Lakeith Stanfield will star as the first African samurai in Netflix’s anime series ‘Yasuke’ 2021

[Ain't That Something]

This was another bait and switch. A show named Yasuke where he was basically the second billed character in his own show. Might as welled called the shyt magic lil white japanese girl

Honestly fukk this show for all the aforementioned criticism

I’m on episode 2 right now....

So y’all nikkas telling me this dr voodoo wannabe, the werewolf chick, robot white guy, and priest don’t get explained

Netflix 0-2 for black lead anime. Incredibly disappointed in this and Canon Busters

Boondocks alums ain’t looking too hot right now

Yeah this is bad to mid. Yasuke could've been great. Based on the original history, it could have been intriguing.

I dropped it after episode 3.

Hopefully the live action movie gets off the ground.

what else are you attributing to boondock alums?

Cannon Busters...but you know what, LeSean did that one too

 

[PoorAndDangerous]

I heard there’s like gundams and magic and shyt in this? Lame. Why not just tell the real historical story. I’ll pass on this

 

[Trot LaRoc]

On episode 1.....not terrible but I expected much better. Maybe itll get better....not feelin Lakeith either, dude sounds bored

And why they make these japanese nikkas look like cacs

 

[Grizzly]

I gave it some time. nikka this shyt TRASH. Lesean Thomas had a chance to really dig into his storytelling bag and redeem himself after phoning it in with Cannon Busters but he took the easy route. The art is always on point. Never get that fukked up. I just wish that everything else matched.

Good thing I read this thread before starting. I was gonna watch it dubbed but it looks like I can skip this.

 

[feelosofer]

I will say this though, the soundtrack is absolutely beautiful.

 

[Wargames]

This isn’t that bad, it’s ok. Some parts are even good.

If anything the show needed more episodes to flesh things out, but I am assuming the budget didn’t allow for that.

The sound track is fire and it looks good. Lakieth is a bit of a mumble mouth speaker, but that’s not so bad it ruins the show.

I switched it japanese with english subs and it made it quite a bit more enjoyable

Lakeith dropped the ball voice wise....wasnt a good choice. the japanese cat has a way more authoritative voice

Lakeith's cadence is too mellow for a role like this.
