blood and bad language so far!
The violent five-part adventure Afro Samurai marks both the increasing
confluence of American and Japanese pop culture and the shift in Japanese
depictions of African-Americans. The popularity of hip-hop in Japan has led to
more positive images of blacks, including Takashi Okazaki's original manga. The
"Director's Cut" contains an additional 15 minutes of footage, and is
even gorier than the broadcast version on Spike TV. As a boy, Afro Samurai saw
his father beheaded by the maniacal Justice. The murderer sought an ancient
headband that marks the wearer as the #1 warrior in the world. As an adult, Afro
seeks only revenge, cutting down anyone who blocks his path to Justice. Afro
Samurai depicts a oddly anachronistic world that infuses cell phones,
cigarette lighters, and cyber technology into traditional Japanese culture. The
elongated character designs recall Peter Chung's Aeon Flux, and much of
the series is rendered in moody grays, accented by gobbets of scarlet blood.
Afro is such a taciturn figure, most of the dialogue goes to his motor-mouth
comrade Ninja Ninja. This big budget production features an eclectic score by
Wu-Tang Clan co-founder RZA and an A-list vocal cast that includes Samuel L.
Jackson and Ron Perlman. But for all its elaborate production values and
over-the-top fights, Afro Samurai suffers from a weakness at its core:
Afro is so monosyllabic and cold-blooded, he's not very interesting. His
inevitable duel-to-the-death with Justice lacks the emotional punch of Spike's
face-off against Vicious in Cowboy Bebop or Kenshin's one-on-one with
Shishio in Rurouni Kenshin. This extremely violent series is not for the
faint of stomach. (Rated TV MA, suitable for ages 17 and older: graphic
violence, profanity, sexual activity, grotesque imagery, nudity, risqué humor,
alcohol and tobacco use) --Charles Solomon Afro Samurai (voiced by Academy Award® nominated Samuel L. Jackson) is an epic tale of a black samurai's hunt for Justice (voiced by Ron Perlman: Hellboy, Alien Resurrection ) who murdered his father. With music score by The RZA ( Kill Bill , Wu Tang Clan) Afro Samurai blends traditional Japanese culture, funky technology and hip hop to create a brutally fresh entertainment experience.

May 23, 2007 - When we first heard that Samuel L. Jackson was going to be lending his voice to a new samurai based hip hop anime we were very excited. Now after seeing the show on SPIKE TV and again in this new extended Director's Cut, we can tell you that this version of the show is how it was meant to be seen. In our review, we mentioned that Afro Samurai (Director's Cut) "feels more complete with the additional fifteen minutes and the elongated ending". We enjoy the film despite its flaws. Afro Samurai Director's Cut edition of Afro Samurai is a 2-disc set – 125 minutes - awesome packaging! May 22, 2007 found at hdvd.ign.com - On January 4th, 2007, SPIKE TV brought a new and bold animated show to its network. Taking a dare to back a five episode anime mini-series, in which each episode would cost about a million dollars, Afro Samurai would have to work hard to prove that it was worth the amount of money put into the venture. Fortunately for SPIKE this show is gorgeous, with an amazing soundtrack and some of the best voice acting that we have heard from an animated program in some time.The show follows the Afro Samurai, a cold stoic killer, on his quest to avenge his father's death. Accompanying Afro on this quest is the obnoxious loud mouth Ninja Ninja - who as it seems is Afro's only friend. Along Afro's journey we find a cast of characters that help him as well as plot the demise of the warrior. Searching for Justice, the man who killed his father and the man holding the number one headband, Afro must defeat every contender that comes to take his number two head band. With a basic story of revenge, you can expect that there is a lot of (gory) action to be found in this story. Sign
