They posted names for all 12 swords with the first episode on their website. I know what they did is not quite perfect but I find their subs to be the best overall (Frostii... don't make me start on it) so I kinda went for consistency there. |

Though i do like what i see, and hope the episode follows up on that. I loved this epic troll of an episode, though i hope things go back to normal for the next episode. Troll episodes are best when there's only one.

I'm taking that part of her sadism is taking that frustration out on people when she gets the chance. |

i think shichika's father chose him as a family head was cuz he was someone that had a good heart while his sister nanami was just too dangerous to begin with. she seems to enjoy torturing and killing without any remorse. i don't get why she's planning on intruding in the sword hunt. maybe her little brother will need her help later on.. who knows? or her sadistic side will get the better of her and become a villian in the end?

Are you talking yuri ones? Yeah, that'd be quite awesome.
As for why Nanami's leaving the island...her "Thanks to you, I've now learned for the first time how to wield a sword" line is totally ominous and I'm now seriously dreading the day she becomes a villain. |

as i have suspected, the sister is actually stronger, but the way she acts still surprised me
in that few minutes when Nanami was doing her thing with that praying mantis ninja, i felt cold sweat on my back, and using the seiyuu of Rena from Higurashi is an excellent choice it seems inevitable Nanami will be the final boss that Shichika have to face, if he really want to be the strongest in Japan eps 4 raised my rating for this show |

Yeah she's totally last boss material, though the way i see it using her for that would totally spoil what we've seen in episode four. Guess it really does depend if she leaves the island or not. Impossible to tell at this point.

It's been a long time away from anime for me now, and to return with a series like Katanagatari is refreshing indeed.
Have got up to Ep2 and, thus far, I highly enjoy the colourful art style, the witty puns and banter reminiscent of Bakemonogatari and, most of all, the pathos of the chambara setting. Definitely a keeper, for me at least. Now for the other stuff I've missed from this season and last. |

I don't think he'd have enjoyed it, though. Sadism's too intellectual for him. Quote:

I think all of the Maniwa ninjas couldbeniceintheir own right, but in the case of Koumori (squee!!!), Shirasagi, and Kuizame, they didn't get a chance to show their nicer sides. I was hopeing we'd get to see a little bit of that in Maniwagatari.

If Nanami were a final boss, Shichikia would lose. Just saying.
She probably just ends up helping him with his style. Also, some evil doers are unstoppable monsters, but not all unstoppable monsters are evil doers. Shes quite something, but it was all selfdefense in the end. |
