Sword of the Stranger
- Movie (1 ep x 98 min)
- 2007
Kotarou is a brash young orphan in war-torn Japan, on the run from mysterious pursuers with Tobimaru, his faithful canine companion. Clueless as to why anyone would want him, much less imperial warriors from mainland China, a chance encounter with a strange wandering swordsman could not be more unwelcome in Kotarou's skeptical eyes – especially when the stranger has a secret past that has caused him to seal his blade. Forced by circumstance to work together for survival, the unlikely duo forge a tenuous friendship that is threatened all too soon when Kotarou's pursuers thrust the two into a dizzying whorl of clashing ambitions between men both big and small. Will the stranger manage to overcome his past and save them both from peril with his blade?

Nothing quells the bloodlust of swords better than a double dose of Sword of the stranger and Lupin III: Chikemuri no Ishikawa Goemon. Violence and Samurai athstrics aside, both have a nice tight short little movie (well, Lupin-Goemon is more like 2 30 minute shows spliced, but still feels like a short movie.)
both of these titles are gorgeous in animation.

Both feature balls-to-the-walls sword-slashing action with exaggerated physics and lots of showy moves and poses. For those that want an action romp focused on swords, it's hard to go wrong with either one of these. Don't let the fact that one takes place in a nebulous "present" fool you: Goemon is steeped in samurai action.

Jubei Kibagami is just a wandering swordsman minding his own business... until fate lands him in the middle of a battle with the terrifying Devils of Kimon! Now the fate of all of Japan lies in the hands of a vagabond samurai, a deadly female ninja and a perverted old monk as they take on an enemy who is, literally, immortal.

Bloody and adult, with lots of swordplay and devilish colorful bad guys. If you want some good follow up to sweet ass action scenes, check out either title.

Samurai Champloo
- TV (26 eps)
- 2004 - 2005
Samurai Champloo is all about style, from the dj-style scratching scene changes to the hip-hop-inspired soundtrack to the eclectic character design. Mugen's fighting style is a funky meld of capoeira and limb-cutting, and Jin is the dramatic foil; he is all steel and old-school samurai style. What binds them together is the desire to test each other's abilities, and a promise to a girl named Fuu: to find the samurai that smells of sunflowers, who plays a pivotal role in her past. Together they travel through edo-era Japan, finding battle and comedy wherever they stop.

Animation and action? sure, but these both have slices and dices, plus a cast of vibrant characters. One is set in modern times, and Champloo is set in a somewhat reimagined history. If you loved some slash and chop and dug the fun of Goemon, check out Champloo, hell it is a whole series of it. Bit if you want a nice cap on top of your violence spree from SC, check out the Lupin one.
