The first time I watch seven samurai, I was amazed of how the samurais were anime/manga archetypes.
So many cartoon have at least one of this. The loner quiet with great habilities, the crazy one, the old wise one. All of them. Like the The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Later I found out that “A bugs life” was also based on 7 samurai.
Great show
