I rewatched 2 episodes of Rurouni Kenshin (the series, not the OVA) after watching and reviewing Samurai Champloo. To be honest... the action sequences in Rurouni Kenshin are a little unsatisfying after watching some of the sword fights in Samurai Champloo. So many cutaway scenes! No fluidity!
Of course, Samurai Champloo doesn't have the epic storyline (I mean, you just don't get lines like "defeating Himura the Battousai is equal to conquering Japan itself!!!" in Samurai Champloo), but... I may like the visuals better! The Kenshin OVA is still my favorite, but in terms of the TV series, I think I may actually prefer Samurai Champloo!
