Episode 1:
http://www.spiketv.com/mods/afro/player/index.jhtml

Animations sick, stories a lil cliche but w/e its still good...

[exitspeed]

I wanna see an episode. The art looks great, and Mr. Sam Jackson doing the voice, how can it suck?!?!?!

[ManoNegra]

I'll check it out but not holding my breath since american-wannabe-anime usually sucks.

[jeeper_x]

so damn bloody!!!....im sure u american kids would like it....

[Munch]

I rather liked the episode and think its a pretty cool show, but really im not a fan of the animation style. Its just too busy and its hard to tell whats going on with all the swooshies everywhere and everything. Ide like it more if the animation was just a bit simpler.

[mooboy]

Just downloaded it... lets see how it goes.

[theicecreamdan]

I Liked it.

"its nothing personal, just revenge."

[theronin]

i thought it was cool.

[ManoNegra]

Voice acting blows animation looks aight. Will check out rest when I free up some machine power.

btw. Yes, oxytail in tomatillo sauce is the bomb.

[mrmephistopheles]

I thought this was about Afro Ninja: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4559e9-BgS8&mode=related&search=

[fromxtor]

ROFL :D ^^ I thought so too.

[Unholy S14]

dude Samuel Jackson blows, his voice doesnt fit in at all.

[mooboy]

Yeah I dunno if I cared for the voices... but I liked the animation. Reminded me of old school Ninja Scroll.

I dont really like the animation style either.. its too "tryin to be badass" ,,, which is why american anime sucks.. but its different.. i try to be open minded to new stuff so I will see how it goes.. I dont have cable tv so i cant watch the episodes.

[SimpleS14]

Damn that was one violent show lol

The anime reminds me of some of the short movies from Animatrix. I can't see this lasting that many episodes....I'm thinking 15 or even up to 30.

HyperTek - I'm pretty sure if the show is popular you can get episodes via torrent.

[JewGal]

The hell with torrents, you can download it 480p from the Spike's website as listed in the 1st post.

I liked it.

I'm talking about future episodes.....they might not be hosted like the first one on Spike's website.

[CKAMC]

it was OK... I give it a 6 out of 10... might be better if under an influence... but that usually goes for many things

[swift_style]

Afro Samurai is cool

[jrmiller84]

"its nothing personal, just revenge."

Yeah, he has a Sasuke complex if any of you guys watch that show too...

"I'm an avenger!"

The shows awesome so far albeit predictable.

[SimpleSexy180]

it was pretty kool.

theme song:

samurai champloo intro > afro samurai intro

[jrmiller84]

samurai champloo intro > afro samurai intro

Is it just me or do most anime's have awesome theme songs? Check out Escaflownes, FMA, Naruto, or Rurouni Kenshin.

[ManoNegra]

Champloo >>>>> Afro (really...? I mean, really?) Samurai

[Wykydtron]

Samurai Jack is so 2001 XD!

Reminds me of The Boondocks + serious After Effects Visuals.

Also, it reminds me of one of those Animatrix mini movies, w00t!

edit:

*walks into bar" "Lemonaid" XD aahahahahahaa!!!!

[~4N~]

Haha, Samuel L. Jackson is in everything.

[NemeGuero]

Haha, Samuel L. Jackson is in everything.

'Cuz he's the mutha fuckin' MAN!

EDIT: in the first 5 mins.. how does his head get chopped off with a gun?? WTF.. I mean.. its not a sharp gun or anything.

[ManoNegra]

Tangent: speaking of Sammy J., anyone seen the new trailer for 'Black Snake Moan'? He's crazy in it and a thin Christina Ricci running around in panties ain't too bad either:

Black Snake Moan (quicktime goodness) (http://www.movie-list.net/exclusive/black-snake-moan.mov)

I still need to get my full Samurai Jack on (lol, I made a funny!), only seen a few eps but loved them.

[domo dorigato]

[ManoNegra]

^ Word. Movie probably going to suck (February is the official movie dumpster month) but I've had a thing for Christina Ricci for a while now. Glad to see her looking good again.
