    Not Too Bad

    Afro Samurai was ok, but it didn't really hold my attention. The action was bloody but somehow not that interesting, just all quick cuts. The main character of Afro was also really dull, he hardly said anything and I didn't really care that much if he succeeded.

    If you're just looking for blood then it's all right, but for more story and better action, rent Samurai Champloo instead.
