Avatar: Deux!!

This fangirl is both excited and worried that there will be a new Avatar series: this time titled "Legend of Korra." At the helm of the show are the same fellows that spearheaded Avatar: The Last Airbender. I hope the spinoff lives up to fan expectations...

OMG A NEW AVATAR SERIES!!!! I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!

Afro Samurai: Review

As much as I like (a) samurai; (b) swords; (c) bloody action scenes; (d) great animation sequences; and (e) Samuel L. Jackson, I must say that Afro Samurai was, well, absolute drivel. Nonsensical and near-retarded storyline. "Characters" who I would barely even call characters. Gratuitous gore and a random tasteless sex scene that might as well be anime porn. Lame-o boring "plot," if you can call it that.

I've already seen the whole anachronistic shtick. Cell phones and RPGs and guns and black people swinging Japanese swords to rap music. Yeah, yeah, yawn. Samurai Champloo did it, and did it MUCH BETTER.

Quite frankly, the action scenes got boring after a while. They were over stylized and overly unrealistic. It made me miss the Rurouni Kenshin OVAs, which had the most beautiful action scenes ever.

Well, I have nothing more to say about Afro Samurai other than . . . thank god it's over. I am stunned that this mini series actually got decent reviews when I scoured the great Internetz. C'mon, people, that was BAD. Really, really BAD! Netflix, send me the next volume of Moribito: Spirit of the Guardian!
