Gah, poor Mugen. Mistaken for the guy who attacked him earlier...

And wow, maybe it should've seemed obvious that one of Jin's former classmates would attack him... Completely consistent with his story after all, but I didn't expect it. And I don't really get why he didn't want to kill the guy - it would've been cake for him... Interesting personality he has... and ideals of course...

I almost would've thought Okuru was the Sunflower Samurai - he's got the seeds and all... XD And maybe Fuu is the daughter he thought died from the disease, alongside his wife? I'm probably totally wrong since this series wouldn't be that predictable, would it...?

WTF is wrong with Fu? 'A couple of useless bodyguards' she said... O.O And who's fault was that she fell to the river and almost drowned? Jz, that girl is so childish.

I read somewhere that the 3 rappers are actually rappers, but I can't find anywhere that confirms it. Anyone know anything about that?

Hmmm... so is Okuru a rouge samurai or a good guy fighting oppressive government officials (more likely given the anti-establishment attitudes the creator seems to display!) in this topsy-turvy world.

Sunflowers. Whats the friggin' deal with all the sunflowers? Argh! W.T.Ffffuuuuuuu?!?!?!

Aslo, it's been funny that these last coupla episodes Fuu has been berating the fact that Jin or Mugen dont find her attractive. Well, they seem to like voluptuous women and Fuu is just a teenager wanting to be all womanly and sexy but she's still a gangly youth who is clumsy a bit stupid and definitely cute to be sure, but not sexy.

Still, cliffhanger. D-D-D-Duuummmmmmm

A really nice episode. A bit enigmatic, but we learned a lot from it - even though our three parted ways, they are clearly "used to" each other and now feel a bit uneasy being separated.

Lol there's no need for you to 'predict' anything as its quite obvious they will be back together.
I also believe the samurai she is looking for is actually her dad that left them long ago for whatever reason.

Fuu annoys/irks me to no end.

For a second I thought that guy was the sunflower seeds.

Such a cliche plot for this episode. Fuu was such a spoiled bitch. Mugen was loud and reckless like always. Jin was the MVP for this episode. Took me until the end of the episode to realize the man Fuu was camping with was the guy who tried to kill Mugen.

Not that great of an episode 3/5

All the feels, tho.
Fuu and her samurai, Jin being torn when Fuu and Mugen finished their argument... it's just sad. Gotta get the band back together. Trio of rappers ftw.

I also would love for Fuu to be able to fight and some real skill on the battlefield, but I'll take what I can get. She's not a completely useless, mindless female lead :D

Wow I was almost surprised when, in an anime, the girl couldn't hold on any longer and fell from the cliff with nobody to catch her. That's Samurai Champloo, I guess.

Pretty slow, drenched episode. There's still time for the show to demonstrate the significance with the "sunflower samurai" thing. I wasn't willing to fall for the obvious tease of a red herring that Okuru was the same person that Fuu was looking for. Only disappointment was the re-used early sub-plot in the beginning about questioning Fuu's motives by Jin and Mugen and the split-up. You can't just conveniently place scenes like that in between long stretches of an episode; they should be hinted or developed over time.

I really liked how Fuu didn't care about them anymore and she was all okay with being alone and left with no one to take care for her.
I think she is looking for her dad who left her mom all alone. So she seeks for some revenge. I don't know we will see samurai champloo suprised me so much I don't even know what is gonna happen next.

And who else toughted when Fuu fell into the river it was Jin that saved her? ^.^

I think it was more of a lashing out in the moment sort of deal. If you take the previous episodes into context you can see how she cares for both Jin and Mugen (especially Mugen as she cried over him). But when you have a personality like Fuu's of course you're gonna get mean with people saying you have no sex appeal. When I was 15 I probably would have too :p

i really like the relationship of these 3 fools, Mugen and Jin treat Fuu just like older brothers treat their little sister, so I guess that's probably why they don't leave her at the first place and travel with her since then
