"Asians are better"? When 1 race considers itself better then others, war & genocide tend to occur...dummy. besides USA is #1 and we will bomb u commi bastards back to the pre-stone age.
"Anime" is just a stupid buzzword that English speaking audiences adapted to mean Japanese animation when in Japanese it's just an abbreviation of the word "animation", but regardless, this is animated by GONZO a Japanese studio of quite some note (NHK ni Youkoso, Last Exile, FMP! et cetera) and based off of a dojin manga by Takashi Okazaki, and it aired in Japan on Fuji Television. It's Japanese. Get over it.
anime is a genre of animation dictated by style not location
avatar is an anime boondocks is an anime afro samurai is an anime, they may be american anime but anime none the less.
also why do they let racist redneck degenerates get a hold of computers? keep your racism to your selves! as a person of color i dont hate white people so why are you stuck in the 50s man? or should i say massa
avatar is definatly NOT anime, its created in the US and has a typical american scirpt/plot, same goes for the awful teen titans but Afro samurai was created by tje japanese studio Gonzo and is therefore anime even if the script is american influenced
If you have an open mind that's not constrained by the reality of true history, then I imagine you'll enjoy this nice piece of work; From the sweet top-notch animation, comic relief(Ninja Ninja), to watching a character facing unbelievable odds, you shoul nuff gonna love this shit.
Well, it's not an anime at all, and just because it is not from Japan. It's kind'a strange but that's an only criterion for a real anime. So, this is just an animation inspired by an anime. It is the same as the Avatar which is beeing made in America as well. Anyway, animation is very nice and stylized, good story and good action scenes. Worth to check it out. :)
why is this not considered anime? it's made by GONZO an anime studio who also made popular series like "Welcome to NHK". The casting is american. I'm assuming this is drawn by japanese artists and made in japan - except for audio. I'd like to hear a japanese dub of this though.
This series is awsome, dont knock it just cuz there is a black guy as the main charcter u rednecks...The only reason I dont like it cuz the 1st season has 5 episodes,but hey the 2nd season might be better and longer
all figthing and no story is what i am amsumming. Thsi cant be calle danime it was made in america. So it would be a chartoon,lol. so dont play the japs by calling this grabage anime.
what has the world come to? The world has come to full of dumbasses like you and even if they made an anime with a black person in it, theres nothing you can say or do. Obviously if you make money doing something productive like this, GO FOR IT! Go fuck a horse and jump off a bridge homo.
I'm not a racist and BTW I am black. I'm just saying how shows make money and I also said how its cool how theres a black samurai. Maybe I said it wrong but I'm not a racist. Obviously the one who is a racist is hypremetalsonic.
the written word is a powerful thing becareful on how u use it thnk about it Sam jackson my have said the same thing there wasn't no black sumurai so he put it out there remenber on bondocks the blind sumurai is were this all came from!
What the hell are you talking about? If you think I'm against black people, your wrong on so many levels because I'm black too. Maybe you should go to the comment section of this video. Maybe you should think BEFORE you write comments to anyone. I have no absoulute time to write to ignorent people PLEASE. I'M JUST DEFENDING MY RACE AND SHOW DO MAKE MONEY. Do us all a favor and don't breed.
You sad, sad, lonely, and sad person. Don't you have something better to do than be a damn racist on this website? This show is awesome; don't be knocking it because of skin color.
hmm it has a plot used for many other animes *takes revenge for his father*. this looks really intersting and my homeboy told me it was pretty good. he said i shouldnt watch it because it'd be to violent...just cause i'm a girl doesnt mean i dont like to watch people torn to shreds. bring on the violence! O.o yars now i must go watch the anime *hope it wont be a spin off of champloo though that kicked ass*
Much like the works of Quentin Tarantino, sometimes a story is purposely style over substance, not to make an interesting feature, just one that's thrilling to look at. Sometimes this fails. Sometimes this succeeds. From the looks of it, Afro Samurai may be the latter.
Unique...right. It's a story about some guy taking revenge for his father. Yes very unique...
If you're talking about the animation style it's basically a more expensive (bling, bling) version of what has already been done in Samurai Champloo. Maybe with a dash of Ninja Scroll added in for flavour.
This show is totally vanilla. It's very nicely animated vanilla, but vanilla never the less.
From trying to watch the first episode I've learned something. I really hate it when americans try to voice act in anime. Jackson sounds ok, but the rest is just horrible.
Really awesome animation though. Probably the best Gonzo has ever done. I just wish they could have made something good with it.
o sweeet...:D i dont know about the voice... it sounded kinda strange but WOW... it might be a copy of champloo but thats a good thing... champloo got it right... the animatio nin this looks amazing...:D:D
to tel the truth...western ppl dont have the experience to do good dub(except for comedy) ....n this show is definity not going main stream....its another copy of samurai shamploo or watever..anyway u heard the curses in the end? Even in live action, the scripts gonna suk.
If a black samurai is trained, he wont be speaking in curse..its gonna humaniliate western dub for a long ass time
what are you talking about they took Japanese shit and put it in their show, in one of their episodes you can actually see a copy of Jin from samurai champloo, and how is it ripped, its a totally different character
omg there black people in there it not suppose to black people in anime only azn people who look like white people ex: yellow hair, white skin, and blue eye well... u get the point o.o
An Anime Afro Samurai voiced by Samuel L Jackson and songs produced by RZA....the only thing I don't like is his fro, he's got a crazy marge simpson thing going on...
