Yassin
A new anime serie: Samurai Champloo

The same creators of Cowboy Bebop and damn,i love it!!!!

The action,the story....it's definitely HOT!

There are 7 episodes available...so i downloaded them all and it's been a while since i saw such a FINE anime...well since Cowboy Bebop that is.

Really check it outsmile it's worth it!

FeceMan
Samurai Shampoo, eh? Will it make my hair long and spikey? Possibly change it to an odd color?

Yassin
hahahaha.....naaah,the name is kinda funny...like Cowboy Bebop. But really you got to give a shot...you love itsmile

WindDancer
I was watching the dvd vol 1 and the transfer is terrible! The music sucks and is very censor. I don't know what the hell were they thinking by mixing urban hip-hop and 17th century samurai fights? I like the characters of Samurai Champloo but the translation is awful! Even worse a lame soundtrack.

JLred
Ohh yeah I heard it had bad music.....blah....no expression

Big_Daddy2
lol...some of the soundtrack is orchastrated bits, but all in all it has an urban theme running throughout...it's really quite unique.

If you didn't know, the director for this series is the same guy who did Cowboy Bebop...Shinichiro Watanabe. When I first saw this series (im on Eps 24 now) I was like this totally reminds of Cowboy Bebop...until a friend pointed it out that Shinichiro's directing this one.

Big_Daddy2
The Last Episode came out today (Eps 26)...Episode 25 had a really dramatic ending, but im told Shinichiro did some different for it....Can't wait to get home now.

Crazy88No.1
Samurai Champloo is fantastic, Episode 23# is my favourite episode when they play baseball, I need to see Episode 25 & 26 smile

Big_Daddy2
Let me just say, the ending is not what I had expected...but still great nonetheless...

I wonder if he'll release a movie for this as well?

WindDancer
I been watching more episodes of Samurai Champloo. And I'm starting to like it more. I'm glad they tone down that urban hip-hop soundtrack. It just wasn't appropiate at times. Even worse when you watch you the dubbed (which I really don't) . But I'm starting to enjoyed it more.

JLred
I saw my first episode of Samurai Champloo yesterday on AS.....I liked it especially when he cuts the guys arm off......and ten it has way cool action because you actually see them dodging and hitting...not like DBZ or Teen Titans where all you see is swooshing backgrounds....


The song is allright but i likle it when he rubs the disc and it makes that cool noise mwhen theyre fighting.....

Otaku_Sith
iv'e never heard of it before

TrAnCeDuO
i thought the hip hop bits were part of the actual show. are you trying to tell me that this anime is another victim of licensing?

ZomBiE_HunTER
The fighti8ng looks amazing I love the figting scenes.

JLred
As do I zombiehunter!!!!

Usually on anime you see swooshing backgrounds but on this you see them move and fight and do everything!!!!!!!!!!

ZomBiE_HunTER
It was so much violence which shocked me because I didnt think that was going happen.

JLred
Me too!!

ZomBiE_HunTER
Im planning to buy the dvd and prolly get the umd for my PSP.

JLred
NIce!!

When I buy a PSP and figure out what a UMD is, Ill do the same!!!!

ZomBiE_HunTER
Umd is what the Psp plays.

JLred
specifically?

a game, song, or what?

ZomBiE_HunTER
Games, Videos, Movies, Im not to sure about songs though.

JLred

Haru-Donovan
I saw it on Adult Swim too. I've only saw 2 epsoies but it's pretty cool so far. And it does remind me of Cowboy Bebop a little.

just to let you know the ugly ogrish guy was known as oniwakumaru and the guy in the red is mugen.

JLred

TrAnCeDuO
...at your local manga shop...i mean cmon these days manga and anime isnt that hard to find. hell they sell at my highschool now.

its out there...just gotta look harder...


ANYWAYS, what do you all think will happen in the next episode? will mugen finally kill jin or what?

sailormoon
I watched it for the first time last night! Me likey so far! Do Mugen and Jin not like each other at first or something?

TrAnCeDuO
basically yes. the two want to finish their fight from the first episode but fuu doesnt want them to fight so they can help her find a samurai that smells of samurais.

JLred
I am sorry Master-San........my only possible choice of forgiveness and a restoration of my honor is by killing myself.......hang

SamuraiSquirrel
lol ok that is pretty funny, but if your gonna call me master-san you must also use the real type of "killing urself". hara-kiri.

JLred
I was looking for one.........isn't that the short sword you carry when you lose your honor?

SamuraiSquirrel
lol no hara-kiri means " belly stab"

FullMetalLover1
WOAH! Jlred i am sooo jealous of your siggy!!!

SamuraiSquirrel

JLred

SamuraiSquirrel

Sun Goddess
Ok, about tonight's episode of Samurai Champloo (Gamblers and Gallantry): At the very end when Jin Breaks that girl out of the brothel there is a song that is played in the background during that entire scene, and it sounds HIGHLY familiar. And by familiar I mean, that I've heard that little guitar hook in a song on the radio before, it's a smooth jazz song, and the name of it is on the tip of my tongue. Anyone else know what I'm talking about? I think maybe George Benson made it originally I'm not sure, SOMEBODY HELP! This is so frustrating right now!

FullMetalLover1
i dont know what the song is called but, its about time Jin got some if ya know what i mean.

JLred
Yeah........I half-thought he was a queer.................but I guess not......anyone think Mugen is a pirate?

Yuna33
uh...no?!
what gave you that idea?

JLred
I ahve the magazine Anime Insider and it says Mugen might be a pirate because he knows alot about the sea..........should be a couple more episodes......and clues will be given........

FullMetalLover1
did i sense some jealousy in Fuu? it would have been funny if she showed Mugen her stuff.

Sun Goddess
Now THAT would've been a jaw-dropper! shocking

Zatch
yeah I know.

JLred
Would have been funny indeed........

SamuraiSquirrel
what i wanna know is why jin just sat there and let those guys kick the shit out of him?

Zatch
I know that was odd he is a skilled samurai but he just let them beat his ass.

Sun Goddess
Because he's so noble and refined! love I love that glasses-wearing samurai!

Either that, or he just didn't want to look like a savage killer in front of his girl. confused

Mitsurugy2005
I DONT KNOW WHAT YOU GUY"S ARE TALKING ABOUT....WAHHAHAHA confused

Flame Alchemist
I agree with Sun Godess' first sentence.

SamuraiSquirrel
bull crap even the most sofisticated people dont let some one beat there ass. and i love to fight infront of my girlfriend, she thinks its funny when i split some ones face open.

Flame Alchemist
We'll are you a samurai from Asia???Thats what I thought.

SamuraiSquirrel
no im not a samurai, but i do train in the arts of tai-chi and muay tai boxing, i also train with swords, i cant use a full blade katana because i dont like holding a weapon with two hands. i use my kodachi and wakizashi

Flame Alchemist
Well if your not an Asian samurai then you dont know what Jean was thinking do you?Answer honest.

SamuraiSquirrel
honesty is the best policy and i like to fight, simple as that. honor is a great code, but i like to fight non the less, humiliation is the best thing to do to ur opponent

Flame Alchemist
But Jean doesn't like to fight unless he is forced to,and he makes that pretty obvious.

Sun Goddess
It's usually the super strong ones that could kill with a single strike, who are the least likely to fight. Anyone else notice that? I think it has something to do with their honor code. As a matter of fact, I'm more than certain it does.

"There is no honor in destroying what is already weak, but to weaken something that was once deemed strong would be considered prevailing over ones own inner weaknesses."

I'd tell you where I got that from, but then I'd have to kill ya! wink

Flame Alchemist
No one wants you to kill them so you'll have to keep it a secret

ZomBiE_HunTER
Im not trying to be an ass but its Jin not Jean.

Flame Alchemist
Oh.Thanx

ZomBiE_HunTER
No prob.

I think he wanted to co0me back to the place to meet the girl again.

Flame Alchemist

Sun Goddess
Whoa, hey now! Peace be still boys. angel I think he was talking to Zombie Hunter anyway, more than likely he got confused by his signature pic...
