| Summary: |
In the far distant future, on a planet that might have been called "earth", there was a war between samurai who mechanized their bodies. After the long war, people enjoyed a modest peace.
Facing starvation and abductions at the hands of fearsome mechanized bandits (Nobuseri), the farmers of Kanna Village make the dangerous choice to hire samurai for protection. The village's water priestess, Kirara, her younger sister, Komachi, and a heartbroken villager, Rikichi, set off to hire willing samurai with nothing to offer but rice from their meager harvests. Through dangerous encounters and a bit of luck, seven samurai of varying specialties and experience are gathered for an epic battle against the bandits and the merchants that influence them.
Samurai 7 is based loosely upon Kurosawa Akira's famous movie "Seven Samurai"/"Shichinin no Samurai" |

This is a genuinely good anime, i remember watching it long ago when it was first released and wanted to watch again. It does drag a bit in the beginning and near the end mainly due to need to build story for the remaining episodes. However the it is not the easist story to understand.
It starts with a small peasant village named Kanna Village seeking samurai to defend and drive off the bandits that rob the peasant villages yearly. The find 7 of them and bring them back and fight. The story builds and declines during this time because even after this goal is accomplished there is still more to the series.
The story does tend to focus on the samurai mainly and their growth as individuals as well as changing the ways of the world for the better.

If you can imagine Yuri on Ice! meets Holmes of Kyoto, then this is it. Slow paced but gripping. Boy-Love but not distasteful...
