Samurai X is based on traces of the legendary manslayer of ancient Japanese...

Sun, 7 Oct 2001 09:25:42 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author atatpilot9 - I normally like to write reviews on both content and format. The problem in this case is that I saw this before it was licensed for VHS or DVD. I saw it on laserdisc. Furthermore, it was a friends laserdisc, so this review is purely on the anime...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author brianchen_2001 - Ever seen one of those movies that just makes you drop your jaw and keep them down on the floor even after you leave the theater? This one sure did it for me. Unlike the TV series, which is very light-hearted and comedic, the OVA is very deep and...
