| sam jack is some overrated shit nostalgiafagging rose gogggles young and restless "is that profesor utonium?" neverending shounen samurai flamenco is where the fun is at that description of erin reminds me of Saiunkoku Monogatari (or ginei for that matter) there is only so much politics, love, betrayal, assasination, history, religion, war, friendship, joy, sadness, terror, and touch of mysticism one can take in a lifetime |
 |
I don't really care, I just want to say that's retarded. |
| Do you have a source for the novel being a children's novel? It doesn't seem like something particularly interesting for kids. I probably wouldn't have liked it before I was 20. To me it's one of these shows that have no age-based demographic. A quick research didn't get me anywhere, they just called it a novel and not a childrens novel. But yeah, it is an amazing and underappreciated anime. Idk about Samurai Jack tho since I haven't seen it. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |

Buo said: Samurai Jack better than any anime out there? How high do you have to be to say such nonsense? I never knew there was so much fucking shit taste on the MAL forums. |
| every single one of my forum posts is dumb and invalid except for 1, I don't claim them it was a different person it was all fake |
I know this isn't being serious, but yes how dare someone on an anime forum think anime is better than some cartoon they never cared about. |
| I never knew there were so many people eager to call others wrong or retarded when they dont even recognize a hyperbole. For your information Samurai Jack is the best shit eva. Ill try that Kemono ghibli stuff out some day. But seriously Samurai Jack IS better than most anime, not the vast majority but definitely above average. |
 Oshii is probably the only director that loves dogs. He thinks he's a dog himself. That's right, its slime! It will dissolve your clothing slowly before my eyes! |
| I already have that anime in PTW and eventually watch it but it is still an anime and it is incontestable that Samurai Jack > any anime |

| Okay... thx for sharing your opinion. It doesn't mean it's right though. I think Erin is a really underwatched and underappreciated show, but it can't really touch Samurai Jack. The stylistic choices and visuals alone put Jack on another level. Also you have to consider the medium. Anime is oversaturated with these types of dramatic sob stories with female leads. Samurai Jack is extremely unique among western T.V. |

| Who is Jack and Erin? Is this like Jack and Diane, except Jack dumps Diane for some girl named Erin? |
 |
| I liked Samurai Jack when I was a kid but I wouldn't say it's better than anime in my opinion. |

I dont want to argue, so I will leave it at that... You said "undeniable that Kemono no Souja Erin obliterate Samurai Jack in every way", but when I say basically the same thing (but with Samurai Jack being the praised one) I am being a bigot. You call me a bigot because I have a different opinion yet you are intolerant towards those holding different opinions which by the way is the definition of bigot. The only way you could make me care less about your opinion is being an (probably) alt with less than a month from your creation... oh wait... |

| In the end they are both animation and i like them, a flaw of Erin is the comic relief characters. God they are freaking annoying. I would give Samurai Jack the same score i gave to Erin. |
 |
| This show really fascinated me when I was younger. |

I have seen how anime vs cartoon threads turned out, so I really dont want to argue about it. You havent seen KnSE, and yet say 'it is still an anime' to say that it is inferior, meaning you dont care how good it might actually be, and just by being an anime, its value is pre determined. I did not say samurai jack is inferior because 'it is still a cartoon', and instead I have actually seen some episodes of Samurai Jack I wouldn't say its value is predetermined but more like limited to be inferior to Samurai Jack. I don't see how not caring about how good the anime is would make me a bigot. You can say that KnSE obliterates Samurai Jack but I cannot say that Samurai Jack > all anime? |

I think the hyperbole was just fine, like any hyperbole :D |

| well samurai jack is the most one dimensional character ever. but he is still more likeable than most anime mc. that show is basically a CN made battle shonen. and while it cant touch shows like fairy tail, hxh, gb, rk etc, jack is still a better mc than most battle harem, echhi romcom, nose bleed never getting laid tsunderefags, so yes samurai jack is[the old one was] better than many anime. but its not better than all anime. btw @op why the fuck are you comparing a sad lil girly story with a violent edgy slasher show? whats next? compare southpark or someother shit like that to moe shows? |

Gaiga said: I read the shows summary. reads like a shojo.KuroudoAkabane said: btw @op why the fuck are you comparing a sad lil girly story with a violent edgy slasher show? I'm comparing two shows aimed at younger audience. And Erin is seriously not a 'sad lil girly story' :/ also, your saying they are aimed at similar demographics makes no sense. samurai jack was aimed not at small children but teens. it aired during other teen shonen type shows, like swat katz, centurions space ghost and ccs etc. didnt you say you watched that erin anime when ur 10? in japan? |

I know people like throwing these terms around without having any knowledge but its just incorrect. One dimensional MC's are actually really rare. What you mean is a character development and the ones mentioned are mostly static(not dynamic) characters. |

Although I dont think you should be comparing both shows qualities while having only one of them completed. I might find some cool vid in the near future. I think the hyperbole was just fine, like any hyperbole :D Yeah it does have unique animation, but was doubtful about it putting Samurai Jack on another level. But I guess you are right about the comparing thing :-) Well there's no guarantee I can convince you, but here are two scenes from the same episode with vastly different tone and feel. Its not really Jack as a character that is the strength of the show, but the unique visual style. The backgrounds and the environments of the show are what give it character. There is a great deal of variety in the type of atmosphere and the tone of the episodes evoke. You never really know what to expect when you watch a new episode. It is very minimalist and optimal not just in it's dialogue but also the visuals. It's hard to explain if you haven't even bothered to finish the show. Erin is a good show though and more people need to watch it. I just don't feel like it is breaking any barriers or doing anything particularly new or innovative. It is pretty much a World Masterpiece Theater anime done in the late 2000's. Plus those thief brothers were awful character and added absolutely nothing to the series. |
