I just recently started watching an anime, Samurai Champloo. It's a 6 disc series, but I've only seen the first two so far. It's pretty funny, and it'll make fun of itself every so often.
Basically, it's about two sword fighters, who really just want to kill each other because the other is the only person they've never been able to kill, and a young orphan girl who travel around Japan looking for a samurai who smells of sunflowers. The girl won't let them kill each other until they've helped her find the samurai, but she's let them know that as soon as they find him, they're free to off themselves.
Needless to say, they find trouble where ever they go, and they end up fighting badguys (and usually themselves along the way).
I don't have much else to say because, like I said earlier, I've only seen the first two discs so far.
ooooh, this is an anime you'll like. It's well dubbed, too. So you could watch it in either language and enjoy yourself =] They showed it on cartoon network a while back. Only 1 ep bugged me and it was just a filler XD
Girl who has to find a man who smells like sunflowers, quiet man with a mysterious past, slash-happy lunatic in a constant duel with his counterpart, and a sugarglider that's only role is to be cute..
