- Hi, I'm John Cho.
I play Spike Spiegel on Cowboy Bebop.
- I am Daniella Pineda, and I play Faye Valentine.
- And I'm Mustafa Shakir, and I play Jet Black.
- Hi, I'm Alex Hassell,
and I play Vicious in Cowboy Bebop.
- Hi, I'm Elena Satine, and I play Julia.
And today we are here with Buzzfeed
to take a quiz to find out which character we are.
- I really have no idea.
(noir music)
- First, what would be your go-to snack
on a bounty hunting mission?
The choices are popcorn, cookies, potato chips,
candy, trail mix,
no snacks, just a good whiskey.
- I know mine.
- What's yours?
- Trail mix! We're going to need energy.
- Mine too.
- I'm trail mix! We're trail mix across the board.
- What? I thought yours,
for sure, was going to be a whiskey.
- Why do you,
(Mustafa laughs)
what, why do you- - No hunch.
No hunch. No hunch.
- I don't, I was,
that's weird.
- I'm going to say, 'cause we're not currently
on a Cowboy Bebop training regime,
I'm going to say candy.
- If chocolate is included in candy,
then it would be candy. - That's what I was assuming.
- But if the no snacks was just a good glass of wine,
then it would have been that.
But I'm going to go with candy
as well. - Candy.
- Which Cowboy Bebop character would you want to go
on an adventure with:
Gren, Ana, Jet Black, Ein, Spike Spiegel, Faye Valentine?
I'm picking Jet Black, because he's reliable.
He's no bull (beep). He's a dad at heart.
I feel like I would be safe with him.
- I'm going with Ana because she's connected.
- That's true, actually.
- She's really,
I feel like she would have a spot in any city, and a guy,
and a hook up, and all that. - That's so true.
She's like the wolf.
- Yeah, it would be first-class.
- Man, I shouldn't have heard that answer. It's good.
All right. We're going to go with Jet Black.
I'm going to go,
I'm going to take an adventure with Jet Black.
- Narcissist.
- For me, it's Ein. Obviously.
Because I love dogs, so.
- I'm going to go, I'm going to go,
I'm going to go Faye Valentine,
because I want to hear her expletive-laden comedy.
- [Mustafa] What is your greatest strength:
loyalty, creativity, dedication,
honesty, courage, endurance?
- I pick courage. It's only because I'm impulsive.
It's just impulsivity masked as courage.
- I'll go with dedication.
I feel like once I get stuck on something,
I'm pretty hard to shake.
- He's a barnacle.
- I'm a whiskey-drinking barnacle.
- For Jet, which is, I mean, dedication.
He's the black dog. Once I bite down, I don't let go.
- Probably honesty.
I'm not sure my wife would agree that
that is my greatest strength,
but I'm fairly honest to a fault.
- I think I would say loyalty.
- [John] Choose an anime series to binge-watch:
Sailor Moon, Naruto, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood,
Attack on Titan, Death Note, My Hero Academia.
- Sailor Moon. Without a doubt.
- I don't know any of these. - Obviously.
- What do you suggest?
- Sailor Moon. That's the best.
You have a daughter, so Sailor Moon.
- Okay.
- Careful what you sign up to.
Um, Death Note.
- Well, I've seen Death Note,
so I don't need to binge-watch it.
- I think I'm going to go Attack on Titan,
just because there's some Cowboy Bebop link
in the Gren and Vicious fort.
- Fullmetal Alchemist.
- What was your dream job when you were a kid:
singer, firefighter, doctor, detective, actor, chef?
My dream job was to be a singer.
- Definitely detective.
That was, you know, that was what I was reading.
I was reading all those detective books when I was a kid.
- I wanted to be an actor, funny enough.
Watching Diff'rent Strokes,
I was like, "I (beep) with Arnold."
- I secretly really want to be a chef.
So, I'm just going
to pick chef. - I've eaten some
of your food. - Just because it
would be fun. - I mean, I think that's-
- Pretty good. - It was really lovely.
I'm going to, I mean, embarrassingly,
just an actor.
I'm sort of very single-minded. I'm very boring.
That's all I've ever wanted.
- [Elena] Okay, and finally,
pick an iconic sci-fi movie:
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Dune, Alien, Blade Runner,
Arrival, Star Wars: A New Hope.
- Alien and Blade Runner.
I'm going to have to go with one of them.
I think probably Blade Runner,
just 'cause I wish I was Harrison Ford.
- I'll go with Alien. Alien's pretty great.
And I do have a confession to make.
I've never actually seen a Star Wars movie
from beginning to end.
- Wha?
- Yeah, I know.
- So you should pick that! - A lot of people are not
going to like that.
I know! - You have to pick that
so you can actually rectify that.
- No, no, it has to be Alien. - No, you do what
you need to do. - Alien is amazing.
Alien's amazing. - Okay.
- I have to go with Alien.
- Blade Runner.
- The Wrath of Khan is an excellent freaking movie.
- You were in Star Trek, so you kind of don't have a choice.
- All right, I'll pick the Wrath of Khan.
Khan!
(noir music)
- I'm Spike Spiegel!
- I'm Jet Black. No wonder I love Jet so much!
- Come on.
- I'm Spike Spiegel.
- This makes sense.
- Spike Spiegel. Well, yeah, that makes sense for me, too.
- Mu, I-
- Are you Spike Spiegel?
- Yeah. - Interesting.
- I want to know what, if there was a Vicious one,
or a Julia one, what that'd be.
- Is that even an option?
- You need therapy. - Is Vicious an option?
- You need therapy, you need help.
You're a damaged human being.
- I am Vicious.
I'm a Gemini, therefore this makes sense, right?
(Daniella laughs)
"Your personality matches Vicious.
You are cunning, ambitious, and fierce.
Like Vicious, you are a natural-born leader
who is constantly trying to prove themselves.
You're someone who wants to forge their own path
and not have to listen to others."
That sounds like a, um-
- Truth.
- That sounds like an optimistic view.
I think there's
a different reading
of the same personality.
- Okay. So, this is me and Mu.
"Your personality matches Spike.
You are adventurous, charismatic, and witty.
Like Spike,
you're someone who loves exploring the world around you.
While you sometimes get into trouble,
you always manage to find a way out of it.
You're very protective of your friends."
Very interesting. - That tracks.
- How long did it take to, like,
come up with the algorithm?
Also, I was kind of bummed that no one was Faye.
What does it take to be Faye? What were the choices?
Was it the potato chips?
- You can't reverse-engineer this.
- What's going on? How do I get Faye?
- Mine says "Your personality matches Jet.
You are compassionate, honest, and trustworthy.
Like Jet, you always try to see the good in people
and you always believe everyone's heart is
in the right place.
While you love adventure,
you also love spending a quiet night in with your friends."
That was fun. - Thanks guys.

- You can check out Cowboy Bebop on Netflix.
- [Alex] Yeah, watch it.
- [Elena] We think it's awesome.
- [Alex] Yeah, exactly. We hope you do, too.
