In the years since its release, critics and reviewers, from the United States in particular, have hailed Cowboy Bebop as a masterpiece and frequently cite it as one of the greatest anime titles of all time.

Additional works called animanga were released, which adapt the animation to manga form.

Dragon Ball Z remains a cultural icon through numerous adaptations, including a more-recent remastered broadcast titled Dragon Ball Z Kai (ドラゴンボール改 Doragon Bōru Kai?, lit. "Dragon Ball Revised").
