Re: Anime you just finished watching

Now a series that I finished last weekend is the director's cut of 'Afro Samuari', a series that was ordered by the cable channel Spike TV at over a million dollars an episode from Studio GONZO. The series has breath taking animation quality, but the cultural context is so wrong, (and so bad!!!) that the series becomes a poorly written comedy, leaving you on the edge of your seat waiting to see how the story can get any worse...

If you want to see how ghetto street culture tries to fit itself into a pink tutu twelve sizes too small, then this is the series that you must see, otherwise, its passable.. 4 out of 10

Afro Samurai - Starring Samuel L. Jackson, Ron Perlman & Kelly Hu
