ANIME/MANGA PRIMER | Samurai Champloo

Samurai Champloo (サムライチャンプルー, 2004) is the brainchild of Shinichiro Watanabe (of Cowboy Bebop fame) and the animation studio Manglobe. The show shares some traits with it’s sister series: both depend heavily on music and cultural references to their respective genres; they differ in their usage of these things. Champloo falls back on hip-hop culture, the historical Edo period, themes of chambara (sword-fighting samurai) films. The series produced two manga volumes, two anime “seasons,” four soundtracks, and a video game.

The plot focuses on a party of three: Mugen, Jin, and Fuu.

  • “A young woman named Fuu is working as a waitress in a tea shop when she is harassed by a band of samurai. When a mysterious rogue named Mugen enters the shop, he offers to get rid of the band of samurai in exchange for food, but instigates in a brawl instead. Jin, a young ronin in samurai garb, enters the tea house in the midst of the fight. Mugen attacks Jin after he proves to be a worthy opponent and they begin fighting one another, ignoring a fire that started during the brawl. They both faint from smoke inhalation. When they awaken, they find they have been arrested for the murder of Shibui Tomonoshina, the magistrate’s son who had burned to death in the fire, and are to be executed. With help from Fuu, they escape and Fuu asks them to travel with her to find “the samurai who smells of sunflowers,” a mysterious man Fuu can give little description of, but whom she insists she must find, as she thinks he’s her long lost father. They agree to join her, with Fuu making in the condition that they are not to duel one another until the journey is done.”

Anime (Dual Audio [Japanese/English], English Subtitles):

Manga:

I think it would be a mistake to omit any soundtracks from this primer; it is integral to the series. The soundtracks consist of songs mixed by Nujabes, FORCE OF NATURE, Tsutchie, and Fat Jon, along with the opening and ending songs by MINMI.

AHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Giveaway! Something I’ve wanted to do for a while now.

Click on the image for a bigger version/rules/etc.

Even though I got my car back today and actually went out and got some sun, this is probably the most depressed I’ve felt since school ended UGHHHHH

My father gave me a huge lecture earlier that kind of felt like it came from nowhere, but in summary, it consisted of how my cousin just graduated from pharmacy school and is about to move to Dallas. And how I need to hurry up with school so I can catch up with everyone else in my family. (I don’t think that was the point of his lecture, but I took great offense to this anyway…)

Then it led to something along the lines of, “I noticed that you don’t have any friends.”

Which I tried to argue against, but then I realized that the friends I do have now are… Well. I don’t want to be a selfish bitch and be completely like, “weh my friends treat me like crap” because I, no doubt, have some very good memories with them and am thankful with what they’ve done for me.

But lately, I feel that I’m being deliberately left out of everything. Checking Tumblr and Facebook, of course, does not help these thoughts at all, OTL||| I’m always like, Hey! Let’s hang out! And I usually get an answer like, “I’m busy doing ___, but when I’m free, yeah, let’s hang out!” And then I see photos plastered all over the internet when they’re hanging out with other people (who I’m also friends with), and I’m like… Surely, there was a reason why I wasn’t invited. Am I a terrible person to be with?

How does one even make new friends at my age… I’d make friends at school, but. I’m so self-conscious about my age… I’m older than everyone else. (Whenever I express this to others, I’m told that I’m not THAT old, but my parents seem to think differently when they’re pressuring me to finish school quickly now.) I’m afraid of people asking me my age, and then they’ll be like, “What were you doing when you graduated high school?” Which really isn’t a big deal, but… I’m so sensitive about it -__-

Anyway, that aside, when my mother came home, I tried to tell her about my father’s lecture, which just led to her telling me that they’re both depressed because they’ve had to cut their social lives because of me (because their friends will ask how I’m doing, and they don’t want to tell their friends that I’m still in school at my age) and that they see no future for me.

I don’t know what to do.

I keep forgetting to update this blog, hurhur.

I unloaded a bunch of pictures from my camera, but they're on my other computer. It's such a hassle having a SD slot ONLY on my laptop, and it's also a hassle only having internet on this computer, which isn't even mine... But anyway.

Actually, I've been pretty busy lately, even though I don't leave the house often :[ There's much to report, but I'm so lazy right now... LOL

These are only some of the pictures from the past few weeks :\ They're my most recent from the past five days or so. Some Christmas cards I made to send out to friends, some gifts for others that were cute enough to merit a picture (haha), some fat Persona 4 cookies, some of my bunny awkwardly sleeping, some from this painting class that Kristen's cousin is working for (where they draw out a picture for you already and you paint it), some from Airon's birthday beer-tasting party, and some from James's Christmas party last night.

I found some pictures from the last time I went to Los Angeles :( I'd like to go back, with friends, because going with my two cousins who were all lovey-dovey then was so awkward.

This past month royally sucked. This past week especially. The end.

Also, I hate Christmas and New Year's >:( They're such couples holidays that it makes me sick >:( But then again, this is just bitterness talking.

Although I am really enjoying this weather... It's so cold that it's hard to type since my hands are frozen, but I love it so much!

I like how this girl is telling me that I'm taking things from her tumblr (from posts that she published forever ago, she says) Then she proceeded to provide me examples of things I "took" which were screenshots from Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts?! I'm pretty sure she didn't create Final Fantasy or Kingdom Hearts, but anyway... I could give a million reasons to defend myself, but I don't need to because I know I'm not doing anything wrong, but what the heck, what's the big deal? :| And we were also friends on Livejournal, and then she proceeded to un-friend me LOL because that's really mature :) That's okay, I don't need to be friends with teenagers.

Rant rant whine whine. I need an outlet for my anger >:(

Yay, Thanksgiving!

I don't really have too much to say .__. Except for these past two weeks has been a lot of epiphanies to knock some people out of my life and letting go of some things, so I guess you could say I'm really thankful for that! And for everyone who has been supporting me!

Anyway, I have a sudden urge to somewhat archive old photos and edit them, so don't mind me.

These are from 2005. Interesting how much my image has changed in the past four years, and I think it rapidly changed even more in the past two years, haha. Some random camera whoring pictures, pictures from A-Kon that year

I missed seeing D'espairsRay that year because I was sixteen, and the concert was seventeen and up LOL But the band did walk around the convention, and even though the managers were all butthurting over pictures being taken, I approached Zero and asked him for a picture, and he nodded :)

ZZ was also a really sweet band at A-Kon, but I didn't go to their show because I didn't really know who they were. I kind of regret it because they were so nice at the signings and Q&A :<

Cosplay (from other people) doesn't nearly interest me as much anymore than in my... youth... But a lot of people are saying A-Kon has been going downhill since 2004 and that all the good guests and cosplayers are at AX.

I caught a bunny that summer, too, but we only kept him for a few days because he was injured.

A few weeks ago, Helen and I were trying on all of Maria's wigs, haha! I particularly love her pink wig. Now I really want one, as opposed to dyeing my hair pink :<

On another note, I really want to cosplay as China now... I figure all I need to do is dye my hair darker, which I was meaning to do anyway because now that it has gotten so light, my roots are really showing, and it just looks greasy all the time when it really isn't LOL ;;;;;

Ugh I still can't find my camera T__T But I did finally unloaded a bunch of crappy pictures from my phone... Here are some scattered pictures of my bunny. The first one is pretty old, but it's quite possibly my favorite :)

I can't seem to find my camera, which pretty much is currently defeating the purpose of having this... But I did go to the Dir en grey concert on Tuesday with Christi. Concert itself was terrible because of everyone else who was there, but I caught Shinya's drum stick! I guess that's they all get for shoving me around. HA!

These are just some pictures I swiped from Christi.

Die, Toshiya, Kyo, Toshiya + Kyo, and me with my trophy.
