I saw a preview of this at the Ottawa International Animation Festival last autumn. It was really cool. Super violent.

The animation was amazing. Sam Jackson seems to be a perfect fit for the leading role. I'm looking forward to this. Hopefully it will have legs and live up to the first impression it gave.
Saweeeeet.

Because he's a B.A.M.F.

I've been known to go to see movies based soley on the fact that Samuel Jackson is in them and he is most likely going to be cursing someone out.

I've had an Afrosamrai figure keeping watch over my desk for nearly two years. I hope they do the character justice!

Hey, based on what the website says, that is 1/2000. Keep on to that thing. Collectable.

Kid robot has been sold out of them for a good while now. I'd hold onto that figure for dear lie, especially if the films go well.

BTW, this is an adult animation...I believe it's gonna be on Spike.

Lots of sex. Lots of violence. Lots of sex and violence together.

That's how the guy from Spike TV set up the clip. It won't be for everyone, that's for sure.

He's cool. He came with 4 arms I think, with varying grips for different poses.

Also has 6 individual cigarettes and an Afro-Samrai ring.

I know nothing about any of this... I just wanna say that that Iron Man helmet is frickin' SAH-WEEEEEEEEEEEET! :eek:

But having been enlightened here, it does look like it could be a fun show. :D

The stylization is very attractive, it is similiar to the look of the anime Samurai Champloo. And the story somewhat resembles the story of the manga Blade of the Immortal which is awesome may I add. I cannot wait for the release of this series. And I agree with Dmonk the site is awesome, just bookmarked it.

i am really digging the style of the graphics they have on that site.. i perticularly like the "scroll" function theyve included... innovative way of maybe having e-comics... the design of that samurai with the teddy bear hat looks cool too! im gona keep my eyes out for this....
