As with his previous accomplishment, Watanabe blends different genres and attitudes into a cohesive whole. SAMURAI CHAMPLOO mixes a maturity rarely found in anime with a historical Japanese setting and an anachronistic hip-hop soundtrack and atmosphere. Fuu is a flaky waitress at a teahouse where a sword fight breaks out between Mugen, a wild and animalistic warrior, and Jin, a mannered and composed Ronin. In exchange for saving them from execution, Fuu demands they accompany her on a journey to find "a samurai who smells of sunflowers." This box set contains the entire stylish and genre-bending series, including seven volumes and 26 episodes in all. [More]
