Samurai 7

I have finished watching Casshern Sins on Netflix recently since it appears too late at night on Adult Swim on Saturdays and I always have work the next day. Casshern Sins is alright overall as an action Anime series, but there were just some very weird dialogue that didn't make much sense. I had also watched all of Afro Samurai, and that is also a really good action Anime series. It is very short though.

A series that I have been enjoying a lot is Samurai 7. It is a very good action Anime series with some very interesting characters and a very intriguing plot.

This story takes place in a futuristic world where many samurai have become bandits and pilot giant machines to take rice, people, and other things from the peasants. Three peasants from a village journey into the city in order to hire a real samurai in order to defeat the bandits. It is rather difficult because the only payment they have to offer is the rice they harvest. They find Shimada Kanbei, a wise and very talented samurai, Okamoto Katsushiro, a young and inexperienced samurai in training, and Kikuchiyo, a cyborg samurai whose only talent seems to be immense physical strength. Shimada Kanbei has determined that they will require seven samurai in total in order to fight the bandits. From there, many interesting encounters occur.

Samurai 7 is also now playing on Adult Swim, but at a very late time.
