Afro Samurai

[Knives122]

It was pretty good, I definately got a Samurai Champloo vibe from it as well as Ninja Scroll vibe too.

I'll be watching this until it get's canceled for no reason -_-

supposedly its only 5 episodes long

Why is everyone in that show black? The art and music are pretty good, and the voice acting is alrite as well......but i can't stand that guy who follows afro around. Hes so, well, black, for the lack of a better term (well thats not true, there is a better term, but i wont use it here). I can't stand people who talk like that. And whats the deal with that old guy from the cult. Was he overacting on purpose or did they think it would be kool?

I do like the fact that the main character is always smoking a joint. I guess i'll stick with it a few more eps and see what its like. Hopefully they wont rely on jackson's name or the violence/bloodshed to make the show a success, but actually develop a proper storyline and characters.

Yeah, Just Call it " Afro Champloo "

...i agree as a black person myself black people suck and talk like retards. also im curious as to the better term you know of to discribe black people. i saw Clerks 2 and I hear that Porch monkey works pretty well?

i love the show and i like how there was little down time im hopeing they can keep up the pace over the next few episodes

Toybox released their version... I suspect it should have much better encoding that what's out there:

[NeoBear]

im wondering about the sound on toyboxs release that was my only problum i had to turn my speakers up to here the first one

[Munsu]

Audio is ACC, you need to go to the control panel and adjust the AC3 filter volumes.

is that located under (sounds and audio devices) in control panel i figured it was just recorded at a low volume or something?

[Munsu]

Humm, you're probably using FFDshow audio filter, can't really tell you how to adjust it there. But if you're using Media Player Classic, go to the options and play with the Boost lever under Audio Switcher. Anyways, don't post here any more about this issue, go take your dillemma to the support section.

I think the term would be wannabe gangsta.

Episode 2 released by goat:

Doub't it's good quality, but there you go.

[Knives122]

Another great episode, Teddy Bear Head ended up being his best friend(dir), Master had the #2 the entire time, everyone died, and Ninja Ninja aka the most annoying character ever looks to be an imaginary character to cope with what he did(sorta like his better judgement telling him what he should do.)

Just 1 more ep. left which isn't a big thing seeing how there were only 5 eps...

[Yukimura]

I'm stating to notice things that look a little too familiar throughout this show. Jinno seemed like he was the love child of Aoshi Shinomori and Yukishiro Enishi. And if Knives is right Ninja Ninja would be EXACTLY like Shimichi from Ayakashi Ayashi. While somewhat ripped off, it doesn't mean that Afro's circumstances weren't very intriguing. I'm guessing his master took the headband because he wanted him to give up on revenge and live a happy life with his new friends...that worked out well.

[DarthEnderX]

Looks like nobody talked about this after the end of the show.

I just watched it recently finally.

Really liked it. The action was amazing.

The plot wasn't complex. It kinda reminded me of Tarentino when talking about Kill Bill. It's just a straight, oldschool revenge story.

In fact, with only 5 episodes, the entire series runtime is probably only like, 1:45 once you take out the extra title and credit scenes. It's bascially just one samurai movie cut up into little pieces.

And on that note, I think it succeeded fantastically.

[YaGaMi]

I watched it not too long ago myself, although the animation was great, personally I felt the action was at times way too fast to keep track of. Overall it's an average anime, but not something I'd watch again though.
