Well, the movie sequel to Last Year's Number One Best Seller Afro Samurai has just finished airing on Spike and these are some of my initial thoughts. Well for one thing this was much better than the TV Show, we actually have some character development for Afro in the movie, in fact much more then we did in the TV Series. There are some plot holes as other people mentioned like Why does Sio even have a grudge against Afro? Well generally I tend to think that maybe she blames Afro for what happened to her brother, but that's generally what I make of it. I think introducing a character like Shichiguro was a good call, he was for the most part generally a nice guy and you can see why anyone would be reluctant to fight him. But when Afro and him face off, you can tell it's purely business and nothing more. I think we can definitely expect a sequel to finally end the Series once and for all, The ending of the movie definitely indicates that. So overall, it has it's flaws but still it's much better than anything else, I think 8 out of 10 might be generous but I feel it's fair for the movie. Don't anyone deny though, the Art in this show is breathtaking.
