Samurai 7 Release Date and Synopsis

Set in a futuristic world that has just witnessed the end of a massive war, scores of villages are terrorized by Nobuseri bandits. But the Nobuseri are no normal bandits. They were once Samurai, who during the war integrated their living cells with machines to become dangerous weapons now appearing more machine than man. Absolute power corrupts, and their reign of terror is increasing its hold on the countryside. But one group of villagers has had enough, deciding to hire Samurai to protect their village. Kirara is a young priestess who travels to the city seeking out protection. One by one, she encounters brave samurai that the war has left behind. These men of skill and valor are each unique and not without their quirks. But can they come together as one to defend the helpless village?

It's AwesomeThis show is great just to put it simple. There are few things that I didn't like about it. Most of them were pretty minor except for the fact that the whole series is based on the 7 Samurai trying to protect the village. But other than that, this show is great. It has lots of action and an in depth storyline. I highly recommend it. I agree with a lot of the people here about getting new anime. iTunes should get more shows such as Trinity Blood(Great Show) and Blood +. I don't agree about the other ones like DBZ and Bleach. They're great shows it's just that they're too long and the price can add up. Bleach already has 122 episodes. For $2.00 an episode thats $244. Just stick to watching them on the internet or TV. -Cykonn.Score: 5/5

Great series.Well, I really enjoyied this series, it's a very dynamic story, that i'm very happy they bothered to expand on the original movie (which was live action). The animation is great, and, while alot of these jerks love to harp on the dubbing, the dubbing is pretty well done. I'd love to see them try it. It's not easy to do. That aside, for those who'd like to "keep it pure" or whatever, you can spoil yourselves with the DvD set. I don't really understand what's so bad about dubs, but i guess most of these 15 year olds would rather be cool and listen to it in Japanese with dubs then english, and look at the art and listen, instead of getting stuck reading letters blazing by on the bottom of the screen. Anyways, I prefer being able to watch my anime whenever, where ever i want, DVDs are kind of cumbersome on a plane or train ride.. I'd say the ease of use by getting anime like this overweighs any factor of "bad" dubbing or "lack of subtitles". :3 Just a bunch of spoiled fans..Score: 5/5

Facing starvation at the hands of the Nobuseri, the farmers of Kanna Village make a desperate decision: hire samurai to wage war.

27 March 2007$2.99

Kirara's Dowsing Crystal found a samurai strong enough to lead them, but he refuses to help. Volunteering instead is the untried Katsushiro, but the Crystal does not point to him.

3The Entertainer (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Entertainer

27 March 2007$2.99

Since the Great War ended, society has been turned upside down. Samurai honor has been replaced by the materialism of the merchants, and displaced warriors must find new ways to survive. For one battle-scarred man, that means entertainment, exploiting his skills for daily bread. But with his real-world approach and adaptability, he may be exactly what the farmers need.

4The Loner (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Loner

27 March 2007$2.99

The group has gotten the Magistrate's attention -- never a good thing. Viewing samurai "relics" as a threat to merchant authority, their scuffle with his son makes a convenient excuse. He orders the group's execution, farmers and samurai alike. As they battle a string of assassins, Kambei encounters one silent, incredibly skilled samurai he is determined to recruit.

5The Drifter (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Drifter

27 March 2007$2.99

Frustrated by their inability to find willing (and capable) samurai, Kambei's group stops at a teashop to recharge.

After the mysterious murder of the Imperial Envoy in the Magistrate's home -- with a bloody sword as the only clue -- a citywide hunt for all samurai begins.

7The Friend (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Friend

27 March 2007$2.99

Will Shichiroji leave his love, and take up his sword again?

8The Guardians (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Guardians

27 March 2007$2.99

The Bandits

27 March 2007$2.99

Kikuchiyo has been foolishly captured by the Bandits, and the samurai must leave the caves to rescue him. But as soon as they reach daylight the towering machines ambush them.

Knowing legions of Nobuseri will be searching for them soon, Kambei decides the group must go to Kanna immediately, though the team of seven is not yet complete.

11The Village (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Village

27 March 2007$2.99

The samurai finally arrive at Kanna Village... and find no one there to greet them. Recent threats from the Bandits have shaken the farmers' resolve, and not all of them want the samurai's help. As the samurai begin their preparations for war, they must confront something even more dangerous: betrayal from the farmers who have hired them.

12The Truth (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Truth

27 March 2007$2.99

Katsushiro has taken a step on the samurai path he can never take back: he's made his first kill. Kirara is guilt-ridden, feeling she's pushed Katsushiro into spilling blood before he was ready. Meanwhile, the village is thrown into an uproar, debating what to do with the traitor, Manzo. Only a surprising revelation from Kikuchiyo can reunite the splintered group.

27 March 2007$2.99

27 March 2007$2.99

The samurai's heroics have won momentary peace for the village, but as Kirara's Dowsing Crystal indicates, much darker clouds are on the horizon.

16The Storm (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Storm

27 March 2007$2.99

Kanna is bombarded by rainfall as the Bandits make their final attack on the village.

In the battle's furious climax, not all of the samurai will survive.

17The Remembrance (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Remembrance

27 March 2007$2.99

With the death of their friend fresh on their minds, the surviving samurai must come to terms with the aftermath of battle. What lies ahead for them now? Is Kanna truly safe?

18The Emperor (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Emperor

27 March 2007$2.99

From the very beginning of this new Era of Merchants, little has been known about the Capital, and the divine ruler who manages this complicated system of control.

19The Mutiny (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Mutiny

27 March 2007$2.99

Kambei's confrontation with the Emperor -- and Rikichi's wife -- has landed him in a prison cell, awaiting his fate as the purported assassin of the Imperial Envoy. But the turmoil at the Capital is far from over. A political whirlwind has engulfed the empire with Ukyo at its center... and the outcome could make him more dangerous than ever before.

20The Execution (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Execution

27 March 2007$2.99

Ukyo's sudden rise to power has put Kambei at his mercy, and mercy is evidently not what this scheming clone has in mind. Kambei will be executed in a public display. Kikuchiyo and Katsushiro's rescue party arrive in the city just in time to hear the news of their leader's scheduled beheading. But can they battle quickly enough to save him?

21The Rescue (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Rescue

27 March 2007$2.99

In an unpredictable mix of heroics and political maneuverings, the rescue team finds a way out of the Capital alive, and takes refuge at the Firefly House. With Kambei pardoned, Sanae and Muzuki freed, and peace promised to Kanna, it seems the samurai's work is done. But the merchant Maro has a warning: the true struggle has only begun.

22The Divide (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Divide

27 March 2007$2.99

Kambei's rescue has created deep rifts between Katsushiro and his sensei. Kambei believes the young samurai was too rash in his attempted heroics, and Katsushiro believes Kambei was arrogant to battle the Capital alone. At a time when every move is critical, with Ukyo's plot rapidly unfolding, can the samurai survive their team being split in two?

23The Lies (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Lies

27 March 2007$2.99

Ukyo is brilliantly playing Kanna's success to his own advantage, calling on ronin samurai to defend other villages from the Bandits, while at the same time secretly ordering the Bandits to increase their attacks on the villages. But to achieve his two-faced goals, Ukyo has one essential caveat. Kanna must be burned to the ground.

24The Oaths (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Oaths

27 March 2007$2.99

Katsushiro, still acting on his own, has returned to Kanna to defend it from the approaching Capital.

Unbeknownst to Katsushiro, Kambei and the rest of the samurai are racing toward the Capital as well, poised for the final showdown.

25The Last Battle (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Last Battle

27 March 2007$2.99

In addition to the Capital's terrifying Mujou Gun, Ukyo has created a fleet of Nobuseri drones -- a mindless army numbering in the thousands that follow his every command. Undaunted by the impossible odds, Kambei drives the samurai directly into the heart of the massive fleet. The ultimate battle for the future of the peasants and the empire has begun.

26The Era's End (Samurai 7) recap, spoilers

The Era's End

27 March 2007$2.99

The explosive fight against the Capital continues, with both sides suffering major losses.
