as far as i know, Anime-Xtreme only do DVD rips, but since this anime was licensed long ago (i've read that in some thread that Itachi_ made here few months ago), perhaps they're just declaring that now, and are waiting for the DVD to come out..

anyway, as usual, i'll let it run for a month or so, and once 4 eps are out, i'll get them and burn them... the only way for a space limited person like myself to live...

Sun, 06-13-2004, 09:40 AM
the sieries samurai 7 is based on a 1960s movie masterpiece called the 7 samurai and in the show there are seven samurai that decide to protect a villiage from bandits but one of the samurai is actually a villiger just protending to be samurai. in the sieries that character is the self proclamed robot "kikuchiyo".
so there is the answer as best as I can give read that in a magazine

DraGunZer0
Sun, 06-13-2004, 09:53 AM
ExTREm-San if you watched the promo they state that the series takes place in the enar future (not the past, so obviously its another anime robot theme). And I'm still wondering if this anime will be like the game 7 Samurai... haven't played the game yet either... maybe I should rent it to see if its the same when the anime gets subbed

Elfo
Sun, 06-13-2004, 10:07 AM
Damn ADV... now it'll be very difficult to know when a version subbed of any anime will be released...
I was waiting for seven samurai for a long time... I think this show gonna be amazing

www.samurai-seven.com, has the promo there, and it's stated that ANBU&A-Keep will fansub samurai 7 as a joint project i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif, still, why are they in the future fighting robots, wtf, mecha samurai anime, geeze, what's next

Sun, 06-13-2004, 11:06 AM
Don't u people realize that anime has always had crazy mixes of genres, for example breakdancin samurai in samurai champloo, gunsliinging nuns in chrno crusade, mind controlled fighting barbie dolls in angelic layer, ass kicking school girl in air master and ikkitousen, jazzy futuristic space cowboys in cowboy bepop, giant medieval robots and dragons in escaflowne, vampire on the good side killing other vampires in hellsing, cross dressing teacher that loves his students in i my me strawberry eggs, alien that becomes a teacher and marries her 18 y/o student onegai teacher just to name a few. So why the hell would you be surprised with a samurai mecha anime. Just think of it as another Samurai Troopers (Ronin Warriors.)
You never know, this anime might turn out real good with that futuristic feel and old school samurai action (like Shinobi and Stryder with futuristic ninja action.)

Personally I have high hopes for this anime.

ExTREm-San
Sun, 06-13-2004, 11:42 AM
DraGunZer0: Yes i watched the promo and understood that the serie will take place in the future. But still i think that samurai series should take place in some of the era's wars.

Btw, what is a joint project ?

But the point is that samurai 7 is based off of a classic movie. With that said you'd think they would be a bit more traditional or something.

Bahh anything doing with sword fighting im up for

:EDIT: Also a joint project is when 2 subbing groups work together (in this case ANBU and A-Keep)

Munsu
Sun, 06-13-2004, 12:03 PM
Well i dont mind it having a mecha theme with a focus on swords... it will be something different from what i'm watching now...

If it is nearly as good as Escaflowne, one of my favorite because of the focus on swords instead of laser beams, then i wont be dissapointed

itachi_
Sun, 06-13-2004, 12:05 PM
Why not do as Rurouni Kenshin OVA1 - Reminisence, A really good anime, and that's no mecha or future, it's traditional and very good, it's like the highest ranked anime in the world

Munsu

Come one man... be more open minded.... not everything has to be about traditional Japan and traditional Japanese History... we all know you have an addiction to it, but it doesnt mean that everything that doesnt follow those lines is going to be bad

How are they going to pay for this series? Anime News Network.com said it cost $300 per episode to produce this title.

Munsu
Sun, 06-13-2004, 02:45 PM
Well i think it shows in PPV... so it should get plenty with that if it becomes popular enough, although i dont know how PPV works in Japan, probably like everywhere else

Not everything has to be traditonal. But when you compare it to the movie so much, like they did in the promo, a lot of people got confused.

Munsu
Sun, 06-13-2004, 04:03 PM
Well it was mainly targeted to Itachi_ who is very biased towards samurai stuff...

But I'm one of those who got surprised with the Mecha theme, no doubt about it, but I'm not going to start saying that it sucks without even watching an episode...

All I'm saying is that watch the series or a couple of episodes before saying that it sucks... just give it a chance...

But if you go to with a mind set of its going to suck even before you start watching the series then you are never going to like it because your mind will be clouded with negative thoughts...

So go and watch it with an open mind, and if you dont like it then, then make sure feelings known, but give it a chance at least

I have to say i was very excited when I heard they were doing a anime based on kursagawa's (sp?) awesome film the seven samurai

after watching the trailer I am a bit dissapointed that they are doing a futuristic mecha theme.

Yet only time will tell.

Amazing graphics, so far I really enjoy this anime. I dont wanna ruin anything for anyone yet so I wont go into details but the graphics for this anime is superb. I think most of the stuff is CG animated (besides characters.) Also the anime is revolving more around sword play in a futuristic environment than mech fights right now (kinda like Vicious in Cowboy Bepop.) I want more (I also want this subbed soon ^_^)

Mon, 06-14-2004, 12:36 AM
theres not much robot fights yet... only fight so far is the beginning of ep 1 it was a man vs mech instead of mech vs mech... actually man vs a lot of mechs and ships...

The show seems interesting, I wasn't expecting any mecha in it

obake
Tue, 06-15-2004, 01:45 AM
Hmmm, well, I was pretty underwhelmed with the first episode. I have no problem with genre-blending, so long as it makes sense. But when you have a traditional Japanese village next to an enormous, industrial metropolis, it just doesn't make sense. Why would half of the world be modern while the other half looks like something 200 years ago?

But the show did get me thinking... wouldn't an anime based on the Onimusha series be just insanely badass?

DraGunZer0
Tue, 06-15-2004, 04:02 AM
Onimusha 3 pwned (the rest is good too), and yes it would be badass (we need something like ninja scroll again!)

Gods_Son
Tue, 06-15-2004, 05:03 AM
Just finished watching episode 2. That $300,000 that goes into each episode is really going to waste, the CG is pretty much random and useless most of the time. The mecha idea still seems lame to me, but I'll keep watching to see how it turn out.

Shadow-wolf

yeah i'm really likin this series already who cares if there is mecha involved it's something unique unlike most samurai series, the first two eps weren't extroardinary or anything but they weren't bad either i hope more action is involved in the coming eps i liked the fight they had in ep 2 and the preview for ep 3 looked sweet

Horseshit, this is the anime of 2004, What a beautiful intro&outro, and the animation is indeed perfect... no doubt it costed $300.000 each ep.. due all donations to kurosawa from all the years.. Wow, I'm stunned... Compare this kind of animation/drawings with the one the naruto studio use. What a difference, well this is on my top3 for sure... I've only watched the first eps but I know that this anime will become more and more intresting, over&out

Wed, 06-16-2004, 03:28 AM
one thing that pisses me off about animes is that they make guys look like girls. sooooooo fucking lame.

this anime should've just been about those crazy samurai robots fighting (just like the ones in the beginning). the characters are kinda weak.

Everon
Wed, 06-16-2004, 12:00 PM
So is this more like the video game -- with the mecha and all. Or does it actually try to have a storyline?

DraGunZer0
Wed, 06-16-2004, 12:55 PM
I dont think this has anything to do with the video game now... because i remember the game being an action adventure with one main character (a guy that uses dual swords) so... i dunno... probably just rent the game for sword action fun.

I just watched the first two eps and thought they were great, animation wise, still waiting for more plot development but looks real promising, also the dude that looks like a lady had me really confused at first, Ithought he was a she oh well. I think the japanese like to bend genders in thier anime and confuse people.

pretty good so far
the first episode was okay, but the second episode got me into it more

damn that guy that looked like a girl is such a fruitcake, reminds me of orochimaru, but much more weaker and not as cool

I'll watch this series because the movie it's based on is SO GOOD! I'm not really into "classic" movies or anything like that, but Seven Samurai is an EXCELLENT movie. It's worth seeing even though it's black and white.

I wonder how much like the movie characters the anime samurai will be?

I think the movie is rated as one of the greatest movie of all time(not only in japan but around the wordl)



The priestess girl look nice.

My only comment is that the samurai guy(the one that save the girl) don't look that cool. If you look at Vash, Kakashi and other anime character they have this cool look. The samurai guy do not appeal to me that much.

PS: This is only my opinion.

kilzo
Sun, 06-27-2004, 08:53 PM
well in the movie he wasnt too appealing either..., i wanna see if they do the one "not-samurai guy" as good as he is, becuase he was my favorite character in that movie.

Saw first ep so far. Left no image in my mind, even though I love samurais. Robots VS samurais? Hmm...

Hopefully things will pick up after the first one.

ep 3-4 has a good fighting scene.

I like the part when the robot, with a bandana on his face, thought Kambei is gonna get whack.

looks like no episode 5 yet- for all the sceptics about merdging Samurai, and Mech genre ' Just watch it- this is good work. animation is really superb. writing boasts dynamic characters, and relatively engageing story line. definately gets 1.5 thumbs up.

summer projection: this is a fansub everyones going to want this summer.

i dled when everyone else was but i didn't watch it. i thought about mech and samurai and i was wishywashy. but reading everyone else's post, i got really interested. i just finished epi 1 and i know i'm going to like it. like the 1st or 2nd minute of it...YAH!!! the part that DraGunZer0 mentioned, man v. mech. i was like "OH YEAH!!" he's like this ant compared to that ship...so...DAMN!!! totally into it now. must watch more ~

*****time lapsed********

so i finally finish watching the first 4 episodes. SOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOD! that fight at the end of the 4th episode...blew my mind! and the guy who catches arrows...when he dodges...i thought about the matrix.

Just me or the animation just take a day off? the actions and movements scenes looks like something from Lupin III. not the whole thing just the part around where the new guy took on the samurai with no money. the sound is off as well?? the voiceing looks like its something a kid would do.

Edit: @ mut@t@: yeah that looked pretty bad, for a second there, i was wondering why i saw 7 released and 8 not yet, i had a feeling like that was some kind of joke? but i guess not i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif

Mon, 08-16-2004, 12:45 AM
Yeah, Mut@t@, the animation in episode 7 was just really bad in parts. It is as if another team took over, maybe a "B" team. Hopefully, that means they took extra care for episode 8, and episode 8 will be really awesome. I can't wait.

SasukesGirL
Mon, 08-16-2004, 01:29 AM
wth!?? is this how they treat a remake of a classic?? the animation was a joke, i havent seen such horrible animation in ages. This makes the sometimes terrible animation in naruto look 10x better! I couldnt even tell what some people were doing in some scenes and the way they move look so unnatural.

I think it was "bring your children to work" day or something and they let their 5 year old kids draw that shit out.

Yes, the animation of episode 7 is weird. Is that intended? I mean the artist may tried to use different art style to illustrate the lavish city. But I don't really like that kind of art style. I hope episode 8 back to its "normal" style. What do you think about it?

yah, i think she said that because she didn't want him to go.

the art didn't look good only during the dancing...and also the fighting scene between the new dude and the poor samurai. it sure isn't one of those epi they spend $300,000 or whatever amount it was suppose to be.

do girls always give baths to other girls in japan??

I definately like the new opening.. in fact I love the series in general, though there's no avoiding that episode 7's animation sucked. I'm relieved 8 was back up to par.

The reason why girls are often seen together in the bath in anime is that nudity is not as much of a big deal in Japan as it is here, and the bath is very often shared between family members and friends of the same gender. Especially when the bath is so large that multiple people can share it rather than waste time waiting for people. With privacy so rare, since living quarters are so crowded, it can be the one place in the house girls can have a chance to gossip without being overheard. There's nothing sexual about it, it's just the accepted norm.

Eurasian
Thu, 08-19-2004, 01:24 AM
i see i see. well, i didn't see anything sexual about that scene in epi 7. and yes, it is quite rare here...so glad u explained it.

I saw it in the first second of the opening cause the old opening was boring compared to this new one.

bitwar
Fri, 08-20-2004, 10:58 AM
The new opening is really cool. The old one just used footage from the episodes and put color filters over them. This one looks much better, and actually goes through the 7 samurai with names (though they aren't translated). The animation in 7 was really bad in the first half. It scared me a lot because the animation in this series had been so good so far, and i didn't think that GONZO would have that issue. But after the halfway point (the thing with the mist and stuff) it got better, back up to par. I really hope they don't do that again. But the story is moving along nicely with enough action and plot and such to keep the series flowing, unlike Kaze no Yojimbo (the last Kurosawa remake). The first 5 episodes (all i've seen) of Kaze just dragged along SO s l o w l y... Samurai 7 is MUCH better. One of my favorite new series. Now to watch episode 8 since I have a day off from work.

Nice eps. Good fighting scenes, some comedy, some character development... And now they have all seven.

Katsushiro was particularly cute in the second ep, although that was balanced out by some of the most awful crossdressing I've seen. And Kyuzo's hair is way too fluffy....

But the character and background design continue to be detailed and unique, so I can't complain.

Yeah, there were some great action scenes during these past 2 episodes. It looks like things will heat up from here, and the true 7 samurais are finally ready for action. I wonder if the villagers will actually betray them? I bet you anything, one of the villagers will, and the whole village will have to pay for it. I think the girl will fall for the blonde guy, and the young guy will just be heart broken (sorry, I can't remember their names). Seems like this series will be great, and the music is awesome, too.

Just ask for it at your local video rental place. It's a popular movie, so someone's bound to have it. You can even watch it with your family. It has some violence, but a really strong story, and I think your parents would like it too.

As for the series, I think it's loosely based on the movie in the same way Star Wars ep 1 is based on another of Kurosawa's films, The Fortress. The director copies the basic plot and some of the themes and character personalities, but then he uses these elements in a completely different way. None of the adventures in the town or subplot with the merchant prince chasing after the priestess are in the movie. And of course the movie is set in real-life feudal Japan, not some sci-fi version of it.

I don't think seeing the movie will spoil you for the series because they are too different, but there are some nods to the movie in the series you might not get if you haven't seen it. Also the series was made assuming the audience was familiar with the movie. Seven Samurai is classic, and I would definately reccomend you not miss it.

Most of Akira Kurosawa's classics are out on DVD. Yojimbo (the bodyguard) and Rashomon are really good too. Yojimbo is a good action flick and inspired "A Fistful of Dollars" (one of the classic Westerns). Rashomon was more artsy, but still pretty cool.

What are you saying, then? Just because it's black and white it's boring? Geez, talk about a dumb comment. And what's wrong with the Lunar subs? They're perfectly fine, too. So easy to criticise, isn't it?

the quality is different to compared to 9 and 10 thats probally why the file size changed

Munsu

i think they had bad raws because there is really no difference in quality between Lunar and keep-anbu... just that keep-anbu has better encoders...

jimmymasaki
Tue, 09-14-2004, 08:58 AM
haha. not to burst the bubble of random thoughts but i thought this thread was for samurai 7???
neway, what i don't get is heihachi... i mean i reckon he's the coolest... but like, what's the deal with him chucking schizo's and the whole issue with trust? i thought he was pretty trusting and made up his mind pretty quickly about joining the samurais ... but maybe that was due to the bribery.... ???? AND at outset, we see that he's full on friendly and stuff...
btw, i think LUNAR are a little lacking with their subbing.. don't get me wrong it's not bad, just especially with the farmers.. they make 'em out as if they're total idiots who can't talk proper.. i reckon colloquial language would be more appropriate... they only talk different to the samurais (or 'proper' japanese) is coz of their dialect... i dunno.
someone correct me or something.

[first post! how exciting]

Munsu
Tue, 09-14-2004, 09:24 AM
Na' you are right about the Lunar subbing... they have never been that accurate on subbing... I only get Lunar releases when they are the only ones releasing... else i go for someone else....

animefreak
Tue, 09-14-2004, 10:57 AM
thanks for agreeing with me Budweineken. Although i seem lunar sub better one before but not samurai 7...maybe is a new guy who join lunar fansub it.

Eurasian
Tue, 09-14-2004, 03:06 PM
heihachi is trusting. since that dude betrayed them, he feels like that trust is gone and treats that person like an enemy. but kambei believes the good in everybody. that's so touching.

anyways, i really like katsushiro now. KILL KILL KILL!!

animefreak
Tue, 09-14-2004, 06:10 PM
ok...the story begining to make more sense now. I thaught only the seven samurai gotta fight the bandit but now i realize the whole village is going to fight which make more sense since there is no way 7 samurai take a whole armies on it own.

Mae
Tue, 09-14-2004, 07:25 PM
Yeah, I liked the way they rallied the villagers. Heihachi's true personality has turned out to be a lot different from the friendly guy they first introduced. He seems the most bloodthirsty of the bunch.

I thought Katsushiro's first real battle was done well. He was pretty clumsy during the fight and shocked at the outcome. I didn't really understand Kanbei's response, first backhanding him and then fixing up his sword. Mix your messages much? But it seems pretty clear who Kirara will choose now. "I will go down with you."

Munsu
Tue, 09-14-2004, 07:26 PM
I think he hit him beacause he was in shocked and he wanted him to snap out of it... or something along those lines...

Or maybe he just wanted him to toughen up... his weak mind will interfere with their mission

Eurasian
Tue, 09-14-2004, 09:04 PM
HAHAHA! i like that lil quote mae. "I will go down with you." HAHAHA! that's true. u just can't imagine kirara w/ kyuzo.

Aeon
Tue, 09-14-2004, 10:51 PM
I thought he hit him cause his sword wasnt sharp making the kill painful and messy instead of clean.

empT3
Tue, 09-14-2004, 11:58 PM
I'm pretty sure he slapped him because he neglected maintinence on his sword. Not taking care of your sword is the equivlant of just pretending to be a samurai, not taking the whole thing seriously. I would take it as a fairly large insult if I taught someone a serious martial arts technique and they practiced it a few times and could only do it half-assed when I asked them to perform it later (back-story: I used to teach martial arts)
Another thing, I don't think Heihachi is bloodthirsty at all, he's just used to being on a battlefield where you kill traitors because they can't be trusted.

Mut
Wed, 09-15-2004, 12:45 AM
all the samurai are badass except that green haired troll. katsushiahdiahodhuoesffro or whatever, he sucks. the most badass is kyuzo obviously.

thundrakkon
Wed, 09-15-2004, 01:05 AM
Yes, I totally agree that Kanbei slapped Katsushiro because he neglected maintenance on his sword. However, I also think that Kanbei did it to snap Katsushiro out of his daze.

I guess there won't be a three-way love story after all. i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

Overall, the animation was pretty good. It's just that some of the villagers, the extra ladies, were drawn pretty awful. I guess that was intentional.

The story is shaping up pretty well. Oh, btw, who was in the shadows in the forest? Was it a bandit, one of the samurais, or someone we don't know about yet?

jimmymasaki
Wed, 09-15-2004, 04:24 AM
oh, i dont say that lunar subbing is inaccurate.. it's just lacking. it gets the main jist... well, either way i don't really care too much coz the subbed files are so much smaller than RAWS. i don't reckon heihachi's bloodthirsty either... the issue of trust still gets me.. i get the whole traitor thing and kill those who betray us.. just that he's trying to save the farmers and... ah doesn't matter i guess.. it'll all come to light if i wait a little (anime always answers my questions slong as i wait awhile)
i agree that katsushiro's (i think that's his name.... hate him so much) first kill was very well done.. like, there's no way a person could be fine or not clumsy with their first skill... so i applaud the scriptwriters for that.
man as if kirara was EVER gonna get with kyuzo!! and as if kyuzo would even think of getting with her (for some reason i don't think he thinks about a d&m relationship)... woulda been interesting i must admit thou...

ah.. Gynophobia. i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

We love all the girls that actually do post here. It definitely adds more spice than just the normal testosterone that we get everyday here.

jimmymasaki, the idea of killing the farmer he is supposed to be saving, well, I think it has to do with the concept of saving the village, not the individual. He felt that farmer betrayed the village and should be punished accordingly. Besides, later on, they mentioned that the most feared aspect of war is not the enemy, but a traitor amongst your comrades. He must have dealt with a traitor before.

yeah i kinda figured it would be something like in the past someone he really trusted betrayed him big time... hence why i'm just gonna wait until it comes to light.... [unless the writers don't think it's necessary for character development... unlike some anime... *coughcough* naruto *coughcough*]
mind you i dont think character development is a bad thing... i quite like it.. it's just soooooooooooooo time consuming.
neways, katsushiro pisses me off... i don't even know why kanbei agreed to take him on board... unless i missed the few seconds before which explained why he accepted him...
someone correct me. ta

I hope you are not serious, with your IRC gang making up these rules. Girls are necessary, period. Well, unless you prefer male companionship instead. i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif

Katsushiro is necessary in this series. He represents how a young Samurai becomes a true Samurai. In some ways, it might reflect how Kanbei became who he is right now. It definitely adds character to the storyline.

I see... You must be very popular with the girls then, Muts. Wow, you must be such a manly badass behind that computer of yours. Have you ever considered what it is like to go out in the real world? Or even consider facing someone in real life with the comments you make?

My character avatar does have something in common: we both care and protect those that are important to us. He has heart, which is apparently lacking in some people.

Chauvinism is not something you should be proud of.

As for Samurai 7, the next episode appears to be start of the great fight. It looks to be quite intense from this point forward, so I'll be looking forward to it.

yeah, i'm a pretty badass behind my comp and i'm also a bigger badass when i'm not behind it. and don't bring up this 'you have no life, go outside and see the real world' crap, that's just dumb. also, never ever have i needed to act differently on the internet, this is how i am in real life. why do people automatically assume that EVERYONE acts different on the internet? it's just completely ignorant to think like that. anyway, call me an ass and what not, but you don't know well so you're in no position to say the stupid crap you do. btw, you're sharp as a marble seeing how you can't understand a joke. it just amazing how you're able to get offended so easily by simple jokes. and i know you're a sandy little vagina because you flipped out at the joke in the "funny stories" thread. you gotta lighten up or you're not gonna make it in the REAL WORLD. the real world isn't all peachy, crude jokes are said and they are laughed at, not lectured on like you have.

I can see how you can be so successful in life, Muts, with that attitude of yours and your sharp tongue. You remind me of someone I used to know who thinks he is all that online and talks smack off it. Well, he eventually served a few years of jail time and was deported out of the country.

As I mentioned before, you must be really "popular" with the gals. i/expressions/rolleye.gif

Btw, I am living in the real world, and surviving quite successfully. i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif

Jokes are good, when they are in good taste. I admit it was funny, but at the same time, I also admit that the joke was in bad taste, if you were able to understand what I was trying to say.

You have the right to act however you want to act. That is your freedom. Just realize that every time you have something offensive to say, everyone else has the right to voice their opinion as well.

On topic again, does anyone know who those guys in the shadows of the forest were? Were they the bandits or someone completely different?

you really do say dumb things. you're telling me an example of someone that i don't know and putting it off as if i can go to jail and get deported or in other words suffer the consequences of having such attitude. but i'm not him so it doesn't matter to me. and why do you keep bringing up popularity with girls? far as i know, you could be stereotypical loser who has never even held a girls hand before, but i'm not judging you on that cuz i don't know that about you so don't judge me if you don't know me either. if you got more to say, come on to #gotwoot, it's always better to be in a real conversation than posting on a forum waiting for a reply

Sure, Muts. I'll re-install mIRC and try to remember how to use it once I get home. Just for you. i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif

As for the reference to my acquaintance, it is just an example of a person with an offensive attitude not ending out too well in life. It does not necessary mean you'll end up like him, but just one person who did. Your attitude just reminds me of him.

As for the girls comment, it was because of your "no girls" comment. It wasn't too nice.

As for my personal life, I'll leave it at that... personal... Nothing can be proved by anything I say anyway.

animefreak, I also remembered when that old farmer was talking to some other farmers in the forest, there was still that shadowy figure, so I don't think its him. I wonder who it could be?

i always thought it was the traitor farmer guy in the shadows... the shadowy figure when the farmers were in the forest talking, i assumed it was katsushiro... but then again that doesnt make sense does it???
so just coz he wanted to protect kirara from the arrow he got recruited??? that's soooo.. argh! oh well. kanbei's too nice... but he's a good swordsman..

He not only wanted to protect Kirara, but the fact that he was willing to give up his life to protect. That was the key. He had never been in a life or death situation before, so Kanbei did not want someone without the scent of blood with him.
