Appearance
Edward, or “Ed,” is often seen with her wild, fiery red hair, large round goggles perched atop her head, and an infectious grin that reflects her quirky and unpredictable personality. Her attire is casual and unconventional, consisting of an oversized white crop top and black shorts, often giving her the appearance of a carefree child. Ed’s lanky, youthful frame, paired with her energetic and erratic movements, adds to her overall eccentric and playful look. She is usually barefoot, further highlighting her carefree and whimsical nature.
With goggles on and a spark of creativity in his eyes, Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivruski IV gears up for another wild invention, ready to unleash his quirky genius on the next big idea.
Personality
Ed is one of the most peculiar and eccentric members of the Bebop crew. With a unique, almost chaotic, sense of humor, she frequently displays erratic behavior, such as talking to herself, rolling around the ship, and even walking on her hands. Ed is a free spirit, embodying childlike innocence and curiosity, which often leaves her fellow crew members perplexed by her antics. Despite her seemingly absent-minded and aloof nature, Ed is a brilliant hacker, easily outsmarting sophisticated security systems and cracking complex codes with ease.
Background and Story
Ed, born Françoise Appledelhi, hails from Earth, where she spent much of her early life as a nomadic hacker. She adopted the name Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivruski IV because it sounded “cool,” a decision that mirrors her whimsical and unpredictable nature. Her father, Mr. Appledelhi, is a cartographer who seems just as eccentric as his daughter, and their relationship is marked by a sense of distance due to their respective lifestyles.
Ed first encounters the crew of the Bebop during a bounty hunt when they are searching for a hacker responsible for tampering with a satellite. Ed quickly proves herself to be that hacker, but instead of posing a threat, she helps the crew accomplish their mission. After this event, Ed essentially invites herself aboard the Bebop, much to the confusion of Spike, Jet, and Faye. Despite their initial reluctance, Ed quickly becomes an invaluable member of the crew due to her exceptional hacking skills.
Ed’s background is somewhat ambiguous, and much of her past remains a mystery throughout the series. What is clear, however, is that she has spent much of her life wandering, using her extraordinary hacking abilities to survive. Her carefree attitude towards life likely stems from her childhood experiences, but this also contributes to her detachment from any one place or person, always maintaining an air of independence.
Key Rivalries and Relationships
Spike Spiegel
Spike finds Ed’s eccentricity baffling, often interacting with her in a bemused or indifferent manner. Despite his initial confusion and annoyance at her antics, Spike acknowledges her usefulness as a hacker.
Jet Black
Jet acts like a reluctant father figure to Ed, tolerating her wild behavior while occasionally showing concern for her well-being. Ed, in turn, often latches onto Jet in her playful manner, sometimes calling him “Jet-sssaan.”
Faye Valentine
Faye’s relationship with Ed is a mix of frustration and fondness. Faye is often exasperated by Ed’s chaotic behavior, yet she grows to care for her in a sisterly, albeit begrudging, way.
Fighting Skills and Abilities
Faye is highly skilled in marksmanship and hand-to-hand combat, often using her feminine charm to distract her enemies before taking them down. She’s also an expert pilot, flying her ship, the Red Tail, with remarkable agility. Despite her tendency to rely on manipulation, Faye is more than capable of holding her own in a fight, whether in space combat or close-quarters confrontations.
