Fans of science fiction and anime were eating well in the 90s. From Trigun and Ghost in the Shell to Neon Genesis Evangelion and Cowboy Bebop, viewers were spoiled for choice, and these series have remained popular to this day. The latter, in particular, often finds itself named the best space western anime ever made, and has also ended up on countless 'Greatest Anime of All Time' lists. Its jazzy soundtrack, memorable characters, and expert blend of suspense and well-timed comedy put Cowboy Bebop on the map, but one other series in the medium managed to quickly become a cult classic after appearing on Toonami in the early 2000s: Outlaw Star.
