After another long hiatus in the realm of Anime Dream reviews, we've got a new pair of reader submissions for you to enjoy. First off is another classy review by Peter Noonan, describing his experience with Cowboy Bebop. Find out why Noonan made the transition from a disparager of what he thought was an Old Western anime series to a self-proclaimed addict of this bounty-hunting romp through outer space here!

Secondly, Lung Kue Chang, whom you might recognize from the message boards a while back as Kenjinx, has brought us his thoughts on CLAMP's first animated version of X/1999, namely X the Movie. Come see how someone not familiar with the manga rates this short exploration of fate here, before the DVD release later this month.

As an aside, ElfShadow's divine punishment for writing too many reviews and flooding poor Legion's mailbox long ago has finally manifested in this task of handling all non-ES reviews. It remains to be seen whether ElfShadow's lack of eloquent review introductions and clever screenshot captions will be outweighed in any real way by a speedier turnaround time for posting new reviews or the general principle of such poetic justice. Legion, however, would strongly encourage you to write lots of reader reviews and pile them in ElfShadow's mailbox, to keep him too busy to write more reviews of his own to pile in Legion's mailbox. Only you can stop forest fires...
