+Repper Its season 3 episode 2 titled "The Red Ball" and its glorious. They also parodied the final 3 episode of Champloo in an episode titled "Stinkmeaner 3: The Hateocracy"
Jerry Harway the thing about this anime is that the music is far unique than those you’ve pointed out, and this show actually shows more emotional feels than any of those (laughter, sadness, anger, relief), Samurai champloo is far 100x more better than the “bullshit” you pointed out, so do all of us a favor and shut the hell up.
People played like total dicks in early baseball. And football. And American football. It's why we have so many rules about what you CAN'T do. People did everything they could think of, which is a lot of stuff. You get people playing a sport and they will come up with all kinds of heinous things you wouldn't think of to do to mess with the other team and generally win. Even with our current "don't slide into people, they could get HURT" style, people are always pushing it and being obnoxious strategically. Why? It wins ballgames.
One of the things i love about the character dynamics in this show is how every time its out of Jin's hands it falls to Mugen and his backward savagery 🤣
@@robertharris6092 Americans are fairly racist/stereotypical in their media, but they're the only people in the world that constantly cry and complain when it's done to them
Omfg this is so over the top XD "I DIE WITH NO REGRETS B)" And to say those American baseball players are a ridiculous stereotype would be an understatement XD
God this episode was so fricking funny I loved it when it went ding showing they died too fricking funny hey you skipped half of the baseball game like when fuu was up to bat and the dog who ran away. Hahahah
@@DrunkenDarkSoul I'm quite sure that Funimation had the permission to use the same music as the sub. I've never heard of the SamCham dub having music censored before. They even got to use "El Nino" from Olive Oil (the music that plays when Mugen is throwing the ball and taking out the Americans)
Boondocks started back in 1999 as a comic, before Samurai Champloo was released. Not only that, but the creator of Boondocks, Aaron McGruder, was influenced by anime in general.
AstroPopo a lot of the original music was cut out probably due to budget or Internationale legal matters and I think the fancy pitch didnt make sense without the music so it got cut too. "Aurain dance" played a little but my favorite "Feather" is not in the English version of this episode. nor was "Fly"
Joe Pecina I've actually never watched the original Japanese dub for this, I own the English version and those fancy pitches are certainly still there, along with the accompanying music. I was just wondering why the uploader of this video would choose to cut it out, because I can't think of any reasons to do so.
Double-Day: God, help us. This isn't baseball anymore, this is.........MADNESS!!! Me: Madness?! Nah, mutha fucka. THIS. IS. JAPAN AND MUGEN, GOD DAMN IT! Fuck's wrong with you?!
Lmaoo I don’t even watch the show. My teacher showed us this when we’re learning about Japan XD. It was supposed to show cultural differences but I laughed my ass off
You know, to set records straight, this takes place in edo japan, which isn't anywhere close to modern day time. Colonization back then was nothing but a greedy practice.
The fact they resorted to making episodes about a mushroom trip and baseball, makes me think they were running out of ideas. The story was already complete. Haha
I would play a video game like this. Baseball, but you're also sometimes trying to annihilate the other players. "Did you get the baseball ending or the killing ending?"
got to add in the time it was when we was at war with japan maybe a bit before or after but around that time so it would make sense that we would be that way giving the fact we are that way with Muslims in usa
Its probably supposed to be similar since the creator of The Boondocks said that one of his main inspirations was Samurai Champloo (As well as Cowboy Bebop).

Best filler episode ever in any anime.
Petyr Wilson I am 3 years late and maybe I'm feeling nostalgic, but the DBZ Goku and Piccolo driving filler episode is on par with this in my opinion.
Brandon K. Funny enough, dragon ball super almost had a baseball episode.
This isn't filler
Neotokyo vibes your right, this is canon
@@YaBoiDREX What do you mean "almost", it straight up did.
As an American this is the most hilarious portrayal of my fellow Americans I've ever seen.
Better in Japanese dub
How does this anime knows American culture? It's what Rickettes said from Red Dead redemption. "What a great way to prove border relation."
I love how this possibly could of happened long ago on some random day in ancient japan with a bunch of random folks we'll never know anything about.
For one, the Spanish Jesuits visited Japan ap who knows what foreign things were introduced to Japan.

This is not ancient.
im an american but i have to admit this was pretty fucking funny
Ikr
Im from chile and makes me laught too... Maybe theres no much difference
Jin is always “Ashamed” when he fails 😂😂
When you compare this and The Boondock's "Red Ball", you can see the heavy inspiration from this show.
The writers worked together on both episodes
This reminds me so much The Boondocks kickball episode.
+Rudou Cruz The creators of the Boondocks admit to this Episode of Samurai Champloo being the inspiration for the Dodge ball Episode.
@@ShamanMcLamie You mean kick ball episode.
Lol Boondocks parodied this episode!

Right. Huey. was. better. tho

God help us, this isn't baseball anymore... THIS IS MADNESS...
Samurai Champloo is the best anime the ever graced the screen!!
Bullshit. I've seen anime 100x better like Black Lagoon, Death Note, and Samurai X: Trust & Betrayal.
Jerry Harway yeah? and why the fuck are you even watching this clip?
Shut the fuck up, Jerry. You butt-hurt little fuck.

This always cracks me up the way that mugen raises his leg before he pitches and how he goes from 0 to badass in a split second is hysterical
Mugens little foot arc brings me life
i didnt know that baseball was a deadly sport in anime lol

3:23 when the tree fell, always brings me to tears!
a lot of people dont know this but the episode is actually 100% historically accurate and all this actually happened
Madness? THIS IS JAPAAAAAAAAAAN!
3:56: Madness? THIS. IS. MUGEN!!!
1:55 araurian dance, always a great track to set the mood
one of the best episodes of Samurai Champloo. Funny as hell!

I almost died laughing with this episode.
"Monzo is dead! But freedom will never die! ugghh"
This is the most intense baseball game I've ever seen
love how jin uses the bat as a sword LOL
3:38 -“The new mortal kombat looks amazing”
MUGEN WINS!
*BEANBALL..*
Not gonna lie I'm jealous of Mugen's inhuman strength pitches.
Never thought that having Aurian dance in the background while people are getting hurt was so satisfying
so this is where the boondocks got it from
Yup Yup Yup! The story board artist for a lot of the eps of Boondocks loves Bebop and Champloo.
This episode was so great.
Did anybody else cry at 2:48?
+Akrahm Joltevskoy hi
I. have. no regrets
XD
You're out ! Lol
Perfect song for that moment
You know why you are here. GG Japan
that corpse scene had me soo much!! 😂😂😂
Yeah that old man had a few seconds of screen time and made the entire episode 😂
i love how the boondocks got there idea for the kickball episode from this is just shows how great an anime this is

this episode is way funnier in japanese. its not even preference.

so much of the awesome music was cut out too!
@@DrunkenDarkSoul music was cut in the English version? I'll have to rewatch them both and compare soon.
@@davidgn40 not all of the music but a the songs that would require permission from additional artists.

heavily influenced :D it makes both champloo and boondocks even more awesome

Why cut out the break dance pitches?
AstroPopo
a lot of the original music was cut out
probably due to budget or Internationale legal matters
and I think the fancy pitch didnt make sense without the music
so it got cut too.
"Aurain dance" played a little
but my favorite "Feather" is not in the English version of this episode.

one of the best episodes
masterpiece of an episode
American: God help us! this isn't baseball anymore....this is MADNESS!
Mugen: MADNESS?! THIS...IS..EDO!!!!
This is how it had to be.
I'm all for my country, but not when they're going to be bastards about it.
Kick his ass Mugen!
I'd really love to see a collab show done by the creators of Champloo and Boondocks, would be insanely fucking good.
Best episode of the series :P

I agree, what is the name of that song?
I have been trying to track it down online : D
Thanks
@@dstreamerii3958 maybe Aruarian Dance
Dstreamer II yea it’s araurian dance
Twenty One Punch do u guys no know the song before that one when Jin was hitting the ball?
This scene is the great every time I think about samurai champloo, I always remember this scene.
"God help us! This isn't baseball anymore! This is madness!" Says the guy whose team decided to play dirty.
wow. Normally I don't like baseball, but if ever game was as epic as this, I'd watch it a bit more.
Watch One Outs. You'll like it.
it's so awesome how mugen is so scrawny yet takes out a tree with a baseball,
Best baseball game I have ever seen :) !
This was my favorite episode from SC.
Lmaoo I don’t even watch the show. My teacher showed us this when we’re learning about Japan XD. It was supposed to show cultural differences but I laughed my ass off
that KO sound make me wanna play monster hunter
The dead bodies on the ground next to the field get me every time
the best part is that right before this passage starts, the narators says "the american regrouped to find a new stategy"
one of my favorite episodes
omg, I can watch it again and again. First was Cowboy Bebop. Now this. Damn, this was so MANLY!
i love it how the tree in the background goes down^^
congrats to Japan for winning gold this year
Possibly my favorite episode in anime
I think of this everytime I watch Boondocks, The Red Ball episode~
when baseball turns deadly
best ep yet
Not even a contest, this game is in the bag
xD Jin was doing so well! then just "I am ashamed" *ding*
what is the beat when mugan starts to pitch? that shi is fucking insane!
After all Samurai Champloo OSTs and searching... I still can't find the background track that starts at 3:20
OMG THIS EPISODE is so amazing xD!!
THIS ISN'T BASEBALL ANYMORE THIS IS MADNESS
MADNESS ? THIS IS SPARTAAAAAA
"I...am ashamed..*faint* XDD
Ohh poor Jin.

Anyone know the theme at 0:51 when Jin went up to bat?
Chrono Z if I help you will you sub to me plz
ANYWAY ITS SAMURAI CHAMPLOO-FLIP
i like how the scare crow's eyes are looking at the batter
2:35 Why did that guy had to break his baseball bat? And I cannot believe he hit the ball as the bat broke into pieces and charged into the pitcher! 😮
Did you know the creator of Boondocks was inspired to make the TV series in response to seeing the success of Samurai Champloo?
Dude. Why has no one pared up that final scene with the GUILE THEME!
INTERNET! GET ON IT ASAP!
Why you think there was so many fights in baseball.
I remember thinkin Jinn actually died. Made me confused and sad.
Love how the contest is decided by last standing player
I love how nujabes song gets randomly played
It's not random, it fits with the scene
This is my favorite anime episode from any anime of all time
Best soundtrack ever.
