Samurai Champloo [Faint Remix]

Video by: Darkmatt3r
Anime: Samurai Champloo
Song: "Faint - Justin Lassen remix" By Linkin Park

Article by Zach Goodier

This amv showcases the final episodes of Samurai Champloo, and there are obvious spoilers that accompany that fact.  But given the age of the show, if you're here, you've probably seen it.  The scenes generally fit the parts of the song you're in; with the action taking place during the chorus, and the slower parts taking place during the slower verses.  If I had to cite one complaint, it would probably be that the timing appears to be very slightly off.  I think this video could have done with a good going over and polishing the scenes and the timing.  This is hardly a reason to avoid watching, however.  This is still a very well done amv with a great song that fits the scenes used from the show.  The biggest strength this AMV has is that it uses a musical style very akin to the style the show was based around, so the whole thing appears to be a natural fit.  Don't just take my word for it, however, just watch and decide for yourselves.

AMV Rating: 8.5 out of 10
