emotO Sengoku 05 - Samurai for Murder 3: The Remurdering
I've never actually seen Bokuden in any warring states-based anime before this one. This interpretation of her was pretty cute, but the format of the episode was the most intriguing part. A documentary and some behind the scenes footage, all showing how this weird time warp deal has affected our world. It was a surprisingly thoughtful look at how such an event would have an impact. The segment with the talking sword was a little weird (at least have it sing), but overall, it was a nice episode, if a little jarring when put up against last week. It appears there are other girls who fell into our world, not just those in the opening.
This show is moving in some interesting directions. I guess the writers were given free rein on this project, because it's been a grab bag of ideas, though not to its detriment. For next week, I have seen Gennai before. But he was a he then, and also the love interest of a magical girl. Anime can be weird like that.
