Plot summary

The TV anime series is set in a "futuristic, yet feudal Japan," and stars a samurai named Afro for his hair. The story follows Afro as he tries to avenge his father's murder.^[8] In the world of Afro Samurai, it is said that the one who becomes "Number One", will rule the world, wielding powers akin to a god. Someone becomes Number One by killing the previous Number One and taking his ceremonial headband. However, the only rule in this world is that only the "Number Two" (also designated by a sacred headband) is allowed to fight the "Number One." The downside of this is that anyone (and typically everyone) can challenge and try to kill the Number Two, to gain the right to move forward and challenge Number One. Afro Samurai's father was the old Number One, until he was challenged by a gunman, "Justice" (who was then Number Two), who fought him in a duel to become the new Number One. At the time the gunman challenged his father, Afro had only been a child. The gunman severed his father's head right in front of the young Afro. Now an adult, Afro Samurai is the current Number Two and a master swordsman; he travels the road seeking revenge on Justice, the current Number One.^[9]

Character histories

Main Characters

Afro Samurai

Adult Afro Voiced by: Samuel L. Jackson
Adolescent Afro Voiced by: Phil LaMarr
Child Afro Voiced by: Crystal Scales
The former holder of the title "Number Two," Afro is out to hunt down Justice, the man who killed his father for the rank of "Number One." From the time he was a child, Afro honed his skills as a swordsman; his style typically consists of wielding his sword with only his right hand while his left continues to hold on to his sheath, although during his fight with Jinno, he held his sword with both hands to compensate for Jinno's dual wielding speed. He is a very quiet individual, likely because the life of the "Number Two" does not allow him to have any close relationships with anyone, so when approached by others he says very little, if anything. Although he seems cold, he is still haunted by his memories and past relationships; Justice later remarks that Afro, like his father, is still "soft inside." He also has a fondness for lemonade. At the end of the series, he kills Justice and becomes the "Number One." “Samuel Jackson” redirects here. ...

Ninja Ninja

Voiced by: Samuel L. Jackson
"Ninja" is Afro's complete antithesis, always speaking and usually saying aloud what Afro can't bring himself to say; generally, Afro refuses to respond to anything he says. Ninja Ninja speaks in stereotypical African American Vernacular English, with frequent use of profanity. As his name implies, he dresses in a ninja motif. He also seems to have a counter color scheme to Afro, while also having a similar frame and hair cut though he slouches when he walks. This can best be seen at the end of episode 2, where they are walking side by side after the fire. There are several clues throughout the show that point to Ninja Ninja being imaginary, such as Afro being the only one who speaks to him, his constant disappearing when Afro is not in combat or internal conflict, and the fact he is not hurt when Afro and him are knocked off a cliff by an RPG despite being next to each other. It is later shown in Episode 4 that Ninja Ninja first appeared suddenly when Afro lost his friends and loved ones while obtaining the Number Two headband. At the beginning of Episode 5, it is revealed that Ninja Ninja was the one that was "killed" by Kuma's strike; a symbolic way of showing that Afro has come to terms with the loss of his friends at this point in his journey. Also about halfway through the episode when Afro finally meets Justice again, Justice states that he watched him shed his imaginary friend (Ninja). Some people believe Ninja is a coward and simply hides when Afro is in combat. But that still does not explain why Afro is the only one who talks to him. It is worth noting that when Afro is being spied on by the Empty 7, Ninja is visible in the binoculars.

In the collector's DVD, interviews with the staff and writers concede that Ninja Ninja is indeed imaginary.

Rokutaro (Afro's Father)

Voiced by: Greg Eagles
Rokutaro was the Number One at the beginning of the series, who lost his title and life to Justice. How he attained the Number One headband, what he did during his time as Number One, and how long he'd had it prior to Justice killing him remain unclear. According to Justice, it was Rokutaro's intention to end the headband wars by hiding the Number One headband but, people kept fighting and killing each other to possess the other headbands. So Justice saw the only way to stop the fighting forever was to have all the headbands, thus killing Rokutaro for the Number One. Greg Eagles is the voice actor for Peter Stillman in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and is also the voice actor for the DARPA Chief Donald Anderson and the Ninja under the name George Byrd. ...

Otsuru/"Okiku"

Okiku Voiced by: Kelly Hu
Otsuru Voiced by: Tara Strong
A young woman who specializes in the art of healing, Otsuru is an excellent cook and adores fireworks. She is the one who discovered Afro in the shrine after he lost the Number Two headband as a boy, and took him to Sword Master's dojo where he befriended Jinno. When she is introduced as "Okiku," she has once again found Afro in a bad way (having been blown off a cliff by an RPG fired by Brother 6); she bandages him and takes him to her home to heal. Apparently, some time after the events at Sword Master's dojo, she became an agent working for Brother 1 of the Empty 7 clan; assigned to copy Afro's memories for his unique combat techniques. She was also supposed to kill him should the opportunity ever present itself, but she finds herself unable to after spending a night with him. She remarks that she still thinks of him as the same innocent boy she knew so long ago, revealing to him that she is actually Otsuru. Brother 2 of the Empty 7 then kills her for failing to carry out her mission and betraying the Empty 7.

Sword Master

Voiced by: TC Carson
A one-eyed samurai who housed orphans and trained them to become warriors. When a young Afro first approaches him about the headbands, he receives a beating and is told by Sword Master that wearing the headbands leads to a life of murder, saying "We are born men in order to live, not to kill". Afro asks about the headbands again at dojo graduation, after hearing a rumor about Sword Master holding the Number Two Headband. The two meet alone underneath the Bodhi Tree outside the dojo, where Sword Master tells Afro he meant to take the secret to his grave. He then tells Afro to make a decision: forget avenging his father's death and live a normal life, or walk the path of the Number Two. When a large group of thugs in search of the Number Two headband attacks the dojo, Sword Master fights them to show Afro just what it means to be Number Two. After the battle is over, with all the thugs and most of the students dead, he allows Afro to kill him for the headband. Terrence Carson, also known as T. C. Carson (born November 19, 1969 in Chicago, Illinois), is an African-American singer and stage, film, and television actor. ...

Sasuke

Voiced by: Jason Marsden
A teenage student of Sword Master, and a friend to both Afro and Jinno. He wears a pair of glasses which are held to the face by string, similar to those worn in feudal Japan and late dynastic China. Though he graduated from swordsman school at the same time as Afro and Jinno, his skills are quite inferior to theirs (though he is seen killing two people in his final battle). During a flashback in the fourth episode, he is killed in the Midnight Battle Under The Bodhi Tree after being impaled from behind. Jason Christopher Marsden (born January 3, 1975 in Providence, Rhode Island, USA) is an American screen and voice actor largely known for numerous voice roles in animated films, as well as various television series. ...

The Empty 7

Brothers 1 & 3 Voiced by: Phil LaMarr
Brother 2 Voiced by: John DiMaggio
The Empty 7 (無無坊主) are seven monks who believe that attaining both ancient headbands will lead to immortality and godhood. They employ robots and mercenaries to do their dirty work, since the monks themselves have greatly inferior skills when compared to Afro and Justice. Their leaders, Brothers 1 through 5, look almost identical: wizened old men with long beards, dressed in robes. Brother 6 is a large, brutish-looking man with a backpack full of weapons (and it can also store the other Empty 7 members in it). Brother 7 is a round, stubby robot with multiple limbs who was shown building Afro Droid near the end of episode 1, and also rebuilt Jinno. Each of the Empty 7 wields their own weapons or has their own martial arts moves in battle: Brother 1 has a cybernetic left hand which doubles as a machine gun, Brother 4 wields a staff, Brother 5 wields a sword, Brother 6 uses explosive weapons and a staff. As of the third episode, Brothers 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 are dead after their final battle with Afro. Brother 3 is last seen chanting Hachimaki o kudasai, Japanese for "headband please" in a Southern US accent while attempting to serve Afro Samurai tea and rice before he fights with brother 6. Afro refuses and Ninja Ninja takes the tea and rice instead (that scene with Brother 3 was in the director's cut DVD). Brother 7, who never fought Afro directly, most likely lived on to rebuild Jinno to become the new Number Two, as Jinno is shown alive at the end of the final episode. Phillip Phil LaMarr (born January 24, 1967) is an American actor, comedian and prolific voice actor as well as one of the original cast members on the sketch comedy series MADtv. ... John William DiMaggio (born September 4, 1968) is an American voice actor. ...

Afro Droid

A semi-sentient robot copy of Afro Samurai created by the Empty 7 Clan (specifically Brother 7). It was created from combat data siphoned from Afro's mind by Okiku, and is able to reproduce all of his learned techniques and abilities. It is physically superior to Afro, and its external appearance is identical. The Afro Droid is also equipped with guns, lasers, and explosives. Afro eventually defeats Afro Droid in the third episode after the droid is impaled on its own sword following a sky-high, mid-air duel between the two.

Jinnosuke/"Kuma"

Voiced by: Yuri Lowenthal
A swordsman that wears a cybernetic teddy bear mask in embarrassment because of a large deformity imposed on him, earning him the nickname "Kuma" which means "Bear" in Japanese. Jinnosuke possesses great skill in wielding twin blades and is an old acquaintance of Afro from his days at the dojo. Back then Jinno thought of Afro as a brother, but when Afro killed their master for the Number Two headband, Jinno vowed vengeance against him. His eyes consistently weep due to the injuries he suffered at the Midnight Battle Under the Bodhi Tree; he tells Afro that his tears have never stopped falling since that day. Jinno was rebuilt with cybernetic body modifications by the Empty 7 to "create a samurai of incredible power." Afro defeats him by destroying his life-support system, but it seems Kuma was again able to cheat death. He returns to challenge Afro years after the death of Justice, this time his body completely modified, appearing more android than human and virtually mummified in multiple headbands. Kuma also regained his teddy bear mask, this time with the Number Two headband covering the right eye. Yuri Lowenthal (born on March 5, 1971 in Alliance, Ohio) is a voice actor that has voiced several anime and video game characters. ...

Justice

Voiced by: Ron Perlman
The holder of the Number One headband for most of the series, Justice is the man who killed Afro's father before his eyes many years ago. He is a remarkably skilled gunman, dressing in a cowboy garb with the Number One headband tied around his wide-brimmed hat. He has discolored, diseased-looking skin, which his bio on the official site implies is the result of a past accident (undecided, but assumed by the creators to have been submerged in toxic waste). He also has a third arm hidden on his back that holds a sword for catching opponents off guard (in an earlier version of the official website, Justice was described as "The Gunman with Three Arms"). His origins are unknown, but he claims that destiny designed him to attain all the headbands and thus, gain enough power to rule the world as a god and bring an end to all the violence and killing via force. Justice was able to survive being nearly decapitated (an ironic reversal of the scene with Afro's father), and seemed able to control the Number One's throne room to some extent, but Afro manages to defeat him by slicing his body into many smaller pieces. Even this may not have finished him, however; right before the final episode's credits roll, Justice is seen opening his eyes, his grin showing before quickly fading to black (though this may have been symbolic of his views of the battles never ending which were being touched upon as Afro and Jinno fight again). For the business executive, see Ronald Perelman. ...

During interviews in the DVD release, it is implied that Justice and Afro's father were in fact part of the same clan of swords men and indeed best friends, however their differing views on the headbands and how to end the violence plaguing the world eventually drove them apart, leading to the final confrontation between the two.
