We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.
This is a fiction/fan codex: entries describe an in-universe canon. Our audits check canon and internal consistency — external fact-checking does not apply the way it does on real-subject codexes.
Last full accuracy audit: 2026-08-26 · 30 entries checked · 18 flagged · 33 issues confirmed · 18 corrected · 15 still open
Ein — Ein was discovered by Spike and Jet on the street outside a convenience store while being chased, not inside a laboratory.
Ein — Ein's creation is attributed to a private research facility (Data Dog project) rather than explicitly the Red Dragon Syndicate.
Julia — STATS field incorrectly labels Episode 26 as a 'First Appearance'; her first appearance is solely Episode 10, while Episode 26 is her final appearance.
Julia — DID YOU KNOW claims she appears in only two episodes; she visually appears in three episodes of the original series (Episodes 10, 25, and 26).
Chen — The entry misidentifies the character Vicious as 'Chen', incorrectly attributing the Red Dragon Syndicate Executive and Spike's rival role to a name that does not correspond to this major canon antagonist.
Hopper — The entry incorrectly identifies the subject as 'Hopper' when describing the genetically engineered dog Ein; there is no major character named Hopper in Cowboy Bebop canon.
Ballad of Fallen Angels — The entry incorrectly states that 'Ballad of Fallen Angels' is a two-part arc; canonically, it is a single episode (Episode 5), with the story concluding in Episode 6 ('Jupiter Jazz').
Jellyfish Jam — Episode 12 'Jellyfish Jam' director attribution error: Canon credits Shinichiro Watanabe as episode director, not Toshiyuki Takahashi.
Jellyfish Jam — Title meaning error: No canonical evidence supports a gangster hideout named 'The Jellyfish'; the title is metaphorical and musical.
Wild Horses — The original Japanese air date for 'Wild Horses' was June 24, 1998.
Wild Horses — The legendary racehorse Red Dragon was hidden by former jockey Kaz to protect it from gambling syndicates, rather than being stolen by a gang.
Ganymede Elegy — The entry incorrectly identifies Vicious as the antagonist; he does not appear in 'Ganymede Elegy', where the antagonists are Shizuka and her brother.
Ganymede Elegy — The entry falsely claims Spike confronts his Red Dragon Syndicate past in this episode; that narrative arc occurs in episodes like 'Jupiter Jazz'.
