[center][center]To put it simply, Afro Samurai is a kick-ass adults anime. Not only are the fight scenes absolutely BEAUTIFULLY choreographed the plot line ain't too shabby either. To put it simply, whoever wields the 'number 1' headband in this feudal yet futuristic Japan is claimed to be the fiercest fighter. The Afro Samurai is 'number 2' and is fighting for the number 1 headband. The owner of the number 1 headband just happens to be the man who killed Afro Samurai's father.[/center][/center]

[center][center][i]Now an adult, "Afro Samurai" is the current No. 2 and a master swordsman. He travels Japan trying to make his way to the mountain-top keep where Mango awaits. As he makes his way to Mango, he recalls his journey from a frightened young boy to a master samurai. Along the way, many people challenge Afro for his headband, including the "Empty Seven Clan" who send various agents, including a robotic Afro, to kill him throughout his travels. He is also being hunted by his vengeful childhood friend Jinno, who was long thought to be dead. It is revealed that Afro's childhood samurai master became the new No. 2 after Justice killed Afro's father. When Afro confronts his master, they are both attacked by assassins, leading to the death of everyone except Afro and Jinno. Afro eventually defeats Jinno, and finally confronts Justice. Afro learns that there are other headbands in existence, ranging to an unspecified higher number, and sees that the corpses of those who wore them are skewered throughout the room where Justice awaits. Afro defeats Justice and takes the No. 1 headband, and the other headbands disappear.[/i]
