Afro Samurai (2007) by Takashi Okazaki & Gonzo
A 5-part mini series set in a futuristic yet feudal Japan.
Ah, yes. Revenge. The best fuel for a life-long battle and nothing beats childhood trauma to trigger revenge.
A lot of slashing, blood, more killing, guns, explosives, sex, smoking, freaks, and oh, the Afro Samurai pulled a Tyler Durden stint too. A touch of man wanting to become god is also apparent (stupid antagonist).
Watching the series made me want to be more like the Afro Samurai. HE SLICED A FUCKING BULLET!!! Mad skills! He even get to bang some hot ass girl. But of course, girls are trouble.
Overall, this IS some good shit. (Though I was kinda hoping the Afro would suddenly rant about the motherfucking snakes on the motherfucking plane. Samuel Jackson is the Afro Samurai)
