In terms of humor, I'd go with "The Hidden Fortress."

In terms of kick-assitude and movie greatness, I'll second Blank's "The Seven Samurai," although I feel that whatever anime he refers to could only detract from it. Of course, he would know better than I would, as he has seen both.

No, no, no. Kurosawa was the executive producer, he knew what shit was goin' down. The anime is similar in plot to the movie, but instead of it being regular bandits and stuff, the Nobuseri (Bandits) are in these giant mobile suits, for lack of a better term. It's basically like, people got pissed @ Gundam and used their swords to omgwtfpwnt them.

When Kyuuzo dies it's like, "=O!!! zOHHH NOES!" The last two episodes of that anime are full of epic win, just like in Cowboy Bebop.

Kyuzo was definitely the most bad-ass.

I really disliked Mifune's character, though, until his relevance and impact was revealed later. Even then it only slightly redeemed him.

Kikuchiyo is much more important and less negligible in the anime, but he is sadly used as a comic relief and his voice is annoying (at least in the English dub.)

Then again, Gonzo covered the anime, and Gonzo fucking rocks.
