You realize moot and Snacks are possibly the biggest weeaboos on the Internets? Plus, the official venue is at Otakon, a convention with a name that's a play on the Japanese word for weeaboo (not that I'd ever even remotely consider going there). Also, technically speaking, the Org began as a weeaboo site. :smash:Quote:

Only one I ever watched, let alone enjoyed, for any period of time was Cowboy Bebop.
Try Samurai Champloo. Same animators and style, hip hop theme as opposed to jazz. It's extremely well done.Quote:

Just the same lame action flick IMO. Compare to the likes of Samurai Champloo it's like watching Random Sitcom On Lifetime vs Scrubs. The latter got style while the former's just an exercise in mediocrity.Quote:

P.S. For crying out loud Ichigo, School Days is the very last thing I'd want anyone to watch, anime fan or no. Why would anyone watch a show about a scumbag guy banging all the girls in the entire cast and the girls all falling over him in mountains of angst is beyond me. All I ever gathered from its fans is that they wanted to see blood spilling from all the drama.
The whole show is made up of either :drama3: or :girlslap: and ends with :titanic: , according to the spoilers at least.
I'm not exactly soap opera-intolerant but...

I'm going to be the prejudiced bigot here and say that you don't understand a thing, here. I haven't seen anything about Samurai Champloo besides a game, and it looked crappy (lacking any semblance of style, unlike Ninja Ninja), so you got to be wrong. Besides Samuel L. Jackson (hamburgers!), afros, and the RZA, you have awesome fights (the teddy bear thing in the second to last fight was borderline, however). What more could you want?
It's the progression of the show that makes it interesting, to me at least, the twists etc etc. If you don't watch it that's fine with me, but then again the thread was never made for someone who wasn't interested in it in the first place.
You do realize 99% of anime games suck reaaal bad right? Think games based on movies in the US. I pity the fools - I mean, fanbois - who seem to be buying into this little Japanese commercialism galore en mass. :sweatdrop:
Afro Samurai got cool fights, I agree. But so is Samurai Champloo. What makes the latter superior is that it got more than just cool fights; it got fun characters with more depth than an average Naruto ninja, a story to tell (in a distracted, roundabout way), a sense of humor, an adventurous spirit, and really good music. And I said the last one as a certified rap-hating bigot. :laugh4:
Edit: Ichigo, I'm a big fan of anime. I still don't see why anyone needs to watch School Days though! I mean, seriously, it's not like this is Neon Genesis Evangelion where you at least have to watch at least once in your life to call yourself an anime fan.
Besides, your topic says "anime," then your post says School Days. I protest against this misleading trap! That show is nothing like typical "anime" style (ala Shakugan no Shana) except may be the generic moe character designs.

0i, Afro Samurai has five episodes. Samurai Champloo probably has whole seasons. As far as characterization goes I'd say Afro Samurai does a pretty darned good job (Afro vis-à-vis the girl and the teddy bear dude) given the limited room it had. Plus, it's not like it didn't have a story to tell either. This wasn't no blatant Naruto copy complete with the soullessness of that (really crappy) series, you know.
Also, as you may have noticed, my post wasn't entirely serious. I've never seen Samurai Champloo and don't plan to. All I know is that Afro Samurai was short but sweet and deserves honors for that.
That was just a suggestion to watch it. I enjoyed it, but I rather enjoy drama it's interesting to me.
Obviously my trap has worked mwhahaha ~;)
In before Admiral Ackbar
Whoa whoa whoa, this thread got WAY out of control here.
Some people have some very big chips on their shoulders, hope it doesn't cause excessive leaning there folks. Maybe instead of saying that everything, like 99% of anime out there is garbage, why not talk about stuff that we enjoy, snobs and elitists need not apply.
Anyway, some other series I have enjoyed in the past:
Noir
Cowboy Bebop
Samurai Champloo
Reign: The Conqueror
Dragonball Z - bite me, some of it is good
Inuyasha - see above
Berserk
Bleach
Ghost in the Shell
Hellsing
Love Hina
(ok, so I'm a sucker for those harem-style ones, shoot me already)
Some that I've watched and am indifferent, don't know what to think, or it started ok but got real wierd, or all of the above:
Scrapped Princess
Initial D
FLCL - too wierd for me
VanDread
School Days - 0_o
Shuffle - WOW, same vein as School Days
Tenjou Tenge
Nor am I. I just like playing the pretentious angry fanboi role. It's not like Samurai Champloo changed my life or anything (Fragony did, though, I think). :2thumbsup:Quote:

Read my post again, friend. I said anime games, like the 1257th bugged Gundam something or the 535th Naruto fighting game, not anime. I sincerely doubt anyone would dispute me on this point.Quote:

I haven't seen this, but its source material is damn good.
The Legend of Condor Hero
Figured this would happen.....
Gentlemen,
Let us all be Frontroomish, please.
:sunny:
:wreck: The SUN!!! Not the evil Sun and it's evil rays tanning my pale skin. Evil! Evil! I don't want Vitamin K. You know how many hours of watching adult swim it took for me to lose my tan in preparation of winter. I hate being sunny...I want to crawl back into my couch and listen to emo music.:furious3:
Back to topic...anyone want to watch an anime band???
Beck Mongolian Chop Squad
Either that or watch skin tight clothing on anime/manga girls.
Burst Angel or Witchblade
I need to improve my anime girl drawing skills if I want to make my own manga loosely based on the Eleventh Century:book: Back to youtube
Now there's someone with good taste. ~DQuote:

The music is good (and not J-pop good, more like rock music-good); the characters are real rather than stylized anime stereotypes; that big concert episode is beyond awesome; and the Engrish is actually comprehensible in English (!!!) and altogether hilarious.
How many times have you seen some guy playing Blues in anime?
You guys do know that Samurai Champloo was made by the same people that did Cowboy Beebop right??
Fortunately, Ryuske's left hand was fine.:laugh4: :laugh4: The song Slip Out was pretty good too (sound a bit like Oasis and that's a good thing).Quote:
