Win me over all the rest of animes I used to love!!
Every emotion is blended here, if you put an effort to watch it every detail. I watched twice thoroughly, plus another for just being simply addicted to it after the first two.
The story is very deep, mixing lots and lots of japanese history. But don't worry it won't be boring as it sounds. The music is very good, making your eyes opened wide or relaxed easily. I just pointed out something here, 'cos other reviewers have done great jobs already. I'm here just to deliberate my feeling after watching all of the four dvds.. just yesterday!

Also good news here, Sony JP announced it is making 3 more volumes this year. So by next year, we in the usa may be able to grap them all! Yep! Keep' em coming

The series begins to get deeper....
This DVD wraps up the second short story arc of the series and begins the final and most complicated storyline. It introduces the latest villian, Ranmaru, lieutenant of Oda Nobunaga.

I was extremely confused the first time I watched this; because all of the characters had been reincarnated and/or adopted several times, they all have multiple names that it is hard to keep track of. Ougi Takaya, the main character, is also refered to as Uesugi Kagetora and Houjo Saburo [sometimes Kagetora Saburo]. An interesting side note is that the translators managed to spell Takaya's family name in three different ways in various places.

I was dared by my sister to attempt to make a chart of all of the factions and their alliances. This included feudal lords, families, hostages/adopted children, retainers, affiliated ninja clans, etc. I ended up with 6 pages of near incomprehensible handwriting.

There is an incredible amount of storyline crammed into just a few episodes. This is a series that must be watched more or less in one sitting because if you spread it out to far you quickly end up loosing track of events.

It's coveluted. It's cramped. It all hangs together and makes perfect sense.

NOTE: it is shonen-ai. If you don't like that, then don't watch it.

Great but Shocking
Great story line. I like the relationship b/wt takya and his
friends. The evil guys are cool too. I especially like kosaka
his english dub is great. I was confused the first time I watch
this DVD. So many name, like takya, his name is also saboro, and posible Kenshin. I was shock at ending. This is my first try at this sort of (homosexual)anime. Since I didn't see the first volume I was confuse on some part. I couldn't find the first volume at Suncoast. This DVD is great, I'll definite collect all volumes.
