Afro Samurai (Blu-ray Disc, 2008, Director's Cut; Repriced; Uncut)

Afro Samurai--season 1 is an awesome addition to any anime lovers blu-ray collection. Personally, I didn't get a chance to get into it when it was on Spike TV so I had already made it a point in my mind to get it, but the added bonus came when I learned it would be released on blu-ray (as there are still so few US distributed anime on blu-ray it best to take them where you can get them).

I have to say after watching it I was thoroughly impressed with the visual style and quality of animation. Of course, needless to say having the coolest cat in the world, Samuel L. Jackson, voicing Afro Samurai (as well as the character Ninja-Ninja) and a bangin' hip-hop soundtrack done by The Rza (from Wu-Tang Clan) sure as hell don't hurt either. Afro Samurai is not just some typical cliche search for redemption, let's just be real...it's all about the revengance of son over the murder of his father by a 'man' known only as Justice.

The journey Afro takes is painted in a pretty viscal way--meaning simply put...bloody, very bloody. And though the action is super slick and fast-paced, make no mistake this is not you little brother/sister's Naruto and is strictly for the 'grown' anime fans. It is important to stress that this is the Director's Cut edition which means there could be other things included that wasn't made to show on tv--so definitely no viewing around kids.

All that said if you're looking for a hard-hitting anime title to add to your blu-ray collection this is definitely one to get! I certainly can't wait for a season 2

$8.00 for a brand new full season of anime on blu-ray... Now thats insane,LOL, Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The scenes are so fast and insane that blu-ray is the only one that can deliver the quality needed to get the full effect!!

It was sealed and in perfect condition. It was also a great price for a BLU RAY. I wanted to get the DVD because I played the game and loved it. I'm really starting to get into the anime thing. Definitely getting the next season.

This is Perfect if you like Anime, Kung Fu, RZA and Hip Hop. Everything in one package WOW. Definatly worth the money on blu-ray.

I heard a lot about Afro Samurai and decided to check it out. I was very pleased with the pricing of this Blu-ray dvd and how fast it arrived. I wanted to watch the movie before I played the game to have an idea what was going on. I loved Ninja Scroll and other anime movies so I know I should like Afro.

An amazing animated movie production with lots of action and an incredible story that will baffle anyone's mind. A must have for all who are into anime and animated movies.

Esta chevere el anime, debieron que poner los subtitulos en español para poderlo entender mejor. Me comprare los otros season para verlo por completo.

It's good not great... the quality of the animation comes to live in blu-ray, thats what i really like from it, but the extra features leave you wishing for more.

This was a great movie. I fully enjoyed every aspect of it. If you love anime/manga then this movie is for you.
