Set for release on December 16th, 2014 in regular DVD edition and Blu-ray edition in addition to retailer exclusive packaging at FUNimation itself and Amazon, the on-disc extras have now been revealed for Cowboy Bebop. The on-disc extras are the same across the various retailer specific editions as it’s all about packaging for those, so fans who want the actual on-disc material will be getting the same thing (mostly) no matter what they buy. There is, of course, a twist as the Blu-ray editions will be getting just a little bit more as you can see below:

Plot concept: The Bebop crew is just trying to make a buck. This motely lot of intergalactic loners teams up to track down fugitives and turn them in for cold hard cash. Spike is a hero whose cool facade hides a dark and deadly past. The pilot Jet is a bruiser of a brute who can’t wait to collect the next bounty. Faye Valentine is a femme fatale prone to breaking hearts and separating fools from their money. Along for the ride are the brilliant-but-weird hacker Ed and a super-genius Welsh Corgi named Ein. On their own, any one of them would be likely to get lost in the sprawl of space, but together, they’re the most entertaining gang of bounty hunters in the year 2071.
