Samurai Champloo and other anime

For a while there, after watching nothing but anime, I ODed on the stuff: no matter how much you like it, 5 hours a day of anime for weeks will wear you down and I tried a few anime that just didn't appeal.

Let me refer to right here, where I mention you by name and right here. I don't own the icon just to be trendy.

Seriously though, I will always love Jin. So mature and restrained but then he pops out some hilariously thoughtless lines that remind you that he's just 21 and little more than a baby himself.

The last episode will kill you though (in a good way). What he does for Fuu is amazing as you realize how far this character has come from the beginning. And the imagery is in and of itself beautiful in that scene, since he's topless and his hair is down and the wind is blowing. He looks appropriately striking for his culimating moment.

And happily, SC is one of the few anime where none of the main characters die. You hope in the end that maybe he gets to go back to his prostitute.

Mea culpa. That will teach me to ignore anime recs.

But yes, I am definitely watching it this week.

YESSSSS! I was worried about that. I do hope he gets to go back to his hooker (Ok, that episode was just expressly designed to reel me in. Seriously. It was so beautiful and...guuuuh).

Samurai Champloo is such a great anime, I loved watching it. Anyways, I loove Jin too, so many hilarious moments. And concerning the other animes, I usually download anime torrents from http://www.mininova.org they're usually japanese/english sub.

SC is love, baby. And, yes. That is one of the better episodes (and the show itself is bloody fabulous). HAHAH. Welcome to the cult. ;)
