How do you follow up an anime series like Cowboy Bebop, a hard-hitting blend of sci-fi and jazz? If you’re Shinichiro Watanabe the answer is with a hip-hop adventure set in alternate Edo-era Japan. Samurai Champloo can regularly be found near the top of best anime roundups, and if you’re looking for an excuse to revisit the beloved series, Crunchyroll has one for you: a limited-edition Blu-ray collection with a premium presentation. Samurai Champloo: The Complete Series Limited Edition arrives November 5 exclusively on the Crunchyroll Store. Fans can preorder the soon-to-be released Samurai Champloo box set for $67.49 (was $90).

Samurai Champloo’s Limited-Edition release comes with a display-worthy slipcase and the six art cards shown above. As for the extras on the disc, you’ll find clean credit sequences, concept art, a “bumper” gallery, promo videos, and trailers. All 26 episodes are included on three Blu-ray discs, and thanks to the high production values, this show really shines in high-definition. The soundtrack is also legendary stuff, and combined with the slick action, the series has become a cult-classic over the years.

It’s worth noting that there’s already a standard edition Samurai Champloo release you can buy. Samurai Champloo: The Complete Series on Blu-ray is available for $32.49 (was $50) at Amazon.
