Samurai Champloo is so underrated. Jaw-dropping action and unorthodox blend of history and music contained therein.
With three protagonists: the vagrant swordsman Mugen, the rogue samurai Jinn, and the tea-shop waitress Fuu. This unlikely and volatile trio begin a road journey through post-shogunate Japan (ca. 1780), brought together by circumstances best seen to be believed.
"Champloo" means mixed-up or stir-fry, and that's what this series is: a stylish blend of old school values and situations, meshed with more modern sensibilities, fighting styles, and visual design.
Champloo is many things: a mature drama, an action series, an uproariously funny comedy and a visual feast. You will not be disappointed, despite how radically mind blowing it is.
Just watch it.
