Hey there! The only reason im writing this is because ive decided to just make an Action Anime Club where every week or whatever i will post a new anime for people to come and read and talk about it. you can also request for animes to apear on the site. Along with me making the site, it will also be maintained by Pharoh Yami as well. there will probably end up being a lot of cool stuff considering that Pharoh Yami will be helping me make it, but regardless, it will be awesome. As soon as we make it i will make a link here for anyone that wants to see it, and it will probably be on Yami's site too.
Check out Samurai Champloo Saturday nights at 11:30. Only on ADULT SWIM....Well, not anymore cuz the morons took it off the air.
Watch this awesome Samurai Champloo flash video Pharoh Yami's cousin made. This is his first video on flash but it’s really cool. You guys have to see it. After you watch give his cousin Clay Banks a standing ovation because the video is really neat. Thanks!
Mugen
A tough street fighter, Mugen is as straightforward as they come, a bundle of attitude and appetite. Orphaned at a young age, he raised himself in rough-and-tumble Ryukyu--modern-day Okinawa--a wide-open seaport prison camp where toughs, pirates, and sailors from everywhere were only too eager to show off a wide range of brawling tactics. Mugen early on began developing the free-for-all fighting style he calls champuru kendo, swiping bits and pieces from everything thrown at him and making up the rest as he went along. He’s done jail time for an unknown offense which, doubtless, taught him even more tricks as well as providing a chance for him to use and hone his skills. His lazy, sloppy exterior covers a feral temper that can flare into violence in an instant, but he’s equally capable of forming quick loyalties and defending girls in peril when it suits him. He’s shrewd, suspicious, perceptive, but basically relaxed and happy-go-lucky; utterly practical and pragmatic, trusts nothing but his own abilities and instincts, and has zero compunctions about kicking your lights out for money, or any other reason that amuses him. His distrust and dislike of authority figures is deeply ingrained, and he'll basically do anything he's told not to, just because. He’s about 19 and barely civilized, well set in a course of devoting his life to nothing but his favorite pursuits: eating, sleeping, chasing women and swordfighting, in no particular order. A rough case with great charm, satisfied with his life and his freedom, willing to handle whatever fate throws his way as long as he need follow no rules and serve no master--and yet, every day he says, ready to die.
Jin
Quiet, dignified, disciplined and enigmatic, Jin is in every respect the polar opposite of Mugen; a classically-trained swordsman with a precise and lethal fighting style. As Mugen wears red, he wears indigo blue. His age is 20. The very fact that he's permitted to carry a daisho (set of twin swords) says he's from a samurai family. His name means benevolence and compassion. He carries himself with unshakable self- confidence, and is virtually unbeatable, a devastating duelist with superbly pure technique and a blinding-fast draw. Jin keeps firm control of himself in every possible aspect from his appearance and appetite to his level monotone voice, speaks little. He seems to be seeking inner peace and balance in warrior’s discipline, and possesses a core of deep calm, but he's a creature of fierce pride and intensity who typically kills with a single stroke. At his darkest he radiates bitter, repressed anger, and observes the world with a narrow, resentful stare; at his best, he's all a samurai should be, capable of great gentleness, courtesy, martial skill and dauntless courage. He's almost two people, the detached and passive Jin who does as bidden, permits his friends to drag him around and unfailingly respects his elders, and the lightning-fast nemesis he becomes when he draws his sword. He only seems truly awake and alive when fighting.
Fuu
The mystery person of the show, her mother is dead, her father long missing, and she’s drifted and worked a variety of jobs despite her young age of 15. The earth element of the triad, she wears mauve-shaded pink, right down to her plum-blossom-patterned tanto knife. Starting as a teashop waitress, she takes the arson destruction of the teahouse as a sign that it’s time for her to hit the road and go on her great quest: the search for a mysterious samurai who smells like sunflowers. Though anime-girl cute with her big brown eyes and petite figure, Fuu is no pushover and will not be bullied. She’s brave and determined, willing - like the guys - to go hungry, improvise, and live by her wits to reach her goal. She hates to see anyone or anything bullied or mistreated and will stand up to anyone in defense of the abused; her compassionate heart has already earned her the love of several unlikely characters in the series. Nor is she afraid to call names and knock heads when her newly-adopted older brothers misbehave. She’s got a bit of a gambling bug and has awe-inspiring skills as a dice dealer. Hidden somewhere on her person at the unlikeliest times is her pet flying squirrel, Momosan, which has helped her out of several jams. And, of course, she’s the driver of the trio’s adventure: she helped rescue Mugen and Jin for the express purpose of recruiting them, and though they run into many things on the road, their end goal is always hers.

DVD
After a long hard annoying series of punches and yells from Pharoh Yami, I've finally decided it's that time again to update again, and how convinient that the first season (or however many episodes there are) came out on DVD yesterday. I plan on getting it. I'm guessing it will be $50 dollars, but its worth it. I learned about it here at this Cybercamps place I'm at with the Pharoh. We sit at computers all day, and go out sometimes, but we are doing C++, and for those of you who don't know what that is, its programing, so we are both in the process of making games. I'll try to update more, and for those of you who acctually read this, good job.

The music of Champloo
Well today I was out with a couple of friends and I was listening to my Ipod and started thinking about the music in Champloo. I'm not a huge Hip-Hop fan, but Champloo has some great music. I wanna get the soundtrack if there is one. Anyway we went to some chinees restaruant and it ended up costing like 80 dollars in the end. I was kinda annoyed that it costs so much to eat there, but I'm not gonna complain, cuz i only paid 10 dollars anyway.
