    Samurai Champloo

    I can't believe a thread for Champloo hasn't sprung up yet.

    Originally posted by ANN
    Mugen is a fierce animal-like warrior with a unique break-dance-inspired fighting style. Jin has a more traditional style but don’t think of this as a weakness because his skills are amazing. The two contrasting samurai warriors are far from friends, yet their separate paths seem to cross anyway. Mugen is wandering aimlessly through the city when he stumbles upon a teahouse where he meets Jin and Fuu (A ditzy waitress, but don't think she doesn't have anything hidden up her sleeves). Fuu convinces them both to come with her in search of a mysterious samurai that smells like sunflowers and their journey begins. This modernized hip-hop tale breaks the barriers of the common, historical, samurai anime.
    Edited for retarded mistakes.

    The show is amazing, regardless of what about 90% of this site will tell you. The action is awesome, the jokes are quite hysterical, and overall, it's a great series.

    I just finished watching episode 23. That has to be the funniest episode yet.

    Aaaand the series has ended.

    I think it ended quite nicely. The last three episodes were like ZOMG.

        Yes yes yes it's an uber bump, but tonight is Samurai Champloo's airing night. It's taking over the spot of FMA for the time being, and it's 45 minutes into the show and I must say this is hella good. 100 Dumplings anyone?

        Edit: They changed Jin's name to Jean it sounded like.....but there were some people being loud because I have cousins over so maybe not. It just ended and I must say I have high hopes for this anime. This was a truly great first episode filled with action and some plot into it, but mostly action. No spoilers for you guys....and if there are then edit them out. Squeek that was a summary off of ANN.

            Champloo was good, but this...this...thing that's on right now...it's awful. I think it's called Metropolis. I don't like it. At all.

              SC has some of the greatest fighting scenes and musoc I've ever seen in an anime. Unfortunately I'm only up to episode 8 so I have a while's to go before I see the very end. But a Capoeira fighting Samurai? How does Spike keep getting this badass roles? I mean the fight scene in the teahouse with Jin and Mugen blew me away. But enough about that.

                HOLY CRAP AWESOME. Just got blown away by the first ep.

                Squeek, if you have the whole thing, I want it. Badly.

                  Hmm, I've had the whole series on my computer for a while.

                  I think I'm gonna finally get around to watching it.

                    I personally do not have the entire series. I frequently clean out old series to be replaced with new series due to spacial issues (who could've thought that 160 gigs was not enough?!).

                    Look around, I'm sure you'll find it.

                      Eh, I guess I'll give the series another chance.

                      edit: I have no idea what was wrong with me the day I first saw the first episode of Samurai Champloo...but I just finished watching it again and I must say, it was pretty kick ass.

                        Sadly, the rest of the series wanes after that first episode, but it's still very good in my opinion.

                        The teahouse fight was uncomparably the best I have ever seen in an anime. And I've seen a lot of anime.

                          I still cant stand the openning theme song...but the series has been really good so far.

                              Sorry, but dont even consider it music. That has to be the worst rapping I have ever heard..no rhythm, no flow. And what is up with the random mashing on the piano torwards the end?
