Don't lift the bar, it's the work of God

Hey, hey, someone said that the plot is weak, let me refute Ang

Because it's just a journey, there are ties between the three people, but the story lines are basically independent, and it's just a story of saying goodbye to the past

Moreover, even daily life cannot be all about fighting monsters and upgrading. This is a road movie, a story that takes place on a journey. Besides, our protagonists don’t have the energy to live (even if they can’t even eat), it’s mainly a story. lines are relatively independent. Moreover, the setting of the story is also very elegant. Basically, it does not deviate from the background of the times. Many narrative perspectives have been changed in the middle. The story of the samurai from Ryukyu is told in the tone of hundreds of years later. Many small details are very suitable. For example, Wuhuan's second knife, a blind girl with super strong combat power, was originally a sad story, but most of them have been pointed out, and there has been no excessive rendering.

In addition, the most admired thing about Watanabe in storytelling is that he is not limited to the structure of traditional fighting road films, looking for treasures, Ai, etc., cuts into a very special cultural perspective, and runs through it completely, Nothing has to be obeyed. The heirs of the dojo chose the fighting style of hip-hop graffiti. Although it may sound absurd, the animation went to take a lot of production to give the characters maximum respect and space for self-expression. The beginning of the suspense ends with a symbol representing infinity drawn by Wuhuan, who has just learned a few big characters, at the end. It is very joking, but the two graffiti brothers who seem to have nothing on their backs are particularly real.

The three of them started out on a chaotic journey. In addition to Feng having a clear goal, Wuhuan and Ren both slowly discovered what they needed and what they lacked in their hearts during the journey. Ren was constantly searching for the profound meaning of martial arts in his heart, and he lost his hand. Killed his master and became the terrifying Hundred People Slasher. He put on his glasses silently. In fact, he was a gentle and delicate academic, Wuhuan was a slow-moving lover, and the sword in his hand could be thrown away for one person. The wind found a samurai with the smell of sunflowers, but for the three of them, this trip was a journey of discovery and farewell to the past, ghosts walking at night, no illusions falling into the sea, and the illusion of dense tide ducks surfaced in their minds, In the mouth of the strongest swordsman, Ren learned the reason why his teacher attacked him. In the last blow, Ren did not wear glasses, and the samurai who had been looking for so long died in front of the wind. This is the end of the trip for the three of them. I am very glad that they are still alive and can continue their journey. Who knows, maybe they are looking for something, this is probably the charm of road movies! The best stories and the best plots are always on the journey, and this story will end. Who knows what will happen next. At the beginning, it was super cool with up-headed coins or something. sad

Samurai Champloo quotes

  • Mugen: When you point a sword at someone either you kill them or they kill you, there ain't no inbetween. So quit talkin' like a fuckin' pussy. Anyone who can't handle that should just SHUT THE FUCK UP and GET OVER IT!

  • Sara: What I can't see I can sense.

    Mugen: [stumbling, bleeding] What?

    Sara: Inside of you looms a simmering storm of hatred and rage, but perhaps what I'm actually sensing is sadness. It's as if you've never once been loved by anyone; it's as if you're just like me.
