You're in for a treat. This was the ONE show I was comfortable with beating X-Men 97 for the Emmy.
UGH!!! FINALLY!!! But was really hoping for a larger couch crew for this one. It really is AMAZING!!! The animation style is brilliant...I love how they used REAL actors & stuntmen for the foundation of the animation. The story is awesome. The acting is fantastic. This literally was one of the best shows of the past year or so.
This show brought me back to anime cause it's really THAT good.
You guys are not ready for this incredible series! And I am excited about this journey!!
This is easily one of the best shows that came out recently. Great choice
I agree
this show got me to restart my Patreon. You guys did not disappoint
Same
I have to admit, I wasn't expecting much from this series when I first started watching it. But by the end I was dying for season 2, also was happy to hear it got nominated and won!! Really hope you guys enjoy this show as much as I did........and good luck with the editing for TH-cam 😂😂
Moral of the episode: Peaches. 🍑
I love this animation style so much. I'm glad it has mature themes, like an R-rated Arcane. The action choreography is so good!
People get it confused often but you mean art style, not animation style. Art style is how the characters and backgrounds look. Animation is how they actually move, their motions.
@@jager3090 Yeah, It's more so the art style that I see some similarities. When it comes to animation style, I prefer Arcane.
Glad to see the reaction to this show!
The Showrunner for Blue Eye Samurai is Michael Green; he's done a ton of cool shows and movies. He wrote Bladerunner 2049, Logan, one of my favorite shows that only got a single season: Kings (2009)! He was also a writer for Heroes and a bunch of other stuff, really looking forward to more reactions from you guys!
YESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Easily one of my favorite series of the year it premiered. The characterization and arc of each of the characters is incredible.
As Suraj said, although the characters' paths are familiar, there are enough surprises which makes the series a delight to watch.
The type of animation, the fight choreography and other aspects make it a fantastic binge.
Excited to watch this show again. Nothing but quality all through.
Between Arcane, Blue Eye Samurai and Scavengers Reign we've been spoiled with meticulously made, god-tier animated shows for adults. If anyone reads this and has other recs, plz let me know.
And Castlevania !!!! ^^^
Not sure if it counts as god tier, but Twilight of the Gods just dropped on Netflix and it's pretty decent!
(Norse mythology based adult animation revenge story)
@@GoldenPhoenix101twillight of the gods definitely was surprisingly fun and enjoyable to watch they def should watch it too.
And Pantheon, but no one has seen Pantheon despite it being a masterpiece.
dunno about Arcane. Vox Machina would do better in that spot.
Nah this show is fucking goated. Episode 5 doe 👀…. Very much making the Patreon worth for me 😂
Oh yeah man, I am *seated* for this one. Ep 5 is arguably the best episode of television in human history, as far as I'm concerned. Let's do it.
I'm laughing SOOOO hard at your reaction to the dojo fight. HAHAHAHA
Dear Suraj,
The Samurai Trilogy. Directed by Hiroshi Inagaki.
1954-1956. Slightly dated, but the look, feel, costumes, and story still hold up. It's a biopic about the greatest duelist in Japanese history… Musashi Miyamoto.
Don't let your bias against older movies stop you from experiencing great things. I saw this for the first time in 2021. Wish I'd seen the trilogy way sooner.
With love,
WP
all i have to say is this came out right around that time when netflix caught wave of how animation was getting received and the execution for this show just goes up and up and up. 8 weeks of gas
Oh yall are gonna love this
I LOVE THIS SHOWWWWW! been begging people to watch since it came out! glad you guys caught on 💕
Wow! I can’t believe you guys haven’t reacted to this amazing masterpiece of animated series!
But so happy that you are now 😁
that fire from 2023....boom!
Can’t believe I binge watched this like a week ago and y’all are dropping reactions: the stars have aligned
An impurity in the right place is a quality.
- Sword Father
Love that you're reacting to this great show
Forging swords still happens, Sir Terry Pratchett forged his own sword when he was knighted, he dug up his own ore, learned to smelt, added a meteorite ore and forged it all by himself. Per UK Knife laws he put it away somewhere safe ofc.
Blue Eye Samurai is great, oh so violent too, but a visual spectacle.
lol i just made a moment about this as well
This show was seriously the best show of 2023 for me.
I live for this show it’s so good I can’t wait for season two!!!
Sir. Terry Pratchett was knighted with a sword he made (at least partly) from a meteorite.
I don't know how you guys are going to stretch this over 2 months cause this show was made for binging.
43:48 THE ONLY SHANG TSUNG!!
Oh, this is gonna be great!
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES I've been waiting forever to have Blind Wave hop on this show and as per usual the Normies swoosh in and start greatness yet again.
"Has anyone forged a sword out of a meteorite?" Off the top of my head: Terry Pratchett did.
Yeah I’m so seated it’s crazy
Chris out here dropping it on the glass from the jump with a big ole thump. Bruh is talking about PERFECTION after episode 1 and letting everyone know just how big & girthy it is. But he's absolutely right. I think everyone can pretty much agree that Breaking Bad is about one of the most perfect series ever made. Well, I think the last time I checked Blue Eye Samurai was beating Breaking Bad on Rotten Tomatoes (critic AND viewers).
So yeah, buckle up guys cause you are ABSOLUTELY about to begin a Breaking Bad level of a journey. Seriously, I'm getting so upset that it's taken ya'll THIS long to get around to it. And why just the smol couch crew? This show deserves the full crew. Like this show is SOOOOOOOOOOO good you should be bringing back Micky & Mikey, Ben & Hannah, White Pat, Nahid, Boh, Preeti, the hippie couple, and other Normies from the past.
I used to pray for times like these.
People should watch Rurouni Kenshin, the anime, the old one. Many of the fights in Blue Eye Samurai reminded me of the fights in RK. The 5 movies live-action are also awesome.
Sir Terry Pratchet, an amazing fantasy writer, had a sword made from a meteorite after he was knighted because he felt a knight needed a sword
Interestingly enough, this takes place during the 17th century Edo period, and the first settlement of the area that would become New York city occured in 1624.
top tier everything in this show, season 2 coming too! glad y’all are watching!!
I forgot how damn good this show is. What stuck with me was the story, the animation, and the acting. But I forgot how amazing the soundtrack & sound design is. The choreography of the stunts, the set designs....basically everything that it takes in creating a show is just S++ tier stuff.
This show is so damn good that I'm getting pissed off all over again that it's taken The Normies THIS long to get around to it. And I am very disappointed that we're not getting a larger couch crew. Rana & Spidey should be right there.
Whelp, Oct 2 and 9 are going to be lit. This series is a 10/10.
Arcane, Spider-Verse (1 and especially 2), and this show have me genuinely excited to see where artists are going to take animation. They're not only beautiful, but also incorporate the medium into the storytelling in creative ways that make being a "cartoon" a real asset. These feel fresh and innovative, and it's awesome to have that creativity hand-in-hand with awesome characters and plotlines. Can't wait for the rest of these reactions and (eventually) Season 2.
That dueling scene at the end of the episode absolutely & totally hooked me onto this series. I just effing love the way that she could predict the outcomes based off of the stance & positioning and what she must do to counter what he intends to do. And then they pay it off by making it short & sweet like most Samurai duels would've been.
That was just a chef's kiss moment of storytelling right there. Able to draw out the tension of this moment, give us a little more action, and then pay it off. But also giving us insight into our protagonist...she's so damn good she can predict her opponents moves.
Also, fun fact. The showrunner is a storyboard artist and has worked on Game of Thrones in that capacity. Her husband happens to be one of the directors for the GRRMverse. I think he did the episode before The Long Night where Brienne gets knighted and then has done episodes for HotD. And she's done the storyboard work for those episodes. But then took her artistry and storytelling to do this project.
And a brilliant project too. One reason I wanted YOU guys specifically to react to this series is because I figured many of you would relate to the story. Being seen as an outsider in your own country/culture....like how ya'll aren't "Indian enough" for your family back home and ya'll aren't "white enough to be American". I felt like ya'll would really enjoy that aspect to this story....along with EVERYTHING about this show being immaculate. I know the showrunner wanted to tell a story like that for having grown up the same way...mixed Asian race in America. Not Asian enough for her extended family. Not white enough to be accepted in America.
The soundtrack, the sound design, the animation styles, the direction, the editing, the "set designs" (cause yes, they actually built sets and shot on locations for this series)....god, I'm just drowning in jealousy seeing ya'll get to enjoy this show for the 1st time. It really is THAT good where it's basically mind-blowing stuff.
Blue Eye Samurai and Silo were my top shows last year.
Is Marketa…glowing? Beautiful. 👏🏾
Thank you for watching my favorite show :') enjoy
Oooh yes, I've been waiting for this 😌
Suraj I can't believe you didn't recognize Ringo's voice actor. Masi Oka played Hiro from Heroes 😮
Yeah, I was flooded when I found that out. I LOVED him in Heroes! Also the Princess's attendant is George Takei
Ah, the Full Metal Four react to Blue Eye Samurai....you sunavabish Im in!
I'm looking forward to Chris freaking out to a certain song in a later episode.
YES Finally, I ❤this series
Oh hell yeah, let's goooo!!
Maaan he grew his hair out of looking like those Gurus who gives *special* spiritual cleansing 😅
ngl i was hoping The Legend of Vox Machina was next in line
So is this per week release? Need to know so I can plan to watch y’all react to Episode 5
Hell yeah brothers!
You guys should do an oldie and react to Heroes.
By the time you get to the fights in the later episodes, everything she did to those men in that dojo is gonna look like a friendly sparring competition by comparison. And Ringo is one of the best side characters in any project I’ve watched in the past few years. His comedy power only increases. He is also voiced by the Japanese actor who played the Time traveler in the show heroes.
Nice! Now next, SHOGUN?
X-Men 97 or Solo Leveling plllzzzzzzz, but this is a great show. Can't wait for season 2!
there gonna react to xmen. put it's gonna be on twitch and it's gonna come out on TH-cam October.
Second the solo leveling shout
19:29 other way around then eventually the legend Kurosawa arrived on scene around 1960
About time you guys....
Chris and Marketa have a cat named Bodie!!!
it was believed in ancient japan that women were not allowed to be a blacksmith
Sounds like these guys need to watch Shogun if they haven't already
Shogun was so good I took a trip to Japan in August just to see cool castles and the culture
@@CoutureThug Yes. It was VERY good. Surprisingly entertaining and educational.
finallyyy
45:00 it’s pretty perfect
Great show, but still waiting for that 'Legend of Vox Machina' D&D show reaction (Season 3 just came out).
When is the X-Men 97 reaction coming out?
Yess!!! YA-TA!!! 😂😂🎉🎉😂😂 I'm so happy
Welcome to one of the coolest shows otg.
That's a great description
Kill bill
But Japanese, and Animated.
Heck yeah!🔥
Marketa
PEACHES PEACHES PEACHES I......LOOOOOOOOVE YOOOOOOOOU.....YEAAAAAA
Bruh. You cannot predict this story.
Yo this show is fire!
Dont be ashamed. I just made it to the halfway of blue eye Samurai
Welcome to a tale of revenge for... having a mixed heritage.
banger show!
The opposite racism when she gets to london should be wild.
Don’t comment spoilers. They haven’t even reacted to the last episode yet on Patreon
"I've never seen animation like this before" ...It's mo-capped CGI with basic animation on the faces. Like what Vox Machina does with the dragons. But a whole show.
Awesome 😊
wait a fucking second, Marketa is pregnant?!...also this show i'ts amazing
Peaches!
this series is slap. kinda remind me of lady snowblooad. i think this series got several emmys
finally!
Peaches.
Oh fuck yes
YES🎉❤
Is there a pull you guys do for what you want to watch? From is really good
Good first episode, but was the reveal that she is a woman really supposed to be a twist? It was played like one, but everybody and their mother saw it from a mile away... So that felt like a letdown. The rest was great.
The reason it doesn't feel woke is because it's actually written well. Show is badass.
Peaches
I don't even like anime and I like this show!
this isn’t anime, just animated!
HOLY CRAP guys.... why so annoying the first five minutes??!? Gawd 🙄 that was so weird...
