Kofi

Kofi only makes a small appearance in the popular Cowboy Bebop series, but she is still worth a mention mentioned. She is a tall dark-skinned black woman with an awesome afro haircut, and she appears for the first time in the 17th episode of the show.

Bob Makihara

Bob from Tenjhe Tenge is a tall guy who wears dreads, who is eerily similar to the late musician Bob Marley if he were an anime character that is.
