metadigital Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 I was amazed at the concept, until I read "voice actor", after all, Sammy is over 50, AND he has had a *ahem* colourful life with plenty of interesting diversions. Not too convincing if he had to start prancing around like a ninja ...

LoneWolf16 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Brad Pitt...The Mexican Tom Cruise...The Last Samurai Samuel L. Jackson...Afro Samurai... I'm confused... I had thought that some of nature's journeymen had made men and not made them well, for they imitated humanity so abominably. - Book of Counted Sorrows 'Cause I won't know the man that kills me and I don't know these men I kill but we all wind up on the same side 'cause ain't none of us doin' god's will. - Everlast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calax Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 I like how we americans screw with everything... we have a white guy as a mexican, another white guy as a Japanese only tradition, and a black guy as a freaking Samurai! it couldn't get any better unless I learned that Voltron was actually the Power Ranger's Megazord in disguise!

Also, according to that article, Gonzo is in charge of the anime. This is bad news. Gonzo inherently f***s any projects with which it is related. Take, for example, what it did with Speed Grapher. Maybe Fuji will be able to rein them in, but we'll see.

That's the only one I can come up with, but several Japanese games have anime styled cutscenes in them (LUNAR!). I wanna see a Battle Angel Alita anime. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition!

I think BAA can be considered an inspiration for his Dark Angel series, to a degree. Last Order is also not in the same ballpark as the original BAA, imo.
