For modern anime fans, it might be confusing as to why Cowboy Bebop was revolutionary. Sure, the animation is great for its time, the story is great, and so is the music, but not necessarily “revolutionary” by today’s standards. However, its influence on the industry as a whole is clear, with many people clamoring for more Cowboy Bebop even today.
There is currently no intention for the creation of a second season of Cowboy Bebop. The series director, Shinichirō Watanabe, has stated that the compact nature of Cowboy Bebop is part of what makes it special. Everything that you needed to know about the plot and characters was presented in a neat 26 episodes and a movie. It needs nothing more.
If you’re wondering if there’s any source material left to adapt, Cowboy Bebop actually started as an anime before getting a manga adaptation, so the anime is the source material.
Considering that the anime is already done, there is no plot for Season 2 available. If something were released, it would be completely new. There’s really no way of knowing how they’d continue Spike’s journey. And that’s assuming Spike even survived the end of the first season.
