I've never finished watching the series but from what I did see it was amazing and brutal as hell. The story starts off kind of slow but builds nicely. I only saw the first 6 episodes and thought no more were ever made but apparently there were. I'm definitely buying this when it drops.

I'm still waiting for my copy. I love all kinds of samurai anime (Champloo, Rurouni Kenshin, S7) so hopefully I'll like this

I started watching this yesterday I'm up to episode 5 or 6.... man is this SLOOOOW.

It seems good but I keep falling asleep. There is too many quiet moments for me. For example... a guy looking outside the doorway while the only audio is the sound of bugs and crickets for 5-10 seconds at a time that seem to drag on! Several moments of inner monologue and moments of still images with noting going on and it seems to jump from 1 day to another off into the future... To be honest I'm lost!!! yet IDK if I wanna start over.

The fights so far and 2 hits at most then done. Not like Samurai 7, Afro Samurai, Samurai Champloo or Samurai X where you get amazing visual cinematic artwork... Its more of a "slice" your dead.
Its got a great audio track but its pointless I hear nothing coming from most of the speakers because its mostly talking and no action. There are moments where the artwork was done with added grain I also find annoying... IDK this series isn't doing it for me yet but I will still finish it.

What the hell is this? Japanese only gets DD 2.0 while English gets TrueHD 5.1? If any track should get the TrueHD 5.1 treatment, it's the Japanese track, which is the original audio track!

No sale for me, for the same reason I'm boycotting the DBZ movies on BD!
