Samurai Champloo (サムライチャンプルー)
Clumsy waitress Fuu Kasumi's spilled drink sparks a violent clash between two samurai with wildly different styles,the acrobatic Mugen and the precise swordsman Jin. After accidentally destroying a teahouse and killing a magistrate's son, the two are rescued by Fuu, who hires them to help her find a mysterious warrior smelling of sunflowers. Their uneasy journey through an alternate Edo Period Japan blends breakdancing-inspired combat with hip-hop beats and constant friction between her unlikely protectors.
