Fuu, Mugen and Jin are all brought together by a series of events and Fuu saves their lives, Mugen and Jin decide to accompany Fuu on a journey to find the "samurai who smells of sunflower". What follows is an adventure across 26 episodes that pits the 3 against new obstacles, meeting new people, and surviving as best they can in their search for the "samurai who smells of sunflowers". The setting is in the Edo-era of Japan where Mugen and Jin are both samurai from different backgrounds. Mugen is carefree and brash while Jin is composed and disciplined. The two clash right from the beginning and are at each others throats throughout their journey, only refraining from killing each other until after they find the "samurai who smells of sunflowers". The characters themselves are very intriguing, as their stories unfold throughout the series and helps you understand why they are alone from the start. The series is humorous, stemming from the characters and the situations they get stuck in. The action is very exciting as Jin and Mugen are both talented samurai who have different styles but are equally matched. The music is rather hip hop and jazzy, which makes fun to listen to. The art is very well done and fits the theme of the series. The story is entertaining to watch, as you watch the 3 characters on their journey, each episode becomes more entertaining than the last. Overall its a great series, definitely underrated and deserves a look. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
