that occurred to me was one of Spike, and from there I tried to build a story around him, trying to make him cool. "[36] While the original dialogue of the series was kept clean to avoid any profanities, its level of sophistication was made appropriate to adults in a criminal environment. [23] Watanabe described Cowboy Bebop as "80% serious story and 20% humorous touch". [39] The comical episodes were harder for the team to write than the serious ones, and though several events in them seemed random, they were carefully planned in advance. [31] Watanabe conceived the series' ending early on, and each episode involving Spike and Vicious was meant to foreshadow their final confrontation.[135] The light novel series was the tenth best-selling light novel series in Japan between November 2015 and May 2016, selling 263,357 copies. [136] During that period, the first and second volumes were the 35th and 48th best-selling light novel volumes, selling 49,194 and 41,617 copies, respectively. [137] The series was the fourth best-selling series in 2016, selling 1,007,381 copies between November 2015 and November 2016. [138] Its first three volumes were the fourteenth, 21st, and 30th best selling volumes of the year, selling 155,363, 127,970, and 110,574 copies, respectively. [139] In 2017, the series was the third best-selling series, with 925,671 copies sold. [140] Its first, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth volumes respectively ranked nineteenth (60,135 copies), 25th (56,001 copies), seventh (101,480 copies), and twelfth (79,431 copies) in the period between November 2016 and May 2017.
