Samurai Champloo is a masterpiece when compared to the drivel that has been released in the past 5 years. The unique style, humor and fusion of hip hop makes it one of the wonders of anime to watch.

There are plenty of anime masterpieces that have come out in the past few years but it has been overshadowed by Naruto, Bleach and other marketable Pokemon type anime. :p

I would hardly call it a masterpiece it was good but not in the vault of awesomeness good.

My review of Appleseed Ex Machina:

I just watched this 1080p and the facial expressions and overall animation quality are THE best when it comes to 100% CGI animation. Unlike Appleseed, Ex Machina's quality is consistent.The plot is the normal action flick fanfare and being directed by John Woo ensures plenty of fantastic fights. However, I do have to dock off 2 points for dramatized voice acting and occasional cheesy cliches.

8/10; an exceptional example of how far CGI has come.

Is it still on the new filler?

btw what ep does the new filler start on? The last ep of Bleach I've seen was when Aizen and his crew were fighting against the shinigami on Earth.

I'm kinda interested in the filler because I've heard so many people say it's good :p

Spice and Wolf II ended. :(

Horo was too cute...

I can't wait to get the 1080p version of it when it hits the scene. Watching Spice and Wolf Season 1 in HD was amazing! I hope the story came to a good close. It was only one of the few anime series that had a consistently mature feel to it.

Hi,

- I found this week's Naruto fantastic. I don't remember reading this in the manga, well I remember the content was scattered in various chapters but this complete "Jiraia Gaiden" idea is great ! Or am I wrong and just totally forgot about that ? :s

Nope. I just found that post hilarious because it's considered an enhancement to add an anime character or voice actor to sell a product. What's even funnier is that it makes the Windows 7 box look like a terrible cartoon package rather than a professional operating system.

Oh, Japan...

      I hate religious supremacist genocidal maniacs. How antisemitic of you to imply that's what all Jews are like. Still no links I see. I guess when you're a zionists, backing your claims with proof doesn't matter. bEliEvE mE oR yOuRe hItLeR.

      Moto G Stylus has better specs and a stylus. Search for the specs to see if they they're important to you.

      Funny how people who don't use OneDrive feel the need to give their opinion.
