[105] Reception[edit] The North American DVD release of Samurai Champloo was a commercial success. [106] The final volumes were ranked by Nielsen VideoScan as among the top ten best-selling anime DVDs during mid-January 2006. [107] On review aggregate website Rotten Tomatoes, the anime has a rating of 88% based on eight reviews. [108] The Western home media releases saw positive responses for their visual and sound quality, though a lack of extras was noted. [109][110][111] Tasha Robinson, in a review of the first English DVD release for Sci-Fi Weekly, was concerned about the opening episode's similarity to the set-up for Cowboy Bebop. [3] In a similar review for Play Magazine, Dave Halverson noted his enjoyment of the story but felt readers should see the anime with as little story information as possible. [112] DVDTalk's Todd Douglass noted the simple premise of the story, but enjoyed each episode's plot and praised the interactions of the main cast and its sense of style. [109] Nick Browne of THEM Anime was less positive, faulting its weaker multi-episode stories and uneven treatment of serious cultural issues despite enjoying the humor born from its main cast. [110] Salvan Bonaminio of The Escapist described the main cast as stereotypes, faulted the forgettable supporting cast, and called many episodes including the ending underwhelming. [113] James Beckett of Anime News Network enjoyed the main cast, but negatively cited a lack of cohesion across the series, and strongly criticised Fuu's frequent kidnappings for story purposes as detrimental to her character. [111] Halverson gave praise to the animation and character designs without specific commentary,[112] while Robinson positively compared the fight choreography and art design to Watanabe's work on Cowboy Bebop and The Animatrix.
