Arrrrr!


My daughter [info]madelineusher is heavily involved in the anime video mashup culture -- taking snippets of one or more animes and weaving them together with a song to create a music video.  When she shows these to me, I usually feel like I'm missing a lot; they tend to be filled with visual and lyrical in-jokes to which I am not privy.  But this morning she showed me one that uses scenes from "Cowboy Bebop", my own favorite anime, to the tune of "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything", a punk cover of a children's song.  The result is brilliant...though as usual, it probably helps a lot if you're familiar with "Cowboy Bebop".
