Samuel L. Jackson (the voice of Afro in the anime) says: “Gotta
figure out a way to get this on the Big Screen!!! My Man Takashi
Okazaki did his thang with this one!” A manga classic that is
essential reading for all fans of the medium and
afro-Japanese-futurism. This is the ultimate boxed set that
collects both volumes of the director’s cut editions, and also
includes two exclusive illustrated art cards! Japan has become a
land of warriors, warlords and assassins, where the technology of
the future exits alongside the brutal traditions of the past. This
world is ruled by whoever possesses the legendary No.1 headband.
When the boy Afro Samurai’s father, Rokutaro, is challenged as
No.1 and killed by the No.2, a lethal outlaw known as Justice, he
swears revenge, starting on a bloody path of retribution that will
make him the No.2 warrior and allow him to challenge Justice.
Volume 1: In the first of two volumes, we see the beginnings of
young Afro’s quest, his battles with an array of assassins and
warlords, that climaxes in the epic confrontation with the powerful
Empty Seven Clan and a showdown with an old enemy… Volume 2:
After having defeated the Empty Seven Clan, Afro is forced to face
a new threat: a deadly warrior who wears a teddy mask called Jinno.
Will his bloodthirsty campaign of vengeance be thwarted, or will he
finally face Justice and claim the number one headband?
