Re: Samurai Champloo
According to an interview with the creator, the purpose of this series was intended to tell many stories that had little in common but that would all add together to a good total experience, much like a complicated soup.
I'm sure some people found fault with the jarring anachronisms (especially if they forgot the first minute of episode 1), but I've noticed that watching the series again is almost as satisfying as the first time through, which is a good definition of excellence in entertainment.
