Cool. Great story, even though it may be taken as just a fighting movie.

A concept, D- delivery. Just watch Samurai Champloo and The Boondocks simultaneously, it'll be way more entertaining.

Sounds like great fun on paper, but you'll feel disappointed after seeing it. Plot is very poor by anime standards, it's just an excuse for hack&slash action. Animation is stylish and unusual. Overall - decent time-killer, nothing else.

Don't go in expecting any substance or a meaningful narrative for that matter. The story purely exists to give the action some context. It's so the animators have something to animate, which in Afro Samurai's case are epic fight sequences. And to be fair, they're handled exceptionally well, no doubt about it and with only 5 episodes it does not overstay its welcome. So if you're a fan of gory animated action make sure you check this out. Otherwise, you're far better of with Samurai Champloo.

Just as "Resurrection" is my favorite non-family animated movie, this is my favorite non-family animated series. Completely driven by it's hyper stylized visuals and amazing cast, "Afro Samurai" rarely has a dull moment with incredible set-pieces and action sequences. Ron Perlman should be in everything.

Nice pace, nice setting, nice visuals, don't expect any story. For my taste Samuel L. Jackson's character/voice acting was annoying as hell.

second part with a concept of story, action plays; - first part, role of imaginary friend of Afro, also all concept about Samuel L. Jakcson which was terrible and all thing that make this so Afro-American and not only Afro.... In all mean: shame, big shame it could be great animation movie...

Reminds me of Snakes in a Plane. A perfect idea for a Samuel L Jackson movie but the execution isn't there. The plot is bad but the action makes up for some of it.

Stylish and exciting, with gorgeous fight scenes. It features some creative and unusual enemies (a Teddy Bear faced villain!), a stoic protagonist, and even some neat comic relief. They're not re-inventing the wheel here, but it's just executed to a very high level, giving the viewer exactly what he wants. An excellent little action gem.

Decent, but this seems more like an anime for people who have never watched one before...Sammy's voice acting is practically wasted on the main, and god awful in Ninja-Ninja. The animation and the style are nice, but that's all that kept me going through this.
