This is a List of The Samurai (TV series) episodes.
XXXXX episodes were made in total, running from 1962 to 1965 in its initial showing in Japan. The broadcast dates listed are when a particular episode was first aired in Japan and in the next column when the English-dubbed version of the episode was first aired on TV station TCN-9 in Sydney, Australia.
Note: Story numbers reflect the original airing dates in Japan. In Australia Story 2 (Koga Ninjas) was the first to be aired when The Samurai debuted in 1964. Story 1 was initially overlooked because it did not feature ninjas, which became the series' hallmark. In the 2002-2006 Siren Visual Entertainment DVD release in Australia, Story 1 was again overlooked, with Story 2 being released as "Series 1".
