So, to finish this review... this manga is a good side project of its anime. If you didn't understand it already, this is not an adaptation, but rather an expansion. Don't expect an ending for this manga. The story of Samurai Champloo is one, and it begins and ends in the anime. The chapters of the manga could be intercalated with the anime ones, given the episodic nature of both creations. So, if you liked the anime, you should try this one. Not as ambitious as the main product, but pretty solid by itself. Samurai Champloo ( サムライチャンプルー Samurai Chanpurū ?) is a Japanese animated television series consisting of twenty-six episodes. It was broadcast in Japan from May 20, 2004, through March 19, 2005, on the television network, Fuji TV. Samurai Champloo was created and directed by Shinichirō Watanabe, whose previous work, Cowboy Bebop, earned him renown in the anime and Japanese television communities. [1] The show was produced by studio Manglobe. Macdonald, Christopher (January 22, 2004). "Samurai Champloo Manga". Anime News Network. Archived from the original on December 7, 2021 .

Also directed by Shinichiro Watanabe, if you're looking for something with that mishmash of excellently animated action sequences and scenarios ranging from sincere and serious to absolutely hilarious, than Samurai Champloo should be next in your radar.

Bebop was a trend-setting marriage of anime traditions and Tarantino-inspired cultural hodgepodge — it could be said that Pulp Fiction influenced Cowboy Bebop as much as Cowboy Bebop influenced Kill Bill — and Samurai Champloo continues in this meta style, taking it even further. a b Macdonald, Christopher (August 20, 2004).

A partir de ahí, manga y anime toman rumbos diferentes, pero ambos con la misma onda y espíritu. En lo que el manga se queda un poco corto es que, si bien divertidas y llenas de acción, sus tramas suelen ser un poco más simples que las de su contraparte animada. Parafraseando a una extinta revista de mi país “la historia (de Samurai Champloo) toca temas espinosos como la prostitución, la falsificación, la corrupción, la prostitución, la persecución de los cristianos, la mafia, la homosexualidad y la prostitución”. La versión de papel solo roza algunos de estos tópicos, como los inmigrantes o los mafiosos. Tampoco hay muchos de los elementos modernos que hicieron celebre a SC: acá no hay baseball, grafitis o cosas de ese estilo. Lo que sí está presente son varias referencias al presente, por lo que no se extrañen al ver mencionados a personajes de otros animes, como Fijiko de Lupin, o sagas de juegos, como Dragon Quest (lo cómico de estos comentarios es que solo las personas que los hacen los entienden, el interlocutor nunca tiene idea de que es lo que está hablando el otro).

Samurai Champloo tells the story of three strangers in the Tokugawa era (also known as the Edo Period) who come together on a journey across Japan. Anime Comment” is a spoiler-free section and is usually used for a general discussion about anime without spoiling any content. The concept for Samurai Champloo was created by Watanabe in 1999, then known for his work on Cowboy Bebop. He wanted to create a series antithetical to the largely calm and mature atmosphere of Cowboy Bebop, wanting a complete change due to fatigue after working on one project for such a long period. [18] [5] The success of Cowboy Bebop meant he was permitted to develop whatever he wanted for his next project. [37] As with his other projects, he drew inspiration from music, then matched a narrative to it. [38] His approach was combining two of his favorite things, classic samurai adventure films and series and hip hop music, into a single work. [12] He created the concept for Samurai Champloo during this period, but work on it was delayed due to his work on Cowboy Bebop: The Movie and his segments of The Animatrix at Studio 4°C. [5] [8] Kobayashi had invited Wanatabe to work on an original project at Manglobe when it was founded in February 2002, and Watanabe sent the Samurai Champloo pitch in May of that year. [8] The pitch included the central concepts for the series, and draft designs for the lead characters. [8] [6] Watanabe invited Nakazawa on board as he was a fan of his work and wanted the opportunity to work with him. Obara, known more for his work on live-action movies and television dramas, was brought in through a mutual friend at Office Crescendo. [5] Exchange of angry or abusive messages between the comments. Any form of insulting is also considered as flame war. Characters were nice, but not outstanding (the standard cast of characters to release some series). They didn't even feed me with
