Samurai Champloo Created 17 years ago2007-10-28 21:10:58 UTC by Spike

Ok, fisrt of all I know there are lots of anime haters, I was one of them and still I'm with those childshit series like Naruto etc that they show on TV, but that serie has nothing to do with those crappy ones.

Samurai Champloo is a anime serie directed by Shinichiro Watanabe who has done masterpieces like Cowboy Bebop (my favourite one) and 2 chapters of Animatrix. Samurai Champloo is another of his masterpieces, it's just awesome. His series use to have around 26 chapters, there aren't heavy series like DBZ (it's shit too), or One Piece with more then 300 chapters (lol what a waste of time).

Samurai Champloo start with a fight between a ronin (samurai with no lord) called Jin, and a criminal/expirate called Mugen. Then they get arrested for killing some people and destroying a bar, so they got condemned to death, but a girl saves them in exchange of they have to go and help her to find a mysterious samurai "that smells like sunflowers".

All serie is about the travel and the shocking ending of the travel, while you watch the chapters you see how characters are and things about them past all mixed with intense action, awesome fights, and 10/10 visuals and plot.

The original soundtrack is hip-hop, non gangsta american rap, I mean sweet hip hop with some electronic songs that fits perfectly with the anime.

If you want to see it you can download it from internet or emule subed and dubed in lots of languages. I can say spanish and japanese (original) are very well dubed because you feel (dont know how to tell it) adult appearance (I mean not child voices). I don't know how the other dubs are.

Sorry for my english, I've done my best.

Here are some youtube fan music videos of the serie, and the Intro.

I stopped reading.

I stopped reading after the second time you said "serie", when I realized it wasn't a typo.

lolwut? i didn't understand a word of that...

I have never had any interest in these shows. Akira is the only piece of anime that I've thought was any good. I've seen a bunch of this stuff, so I know from personal experience that I dislike the genre as a whole. The corny animation, the trying-too-hard-to-be-deep storylines, the lame diologue, the meaningless symbolism, poor or nonexistent translations, and the utterly ridiculous facial expressions/grunts that are used in place of actual words have all helped to turn me away from it. It obviously makes sense to the Japanese, but Japanese I am not.

Hah, let's not forget the up-skirt shots they all seem to insert every 10 minutes.

Yeah, gotta love 'em. :

hhehehe anime...I like. But adult anime only. Anothe?! Borringggg........

Oh the humanity! Oh, the humanity!

massive truck of....?

Yes please.

bang bang?

Yes, I understand you cause I hate this kind of anime too. Clearly you are talking about child shit animes, the commercial ones.

I prefer classy anime, like the work of Studio Ghibli. Wonderfully drawn and animated and just beautiful films.

Champloo i a phenomenal show! And Akira is one of my all-time favorite movies!

I've seen akira damn near 30 times, and i've seen the first 6 episodes of Champloo on cartoon network about a year and a half back , BUT then my like kicked in and i haven't turned on CN since

(except to watch the Star-wars robot-chicken episode)

I watched all of Champloo, not by choice, but i had a roommate that liked the show.

He no longer lives with us, and I own his room.

Download the show dude, u won't regret, and the end of the serie is in just one word: awesome.

on cartoon network

oh lawd. xD

Anime is generally shit. Akira was a decent film for several reasons, but honestly guys.. there is so much better entertainment to be found from real people.

they got condemned to death, but a girl saves them in exchange of they have to go and help her to find a mysterious samurai "that smells like sunflowers"

Anime plots are so ridiculous it makes me itchy. It's like they're ALL from the Generic Japanese Plot Book of Shit. Reminds me of Final fantasy, except it's not fun because you don't get to play anything, you just watch cartoons do ridiculous things. Shit.

But yeah, Ghibli's stuff is gud.

give me an example... mmmmmmmmmm half life? ??

You can't criticize without experience on anime, I can, and yes, anime in general sucks, but there are some series made for non childs that are great, you can spend time watching those animes, or watching a film, or playing HL or HL mods, or going play football or masturbating with hot videos on internet.

Well u choose the way u want to spend your time, I'm just saying that watching this anime is not a waste of time.

:>

spikes got a point
live your life however you want to
we cant change your mind (this isnt going out to anyone in particular)
but we can still make fun of you for it

Asshole thread.

Asshole thread.

Talking about things you don't know anything about is typical american?

Oh I think I'm right (generalizing), I don't like this country, let's bomb it. Don't like this person, let's buy a gun and kill him. Don't like anime, lets piss off this thread.

Asshole.

uh wtf?

Tip: Never use "bomb" and "america" in the same sentence online, we will find you, and do horrible things to you. Also, threaten to kill Luke in PM plz.

I'm scared

Oh boy anime haters. Gotta love them.

Samurai Champloo has got to be one of my top 5 animes. The soundtrack is something else I tell you. I use the songs in most of my vids.

The anime although short has quite a bit of humour and is quite serious. Not that BIG EYES and Japanese eechi shit that perverts enjoy.

I recommend this to those who like anime and like a good story.

And this: http://es.youtube.com/watch?v=7oTRmOBSLSU - HAH how many sides does a triangle have? 4..

Wow. Those people were retards. I'm surprised they survived past infancy. Also that is a good representation of Americans as a whole. Not even joking. Seriously. You couldn't pull that off in any other country. Impossible.

Brilliant.

I'm just saying that watching this anime is not a waste of time.

For you.

I've seen these "non-child" anime shows before, and none of them have interested me. I'm not simply referring to the mass-produced crap that you see on WB Kids, I'm talking about EVERY PIECE OF ANIME I've seen so far, with the sole exception of Akira, which in my opinion is an amazing movie.

Also, Habboi, you've got to know what you're doing by posting a link to that (very old) video in this thread. And Blitzkrieg, I wouldn't normally say something like this, but you are a huge faggot for saying that it's a good representation of Americans as a whole. Good job perpetuating ridiculous stereotypes.

Wow. I forgot to put a [sarcasm] [/sarcasm] for srry. That makes me a faggot?

I was wanting to say that if you like or are interested on anime, that's not a wasting of time. I'm just defending of people who is posting just to piss off about a thing they don't know anything about. I think they'll feel superior or something .

What the fuck did I do?

Fucking foreigner, just because you don't know the language doesn't mean you can interpret it wrong.

Asshole thread, as in it's full of assholes, such as ZL for posting the obnoxiously big picture.

Yah, I said lets piss on this thread. Wait! No I didn't!

GTFO the internet. If you want me to be an asshole, I can be, as I'm sure everyone here knows that.

I stopped reading.

Well and for this too. sorry for the sencond reply u did but it's clearly understandable as MY thread sucks.

Things I've learned from this thread:

1: I'm not the only person who dislikes anime in general, and prefers more original artistic styles.
2: Srry cannot detect satire.
3: I'm a faggot
4: The internet can be a very, very stupid place.

MY thread sucks

Oh.

Oh.

Well now I know I was right.

You're the one who said it.

And let's not generalize Americans. I wouldn't shoot someone or bomb a country... OK, at least one of those isn't true.

for that link
that's one huge steaming pile of bullshit
they went around and did that with hundreds of people and just picked the dumbest ones to 'glorify'

i hate stupid people

i love my country

You got that the fuck right, Luke. America FTW.

[fail]

Seriously.
