Well, episodes 20 and 21 are by far the best episodes of Samurai Champloo. If the show had been this good ten or 15 episodes ago (as I thought it might at episode 11, but ended up not), it would have been a jaw-dropping amazing series.

As it is, it's looks to be turning into a "decent anime with a great ending." It's a pity that they wasted the opportunity for more by kick-starting the series so late, but I am delighted that it's decided to kick in at all, even belatedly.

Although the character art was weird on episode 21, the final scene was fantastic and the closing shot FUCKING AMAZING. I love unsual perspective shots. I loved the last shot in this episode; I loved the long, speed-shot of the bridge on episode 23ish of Naruto, I loved the ground-view of Edward's darkening vision as he goes unconscious in episode 2 of Full Metal Alchemist. It's all about the elaborate perspective shots.

I totally need to make icons of this episode.

I don't agree at all that "Samurai Champloo" hasn't been fantastic up to this point, but I am in total agreement that 20 & 21 (I am still in shock over the latter) are fucking outta-the-ballpark-and-into-the-stratosphere AMAZING.

You need to make icons of this episode so I can steal them. (Animated icons! Your animated icons always turn out prettier than mine!)

Well, that comes down a lot to personal opinion. Like I've said in earlier posts, there's always been stuff I liked about this series and always been stuff that's disappointed me. I feel like we're finally at a point where I like ALL of it instead of just parts of it, and I'm not disappointed at all. I think it's a waste that it took 20/26 episodes for this show to get to that point, that's all.

Still, it does all come down to opinion. :)

I am going to make at least two animated icons. Maybe 3 or 4.

Is it 100% certain that it's only going to be 26 episodes?

That's the number I've seen on various website literature.

::grumble:: Well, poop on a stick.

I knoooooow.

That's what I figured. Actually, I think the series would have been better from a perspective of flow at 13 episodes, but I can't say I'm in a hurry for it to end soon. When I'm finally REALLY getting into it.

I have caps for several more that I'll make tomorrow, but...

...

And because Nickleback came on in the car tonight...

Episode 21? You have episode 21? Whence? Animeforever has up to only ep 20. I MUST KNOW WHAT HAPPENS.
