I'm behind the times on this, of course.
This is the follow-up series from the creator of Cowboy Bebop. It's trying to do a similar thing with melding genres, historical periods, and music. When it first started, I was annoyed by it.
By the end of disc 1, I was hooked.
Recommended for you Bebop fans. It's not quite as good (at least not yet), but worth sticking through the (possible) initial distaste.
Disc 2 tonight. And maybe some Ninja Scroll.
I'm watching Bulletproof Monk again, which itself is a masterpiece.

Major bump to get over - instead of jazz, this time the music, and often the editing, is hip hop. Yes, in feudal Japan.
I was pumping this series on CH a while back when I was watching Fansubs of Samurai Champloo. Great series. Ends beautifully. Fansub torrents are still available.

I liked it, too.
i think the champloo works better if you follow with the ninja chonditioner rinse.

That got a giggle out of me.
Good work.
