Samurai Champloo beats the test of time

I am on episode 12 of this series and its around a 8/10 the first couple of episodes were a tad slow for me but its really picking up and i love it so far. But i don't know if its because of how young i am but its insane to me that the slang mu gen uses is fairly up today.

Finally got my soundtrack records signed by all of the cast’s voice actors with some cool quotes

Over the last two years, I’ve been meeting the voice actors at TooManyGames to have them sign some of the soundtracks I have on vinyl. I met Steve Blum (Mugen) two years ago, Kari Wahlgren (Fuu) last year, and I just met Kirk Thornton (Jin) on Friday - they were all great, lovely people to speak with.

For the first record, I asked them to include their character’s quote from the beginning of the series when they’re talking about The Samurai Who Smells of Sunflowers. These lines are actually how I got into the series in the first place! I came across this lofi song (sunflower song - amphee) that sampled the lines; I had never heard them before and decided to look into the show that it came from.

For the second record, I just asked each of the VA’s to pick their favorite quote from their characters. Steve’s was “I’ll kill all you bitches,” Kari said she really liked “There’s always room for free food,” and Kirk had to really think about it and hit me with “Life is a journey. Time is a river. The door is ajar.” I just thought it was pretty funny and fitting that a lot of the quotes they picked pretty well matched their characters.

Does anyone know if this is a fanart?

I've seen many variations of this image with various background, is there a original one or this is a fanart?

A studio has finally produced statues of Samurai Champloo.

Size:1/6

Quantity:99

Figure Painter:Owl·K

This is a small-batch sold GK resin statue that requires no self-painting; the statue only needs simple assembly for display.

It is crafted from PU, resin, rust-proof metal, red wax, premium environmentally friendly paint and enamel paint. The finished product is still under supervision: the tint of Jin's sunglasses will be lightened in mass production.

・The position of Mugen's eyebrow water transfer decal has been slightly adjusted for a more exquisite texture.

・The facial features of the Fun version have been optimized.

Awesome merch at limited Samurai Champloo Popup in Shibuya!

Stumbled upon the limited Samurai Champloo Tsutaya bookstore popup running for this month on my recent trip to Japan! All the merch was super sick, including an acrylic coaster set of all the vinyls, a cassette player, keychains,!blind bags for stickers/badges, and a 3D multi-layered print.

Samurai Champloo x Poetry

Last year, I started a new writing project which involved me rewatching Samurai Champloo again (the easy part) and writing a poem for each episode. I wanted to write from different character perspectives and some of the biggest moments of the show. The book, titled Infinite (shout out War of the Words), released last Friday. I'm really proud of it and I hope it's a cool piece of media for other Champloo lovers to enjoy.
