Warm Up Songs For A Basketball Game
Lately I ironed the integral of a lively worship me: Samurai 7.
Samurai 7 is actually an animated series that takes a Japanese cult film in Japan
The Seven Samurai directed by Akira Kurosawa in 1954, John Sturges movie that will do a remake better known The Magnificent Seven.
The story is very simple, a small village farmer who grows rice, is seen by extorting money from their crops "thief". The villagers decided to send three people in their headwaters to the neighboring city to hire samurai at that time and since the end of World War no longer have the respect of old, to come and fight the bandits.
That's quite the pitch of the film, the animated series for engineering studio "Gonzo" is actually fighting the mix Samurai sword, and Mecha (the locks are a type of Japanese manga-based humanoid robot such as Gundam, Evangelion, etc.), in this case the "thieves" are former samurais who have made the choice to leave their body for transplant into their souls giant samurai robots, ranging from 3 meters to 50 meters depending grade and their talents samurai time or they had a body.
At first glance it just seems odd that blend of samurai of feudal Japan fighting saber, robots face of advanced technology, now that's timeless.
But the result is fantastic, and the studio has put the means.
output in 2005, studio gonzo have started as budget for an episode double or even triple an episode of another Japanese animation series.
Just as Akira Kurosawa in 1954 or the completion of his film The Seven Samurai
cost has had the time over 300 million yen. The studio Gonzo we meet this desire to empower their ambitions, and graphically the series remains a masterpiece, even today in 2009.
course, the scenario was different again and of course the original film. The characters are endearing
including "Komachi" the little sister of the headwaters "Kirara" which is already small takes of his early affections for "uncle" and his "husband", one of the seven samurai, in is the only one mechanic and of course a little blundering
Kikuchiyo .
The other samurai are really charismatic, first Chief
kambei shimada a veteran wars of the past, the 2nd best group of samurai. ago
Katsushiro which is actually early as Kikuchiyo not recognized as a samurai by the group because "kambei" (the leader) he lacks experience and proof he never fought, but he pressed one of characters that the series will highlight the one who saw it during the 25 episodes will grow the most.
There is of course
Kyuzo groups who take part in the end only to have the opportunity to end his duel with kambei (I will not elaborate, otherwise it would spoil the suspense and tell a bit of thing) Kyuzo is a cold character but also the best group by far. It remains
Gorobei a former samurai of the great wars that uses his talents to his new job "entertainer of crowds," a samurai Heihachi very good at engineering and tactical warfare, Shichiroji former companion Weapon Kambei during the last great wars that he fights with a spear. And of course
Kikuchiyo the mechanical samurai, a great template, very powerful but not very smart and a bit too gung-ho, it will bumblers the group but also one of the most endearing.
All these people will fort has to defy the armies of giant robot samurai and sometimes using firearms, something that the honor code of samurai rejects.
This series consists of 26 episodes (although too short when it pleases). This site
full-metal-mouh.kazeo.com offers the 26 episode direct download via megaupload. Above each episode is in two versions. By default
dialogues will be in French (the dubbing is not bad in the world of Japanese animation often dubs in French are disasters, personally I do not watch anything that is dubbed in French, but I understand that some people not familiar with the captioning may not like).
I recommend the famous player VLC
(click to download) which just toggles the Japanese language and enable the subtitles. If my memory are good:
key
B "to develop Japanese language. key
V "to display subtitles in French. Like every animated
must wait 3 or 4 episodes to really get into the thick of things (like a movie or a scale, we still must see for 20min storyline is well underway)

Kyuzo clearly (sorry for the music ...)
