Cowboy Bebop Whump - Tumblr Posts
Alright I made an intro post a while ago and then never posted anything lmao so let’s try this again. Hi! I’m MJ (you can call me Jay) and I use any pronouns. I’m a minor so I won’t post anything NSFW but here are some things about me that you’ll probably see on my blog :)
Fandoms I’m interested in: cowboy bebop (my fav), mha, samurai champloo, demon slayer, fmab, megalobox, devilman crybaby, opm, invincible, marvel, DC, and star wars
Tropes I like: defiant whumpee, combat injuries, found family, hero x villain, hiding injuries, fainting, broken limbs/ribs, stab wounds, etc
Tropes I’m not a fan of: sickfics, death, pet whump, animal whump, gaslighting/manipulation, etc
What I do irl: I love to skate, draw, write, and listen to music. I am also a (mostly) practiced boxer so I’d be happy to provide any information I can about writing realistic hand-to-hand combat whump :)
So yeah I can’t wait to stop lurking and actually dive into this wonderful community and get to know you guys :)
Here are my 3 favorite whumpy animated shows that have a 10/10 plot for all my other picky whumpers out there
Cowboy bebop- my favorite show. released in the 90s, cowboy bebop is an incredibly cool and fun story about a scrappy handful of bounty hunters in space with a mind-blowing underlying plot. the mc very often ends up with gunshot wounds, broken ribs, stab wounds, and even a full body cast at one point.
Samurai champloo- very similar to cowboy bebop and from the same director. the whump is a little less frequent but the quality of it as well as the entertaining plot make up for it. LOTS of sword whump, some emotional whump, and a happy ending. (my banner is a scene from this show)
Invincible- dear god is this show gory. if you’re a fan of gruesome hurt with little comfort, I highly recommend it. the mc is your typical hero, complete with witty quips and a desire to succeed. but his whole persona is based on being able to take a beating, often landing him with broken bones, stab wounds, holes blown through his body, and enough trauma and daddy issues to last a lifetime
