I'm going to give this one a try, but not because of the Samurainess. I want to see if Gonzo can make another series just as cool as LastEXILE.

In any case, I haven't seen Seven Samurai (yet,) so I can't make a prediction based on that. However, I won't make an opinion based on money, either. All I want is to be able to download the first episode eventually, because I want to try something new. Let's just wait and see as to how this turns out.
