Didn't he do two Animatrix shorts?

Wow, can't wait for this one. Watanabe + Samurai Action = Awesome (Hopefully). Expectations are going to be high! But if we've learned anything from Cowboy Bebop, he can deliver.

I think he did the Detective Story Animatrix short - the one where the spoiler[detective meets Trinity]. In addition to being included on the Animatrix disc, it was also on the extra disc that came the The Enter the Matrix video game. I thought that was one of the best of the collection. I don't know how to describe it, but I really liked the style.

Smile There is an exclusive in-depth interview with Shinichirou Watanabe in the Anime Play Bi-Monthly Interactive Mag. (Sept03) wherein he talks about Bebob, Animatrix, and Samurai Champloo. He calls his latest project a "Hip-Hop Historical Samurai Drama..." Cool

... I think I may have a favorite anime here. *snickers* I'm a sucker for samurai stuff. And then it's by the great Watanabe-sensei.

If this series can do for hip hop what Cowboy Bebop did for jazz, then I'll be happy. I'm definitely looking forward to this.
