| I waited around 8 years to rewatch this serie since 2006 when was aired on CN latinoamerica, and the ending was a bit sad, I was expecting they would stay together but at the same time, it makes sense, I'm pretty sure that met later. One of the best anime I've ever seen in my life, and now I recall why I'm so fascinated with Samurais and why I'm so eager to go to Japan, this anime made feel like going now even more. If I made it to Japan, I'll definitely do the same journey through Japan. I found this map with Mugen, Jin and Fuu journey. |
| Amazing anime that kept action, comedy, and adventure in a great balance. |
| Amazing show. 10/10 |
| How do I signature? |
| I personally think Mugen and Jin should have died together, just collapsed next to each other but I understand why they didn't leave it like that. |
| I didn't like ending that much as it was more of an open ending and I generally hate them. I would like to know how they ended up, whether they met again, how they made living, if Jin returned to Shino and if ninja woman eventually married Mugen. Speaking of that, throughout whole series there were some subtle hints that Fuu might liked Mugen but they ditched it just with See you again... Not satisfied with the last minutes but overally this ep. was really great and the whole series was brilliant although, there were some eps. that were not so good, still Samurai Champloo confirmed that it's a jewel and belongs to top. 10/10 |
| Between the adult world and the world of kids, there, Holyland exists. |
| That was a nice combo kill using the opponent's weapon to kill him. |
 |
| A beautiful ending to such an amazing series. 10/10. The action was compelling and superb. The feels are strong. Thought Jin and Mugen were definitely going to die, would have hurt so much. So relieved they are alive and acknowledging each other as friends now. Since they split paths, hope they will run back into each other like every other time they tried to lose their way and fate ultimately times them back together in one piece. 10/10 |
| It's a bitter sweet ending, i mean they should've stayed together since they can manage to survive and get by when they're together, i was waiting the whole credit scene hoping that they'll turn around and decided to travel together again :( Well at least both Mugen and Jin still alive Overall score 9/10, would give it perfect 10 if they keep traveling together |
 |
| Finished this a few days ago and I gotta say that this was one helluva ride, how they all survived at the end even with the bombs and stuff was little bit pushing it but I am glad they are all alive, I'm sure they'll meet one another in the future. But WOW, I have to praise for it's art and animation, for a 2004 anime, it's unbelievably amazing. 8/10 |
| One of the best fights I have seen for sure. Holy balls..killing an opponent with his own weapon. Dat fucking lowlife shooting Mugen. WAT, Jin? What a thriller. It seems I was wrong. Lady Luck has never left these 2 fuckers xD Epic finale. I wish they stayed travelling together but it was good nontetheless. Awesome characters and even the hip=hoppy music didn't bother me. There was also some great traditional Jap music. Very solid action series. Episodes 19-21 and 24-26 made me raise the score: strong 7/10 |
| Don´t know how to feel about ´em still being alive. Several cuts and beatings,a gunshot wound and a dozen sticks of dynomite exploded right to Mugen´s face and he doesn´t even have any permanent damage.But it the end I finished it in only 2 days and enjoyed it a ton,so I guess it doesn´t matter. |
| i loved how they ended it personally (the whole arc) really this show was so much fun. |
| That final three episodes were outstanding. In this episode I thought too often that Mugen, Jin and Fuu die or they are already dead. For me it was surprising that they survived. A great series ends! |
| That ending was absolute BS. theres no way they could have survived but I absolutely love the fact that they did. Overall I really liked the show it was so stylish and stuff |
| 9.5/10 |
 |
| so fucking happy they survived amazing anime |
| :3 |
| I was expecting them to end up traveling together! They all went separate ways, kinda sad... 7/10 |
 |
| I just finished this show today, and I have to say that I really enjoyed it a lot overall. I'm just a bit dissapointed by how the last episode turned out. I would have rated the show with a solid 9 but can't do it after Jin survived while being cut on the side by the 'Hand of God' samurai and thrown to the water for the first time, and then being stabbed again on his back but was still able to kill his opponent. It was quite unbelievable. In the other hand, Mugen surviving to a bullet in the stomach and to a bunch of grenades was also pretty lame. It would have been better if he just killed the guy in the wheelchair right before the explosion and that situation was avoided. So Jin dying in ep. 25 would have made a big impact and this show would be pretty much perfect for me. It's a pity. I still give it an 8/10. And well, after forgetting the deaths of Jin and Mugen, I really don't have a problem with them and Fuu parting ways after they accomplished their journey. I think this end was the right thing to conclude the story, although it was a bit sad to see them split once again. The OP, ED and the OST are amazing. A very entertaining and recommendable show all in all. |

| I was hoping the kunoichi chick would show up. |
| Despite the fact that Mugen and Jin survived their respective fights, the whole ending was fantastic. The tension, the OST, the animation, all of this makes these three last episodes very enjoyable. 9/10. Action, comedy, drama...what else could I ask for? |

| I know that this discussion thread is pretty old now, but the anime is so good, that I don't want or think that the spirit of Samurai Champloo to end. This anime has the chillest beats by the way, thank you Nujabes and the music cast, but I want to know some things. Did Fuu lie and say that the coin flipped was actually heads? Because if I recall back to the first episode, I thought it did really land on a tails. What happens now? Now that they are going their separate ways, it feels so sad for them to do so, but I feel that's what they wanted and it was pretty cool, so I'm alright with that ending, and plus, they've accompolished their journey that Mugen and Jin started with Fuu, so I guess that makes sense of them to split again, but it's just so sad. Very enjoyable anime, knows how to incorporate different kinds of themes together, which brings the best experience in an anime. |

| ur kidding me, this is the end & no season2?! it can't end until they have dealt with Shougan guy, cause until they haven't she has to look over her shoulders, she has Shitty life until then, that's the reason season 2 is needed, & i don't give a SH that it was made so long ago |
| I feel like I wanted something more from this ending. I like how they acknowledged their friendship and went their separate ways knowing this, but everything before that was pretty cookie cutter. Let's throw logic out the window and ignore these life threatening wounds but ok. Will definitely miss the OST the most. |
| There's no way they should've survived but I'm grateful for it. Shoutout to the late Nujabes and Fat Jon for the work they put in for this show. Soundtrack really gave the show a unique feel to the show and it worked so well. Def one of the best soundtracks for any show I've watched |
| I bet they'll end up together again eventually. |
| Not quite my tempo. |
 |
| What? Why would they not be together after all they've been through? Nonetheless, it was a satisfying ending. Jin looked extremely handsome when he reappeared. Dayum. |
| HEY! |
| I think they have happy ending. I know Jin will be back to Shino because Jin is love her so much I know Yatsuha will find mugan to get married. She will find her way to find Mugen I hope Fuu get a nice husband |
| This was such a beautiful journey, amazing anime in every sense of the word. :) |
| I was going to give this anime a 10 even tough i didn't liked a few episodes where nothing serious happened, but unfortunately this end does not satisfied me, jin was already practically dead and decide to use a technique that involve you getting stabbed and dying but being able to take your opponent with you, but for non explained reason he didn't die (don't get me wrong i'm happy kind off that he didn't die but still). Mugen not dying didn't bothered me, he was in a situation where it was believable he could survive. The last thing that i didn't like is that they part way at the end, just why ? if there would have been a sequel it wouldn't have bothered me but here it leave a really bad taste in my mouth. And last a little thing that is personal i would have liked to have Fuu and Mugen "officially" together... |
| Well I guess the old guy was only hit by the other end of the sword as I thought he got stabbed but he was fine. I don't like that Jin survived considering he was already heavily wounded and his sensei said you have basically 0 chance of surviving. I hope Mugen goes and gets that sex he was promised. 8/10 it had 2 or 3 mediocre episodes. |

| I thought that samurai in ep 2 will show up in the last arc, seriously who's that old guy? |

| Whoo, I watched that as a reward for finishing finals but that arc was more stressful than my tests. Not sure how I feel about them splitting up. Makes sense conceptually - everyone meets people in their life but we all ultimately have our own journey. But considering they were all so lonely before, and the journey sort of opened them up as friends, it kind of goes against that to me. Have to think about it. |
| Im so glad that all of them Fuu, Mugen and Jin didn't die. They wouldn't have deserved an end like this. The final battle between Mugen and Jin against those guys was very exciting and breathtaking. The final scene made sense as some of here have already mentioned that everyone has to go their own way and live their life but this time they split up as friends for life and im really sure they will meet again like they always did when they split up. Im just asking myself why i haven't watched this series much earlier but im happy that I have finally made it. Samurai Champloo has everything you ask for a masterpiece of an anime like great action scenes, awesome main characters with each of their individual strengths and weaknesses, a beautiful soundtrack and a great sense of humour. 5/5 for the final episode and as a overall rating for the whole series Samurai Champloo deserves a 10/10 without doubt in my opinion. |

| The fight of mugen was an interesting watch. Fuu's father dying and those reveals concerning him were suprising. And long last jin and mugen consider each other as friends. |
 |
| Kind of anticlimactic ending but still pretty good. Overall, this show wasn't as memorable as Cowboy Bebop, the self-contained episodes worked better for that show and it just didn't immerse me as much as that show did. The music wasn't as good, and the characters weren't as fleshed-out. But it was still a good show. 5/5 |

| Kind of convenient how their swords broke right as they were about to kill each other and how they managed to survive all their injuries,but in the end glad neither of the two died. 8/10. |
