Afro Samurai is a man of few words and little emotion. Afro's alter ego, Ninja Ninja, is supposed to add character and comic relief. Unfortunately, he's really annoying.
The story is your basic: boy sees father killed, boy grows up to avenge father (unfolds in flashbacks), grownup boy overcomes several obstacles with a brief break to bed a girl before the final showdown with the main bad guy.
This miniseries may have been better if it were just straight up Samurai L. Jackson with an AK-47, a purple lightsaber, and snakes.
