Summary:
In the far distant future, on a planet that might have been called "earth", there was a war between samurai who mechanized their bodies. After the long war, people enjoyed a modest peace.
Facing starvation and abductions at the hands of fearsome mechanized bandits (Nobuseri), the farmers of Kanna Village make the dangerous choice to hire samurai for protection. The village's water priestess, Kirara, her younger sister, Komachi, and a heartbroken villager, Rikichi, set off to hire willing samurai with nothing to offer but rice from their meager harvests. Through dangerous encounters and a bit of luck, seven samurai of varying specialties and experience are gathered for an epic battle against the bandits and the merchants that influence them.
Samurai 7 is based loosely upon Kurosawa Akira's famous movie "Seven Samurai"/"Shichinin no Samurai"
after just finishing this anime my self, i will highly recommend this anime for those who likes a good action anime with a caring story. the story itself is good. but it can drag on a bit at the start. but the detail of the anime works up for it at this part of it. since it pays good attention to details and the art work on the surroundings is excellent. the anime jumps a bit between the characters. but not enough to lose focus of what the other characters are up to. the anime focus a lot on morals of whats right and wrong. and pulls it off well. the dialog is well enough to make u attached to the different characters. and that in turn will bring your smiles, chuckles, laughs and tears. the action sequences are well made. with nice moves and high tempo fights.
this anime comes high on my list of witch anime to watch.
