Blue Eye Samurai
Created by the husband and wife team of Michael Green and Amber Noizumi, this 8 episode masterpiece is exactly what the medium of animation needs, regardless of the demographic. It takes the right amount of time, money, and most importantly, a genuine love for storytelling to combine the dramatic gravitas of prestige television a la Game of Thrones or Warrior with some of the most breathtaking visuals and immaculately choreographed action sequences I’ve seen all year.
“Blue Eye Samurai is up there with Scavenger’s Reign and Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur as some of the best animated series of 2023. It’s a well-crafted action thrill ride that juggles a lot of different tones and elements, but it slices and dices through them with ease while also having some terrific action and visuals that match the show’s lofty ambitions.“ -The Animation Guru
