Default Samurai Champloo

So i was looking up some animes on th net and i came by this one, its's really cool. It's directed by Shinichiro Watanabe (the director from Cowboy Beebop(which is awesome)). The show is set in a fictional version of Edo period Japan, featuring elements of action, adventure and comedy blended with an anachronistic, predominantly hip-hop soundtrack. Its name comes from the Okinawan word "chanpurū", which means to mix or blend. Thus, the title may be translated as "Samurai Remix".
The show is unique, in that it matches modern Japanese hip-hop music with a stylized form of samurai swordplay known as chambara.The world of Samurai Champloo is often anachronistic. Characters' costume design, attitudes and editing methods reflect heavily towards international hip-hop culture. One of the protagonists, Mugen, even fights in a style that resembles Capoeira or something like break dance.
Samurai Champloo revolves around the journey of three individuals: The brash, lanky vagabond Mugen, the quiet and stoic ronin Jin, and the young, insistent Fuu. At the beginning of the story, Fuu helps Mugen and Jin escape from a vengeful local magistrate, and she persuades them, by flipping a coin, to help her in her search for a mysterious samurai who smells of sunflowers. In the progressing adventure she will have the trouble of keeping her two companions out of trouble and from attempting to kill each other.
