Cowboy Beebop is massively overrated

One Piece is the same tier as the rest of the mainstream bullshit animes out there right along with Bleach, Naruto, and Fairy Tale.

Totoro is actually pretty freaking intense, but, yeah, Kiki is definitely more of a entertaining story.

To address it, Bebop is one of the best anime because of its perfect blending of music characters and action. Music being the defining attribute of the entire series. Every episode is fully choreographed, fight scenes, flying scenes, etc. Jet, Spike, Faye, Edward and Ein are all equally important and to say that the series could have advanced fine enough along without Edward is to completely miss the point of her character. She's the foil to the hardened bounty hunter that Spike and the gang fancy themselves as, but certainly most obvious Spike isn't so much of a bad ass as he is a man on a mission.

If you think Cowboy Bebop is simply "bad" and you try to call it's characterization and plot course "shallow" or non-linear or not very "Story-like" you either need to re-watch the show or everything is just wooshing over your head.

Anime Expo 2012: 160,000 attendees, largest dealers' hall for anime outside of Comiket Japan.
0 one-piece merchandise related booths, 0 one-piece cosplays.

Before you try to say something along the lines that convention peoples' mentalities are different, oh I wish, having counted at least 5000 naruto headbands and every 10th cosplayer being some bleach or Hetalia character [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

There are worse shows, I'll give you that Cowboy Bebop is good yet still extremely overrated. One Piece isn't even 'good' though. Sorry.
