Saw the first episode last night and wasn't that impressed. The animation was good, but I didn't like the disconnected feel that was presented. Maybe my expectations were set a bit high this early on, I'll stick with the series for at least the first five or six episodes to get a better opinion.
I like it very much. Animation is as sweet as honey, having the best art style I've seen lately, sorta reminds me of I.G's works, mainly Kill Bill anime part.
Story is slick, you have two great samurais wanting to kill eachother, but they have to get along. Their interactions are funny as hell ("that was a dream").
The humor simply gets to me. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
Just watched the AF-F sub - they've done a nice job on it - explanations at the top of the screen, nice work on the opening / ending animation, and while I don't know enough Japanese to comment on the quality of the translation it certainly felt OK. I'm gonna watch the Bakafish tomorrow to compare the 2.Originally posted by: Budweineken
Have you watched both versions already? I've only watched Bakafish and was wondering which one you thought was better...
As to the anime itself - not sure about this one to be honest, figure I may give it another episode to see how it develops but my initial impressions were that it's not as good as some of the ones that have come out recently. If I'm not enjoying the second episode then I think I'll be giving this one a miss.
I'd say give it a try, but I certainly preferred Bebop to this one - my personal opinion and chances are others in this thread will disagree.
...so was I the only one who really liked when that one guy molested a geisha in the beginning?
Does anyone have the anime version or a full version of the opening theme?

I dont see how anyone can put a comment on how they like cowboy bebop more than this, if you look at it, its just like the first episode on cowboy bebop, if anyone was around to watch them before they all came out.
Bebop didnt give off alot of story, but showed us what he was about to make. try not to compare the whole bebop series to the 1 ep we have so far. If you think about it bebop was at its peak later on, so be patient.
As for the Hip-Hop Into and end. I dislike Hip-Hop/Rap ALOT, but be professional here, that was great to mix those two elements together, new hip-hop with old samurai action, its just something id expect from someone who puts jazz into fistfight/gunfight (bebop).
EDIT: When's the new ep coming out?!?
Samurai Champloo and Cowboy Bebop are completely different shows, and it doesn't make sense to compare a complete series to only one episode of another. Episode 2 will air on Wednesday, be patient until then.
Hopefully more geisha grabbing next wednesday...... bwahahaha..... ok enough of that.
the squirrel is by far the best character.. it freaking flies

Samurai Champloo has been interesting so far. I especially like the "rewind" thing.
i watched this at my friends house,
i liked it except i found some parts weird and somewhat annoying
the rewind/dj scratch thing is a new thing to me so i didnt like that as much, but it was a cool innovation
other than that, omoshiroi desu
Horseshit, BS... it was delayed until next week (this week) due some volleyball game, geeze... champloo to the ppl, fuck volleyball...
The molested geisha is clearly superior to the squirrel even though it grabs second place with it's flying abilities and cute teeth [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]Originally posted by: syllaw

GEISHA MOLESTATION FOR THE PEOPLE

Somewhat off-topic, but since Samurai Champloo airs on Wednesdays in Japan, is it aired the same time as Naruto or later than Naruto?
Umm, I think we already need a new forum for this show. That first episode was sick. If this anime has half a plot it will still be good in my book. I just finished watching, I think I am gonna watch it again!!!
