UN Spacy Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 Wow. I NEVER thought I'd see an episode that centered around tagging. Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 in Champloo you need to expect the unexpected how long is it until we see fuu's boobies Quote
eriku Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 in Champloo you need to expect the unexpected how long is it until we see fuu's boobies I think Fuu's boobies are somewhat unexpected, so I'll expect to see them before the series is over. Quote

Did you guys really NEED to go there? So distasteful sometimes. Quote
polidread Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 yeah, considering that a pair of steamed dumplings is more tasteful than her little boobies. Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted January 28, 2005 Posted January 28, 2005 (edited) well...i do have a picture of fuu...but it's hentai...doesn't really show her boobies at all...just umm her bare back and the curve of her boobies...no nips besides...i said the seein' fuu's boobies part as a joke no need to take what i said so seriously Edited January 28, 2005 by Dat Pinche Haro!

That was the point and nothing being taken seriously. I'd hope you'd joke that your mother's dumplings are as tasteful.

Graham Posted January 31, 2005 Posted January 31, 2005 Just started watching this as a lot of people seem to think its pretty good, but to be honest so far I'm pretty underwhelmed. I'm up to episode 5 so far and I'm just left feeling that this is a pretty average (i.e. forgettable) action comedy anime, with nothing really outstanding about it. What's the big deal, I don't get it? Graham Quote
Wes Posted January 31, 2005 Posted January 31, 2005 I just finished the fansub, and all I can say is YES!!! I had always hoped for a "Mugen Learns to Read" episode, and it's great! Quote

BoBe-Patt Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 so is the second dvd out yet? I'm itchin to get it already! Quote

I'm up to episode 5 so far and I'm just left feeling that this is a pretty average (i.e. forgettable) action comedy anime, with nothing really outstanding about it. What's the big deal, I don't get it? Graham I thought that, until I saw episode 14. That and I love Edo culture anyway. It certainly not up to Cowboy Bebop style of awesomeness, but it's getting there. I hope they do a movie later. I doubt they will get round to it in the near future, beacuse Watanabe is going into live-action, apparently... Quote
Mr March Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 I'm going to rent the first DVD and give it a shot. This looks like it could be fun. This thread keeps popping up to remind me all the time Quote
Smiley424 Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 so is the second dvd out yet? I'm itchin to get it already! I heard the next DVD isn't going to be until like March of this year. Quote
JELEINEN Posted February 1, 2005 Posted February 1, 2005 I think Champloo's biggest weakness is that it lacks a strong plot thread between the episodes. The sunflower samurai search is very weak and is alll but forgotten in most of the episodes. I think the show would've been a lot better had it been less episodic. Quote
UN Spacy Posted February 8, 2005 Posted February 8, 2005 AF-F just released Episode 19. MOMO-SAN! Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted February 8, 2005 Posted February 8, 2005 I already have episode 20...but it's by Shinsen-Subs...these guys did a decent job with Beck...hopefully they do a good job with Champloo Quote
UN Spacy Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 I love how fast AF-F is releasing these episodes. #20 is out. Quote
Mr March Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 I watched the first 8 episodes of Samurai Champloo last weekend. I've taken a while to put my thoughts together on the series, since it's both similar and different to anime I've previously seen. Overall, the series is good entertainment, but it has so far failed inspire me. I find myself enjoying Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex much more, particularly the subtext of that series. Samurai Champloo seems to remind me much more of a serialized, north american television show if it was done by a talented japanese anime director. Not that there's anything wrong with episodic, north american television (yeah, I know I'm trying to be way more diplomatic than I really feel), but it's just not what I'm really looking for. I enjoy the different facets of Samurai Champloo, especially the entertaining characters, the use of hip hop music merged with a Feudal japanese period. I certainly can't complain about the animation, which is easily on a level with GITS: SAC and Cowboy Bebop. The strengths of the series just don't seem enough to make up for a lack of power within the series' storytelling. I would be willing to see more Samurai Champloo and enjoy the series for it's moderate entertainment value, but I can already tell as I'm writing this, I'm just not going to put in as much effort to see further episodes as I did to view the first eight.

Fort Max Posted February 12, 2005 Posted February 12, 2005 There was an article on this series in the 3rd issue of the UK's first mainstream anime/asian culture magazine. Hows that for permeation. I'd like to see this but I'm not down with downloading licensed series, I'll wait a while and see if it gets announced for a UK release since a few more recent Geneon titles are finding their way over.

Dat Pinche Haro! Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 i saw 21 up on bakaupdates yesterday...i was just too lazy to bump the thread Quote
EXO Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 I saw 21 last weekend. I didnt know there was a thread. I actually saw the entire thing this weekend. After I saw the first eps. I couldn't stop. I don't really watch a lot of anime (compared to the people here) so to me this was pretty good. It reminds me a lot of my favorite manga Blade of the Immortal. The chick with the guitar is a lot like Makie in the manga. Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 Shinsen-Subsi sup to episode 23... but it was just another mess around episode...not really furthering the story a long...looks like samurai champloo is turning into macross zero in the sense that the story was slow to take off...hopefully the next 3 episodes are some kinda great finale in the making instead of more mess arounds Quote
do not disturb Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 QQ? are there any samurai champloo toys or figures that are out yet? or ging to come out? Quote
UN Spacy Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 QQ?are there any samurai champloo toys or figures that are out yet? or ging to come out? I sure hope so b/c I'd buy em in a second (IF they're nicely made with real clothing and tons of articulation). Quote

I sure hope so b/c I'd buy em in a second (IF they're nicely made with real clothing and tons of articulation). i never even heard of this anime until like 2 days ago when one of my friends busted out some DVD's. first thing to come to mind was "where the heck do they sell these?". so i guess that means theres nothing official then? nobody has a license or anything? i hope some company(a good one) picks it up.

I just imagined Medicom incorporating Champloo into their 1/6 scale Stylish Collection, like the Lupin figures. Quote

They did make the Spike figure for cowboy bebop, so they can make these figures too! Quote
