Oda Nobuna no Yabou (light novel)

[iqamores]

Maybe Mikage will make Juubei becomes as evil as possible that will justify Nobuna's happy end, but oh well, fuck him if does that.
Some said after his mother was killed, Akechi Mitsuhide lost track of what's real.

yep, is a time bomb.

the harem route is lost, and now there is only the option nobuna and honest with them aside the others?

I sincerely believe that we are clinging too much the laws of our time, or seen too much josei and monogamous romance too.

we are in the sengoku times. the men in the sengoku times...

“Like a breeze, you are a lone wolf that nothing can make you pause your steps. You are a model Japanese man.”

“A lone wolf……that’s because he has no friends.”

“Oblivious to social norm- you only follow your own way of living. To satisfy your immense lust, you pillage all those within your grasp. Any defiance would be brutally suppressed and succumbed under your throne. Immersed in your affluent wealth and surrounded by your ample maiden harem, your being has already transcended beyond mere mortal righteousness or evil. Even the immortal deities are fearful of you. You have reached the pinnacle in all dimensions.”

... by kusunoki Yukimura.

if we talk real and modern times,he can only choose one, the others girls will seek resignation following their ways and searching be happy with someone else, probably some filler character who does not even appear in the novel, maybe a fugly bald oldmen for the sake of their family, and all this only for the modern style happyness of nobuna?

the 90% of men in japan dies in the war by sarus fault, the harem is necessary for a healthy nation.

this is sengoku! we need a harem!!!

Probably because that line was said by Haganai's Yukimura, not the actual Sanada Yukimura

My reaction for the cave part , and the whole episode

Spoiler for It's different:

全然違えじゃねえか、こら！！！
And no. Juubei didn't say to Yoshiharu to call her name in the novel.

And then there was Shingen. It looks like there is going to be a compilation episode.

They have to find the Dragon Balls quick...

[ReaperxKingx]

Episode 12 just aired and was a fantastic ending. They left a huge cliff hanger at the end like I expected. Takeda Shingen looked more ugh how do I say it, a women you do not want to mess with.

[chad001]

That was actually a pretty good ending all-around. Left a nice 'cozy' feeling in my heart, and was well produced in all aspects.

Looking at the cliffie part, and how everyone was going on about Shingen, I was thinking 'No, Shingen. No, Shingen. No, Shingen. No, Shingen. No- SHINGEN!!!!?!?!?!?' In the last 3 minutes. She was literally the last second and a half of the episode. That made me lol.

[iqamores]

nice anime good final, easy adaptation, i hope the nextwill be better. and now, lets buy dvds, blu rays, figurines, gachapons, nedoroids and cards.

Spoiler for Probably:

Most likely, if the anime left where Sagara fondled Katsuie's breasts and Akechi declaring marriage with Sagara. Then they need to continue immediately, the director needs something to start out with in season 2, most likely this. Since event A (Fondling Katsuie's breasts) and event B (Akechi declaration of marriage) leads to a bigger event in vol 5.

I suppose the same thing as well, that a Season 2 can start with these events. And then as usual, we dive into the more serious parts of the book. From what I can see, the anime has been a lot into the serious side of the books, no time for smiles I suppose

[BlazeHero]

Series as a whole was great loved every moment, was never bored with it at all. I'm so glad I picked this up. Episode 12 was good, was surprised Yoshiharu made it out ok but then again I shouldn't be too surprised, who kills off the main hero? Why didn't they kiss, gahhhhhhhh!

His harem is getting abit too big, Yoshiharu needs to slow down, lemme just throw out a wild guess and say the red head at the end of episode 12 will join his harem of lovely ladies. Hope that the cliffhanger means a second season, since I can't read japanese to save my life.

More thoughts another time, for now I rewatch the last episode and enjoy a great series.

The reason I wanted the cave scene to be properly animated:

Spoiler for Well, I'm not majoring in English, so f**k me, right? :P:

われは、天に問う。運命ならば　この光秀と相良良晴の出会いが戦国の世を変える巨大な運命ならば、われらは まだ死なぬ！　われらが出会いは、是か非か！　天よ、われに答えよ！

Ware ha, Ten ni tou. Unmei naraba, kono Mitsuhide to Sagara Yoshiharu no deai ga Sengoku no Yo wo kaeru kyodai na unmei naraba, warera ha mada shinanu! Warera ga deai ha, ze ka hi ka! Ten yo, ware ni kotae yo!

I ask thou Heaven. If it is fate, and that the meeting between this Mitsuhide and Sagara Yoshiharu is the colossal fate that will change this Warring States world, we shall not die! I ask thou if our meeting is for the right or wrong! Answer me, oh Heaven!

v4 p177

This scene happened when Juubei was going to protect Yoshiharu from the Fallen Samurai hunters (Matsudaira's men actually ) that Zerg-rush towards the cave, and her dislocated right arm from the fall failed her.

Easily the most memorable line from the entire novels, for me at least. Juubei already suspected something when she saw Yoshiharu's sad eyes when he saved her at Kiyomizu Temple. Juubei warmed her up not only "to not let him to die", but she wanted him "to live".

Whatever the Heaven's (author ) answer is, I will probably look back at the cave scene and ponder, "Does she deserves this?". And because the word "Mother" is one of the repeating words in vol 4, 7, 9, it made me anxious about Mitsuhide and her family's fate. Will it be the same as the real Akechi "Juubei" Mitsuhide?.

For now I shall have my lunch, get back to work, and prepare the contents for Sasamoto Yuuichi's novels topic.

[yui2401]

Saru's harem not that big, except Juubei, Nobuna, Shingen, Froius, they all loli. And for Juubei, I hope her mother won't die like history, or we will have two yan, Nobuna and Juubei)

Could show it as a flashback in season two if they do it. Remember Akechi feelings goes sky high later on, a good anime director reading the Novel would say "why do it now, the girl loves him lets save this part later on for more impact". If they done that line from the Light Novel in episode 12, it would leave a lot of plot holes since it was going to end on that episode since there wasn't a continuation to explore it further.

[justpassingby]

Enough about Juubei. I want to keep her as my Wakamurasaki Let's talk about Matsunaga.
When she surrendered to Nobuna in vol 3, she said she shall be reborn as "White Danjou" (p230). She was a Gandalf

But her sexy appearance and speeches remind me about this guy

Images

Theatricality and Deception, Powerful Agents to the Uninitiated. Yes, he was sexy

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

^ My favorite villain character for this year so far.


Speaking about "Theatricality", when Matsunaga said 大芝居 ooshibai was needed to unify the country when Nobuna talked about her plan of her idols at Azuchi Castle (v6p63), first word to cross my mind was indeed the "Theatricality", but checking kotobank

２ 目的を遂げるために、運を天にまかせて行う、人目を欺くはかりごと。

Oh the irony , when it came out from the mouth of someone who didn't believe in gods, for the ears of the same type of person.

well that last episode was satisfying hahaha, well at least there will be a season 2!

I don't expect one anytime soon. Cause the Takeda thing still isn't finished yet. Plus the usegi house haven't even made a appearance in the novel yet. If it gets a second season quickly it'll be a unique end which would suck. Without a proper final boss the anime feels half-assed even if it got rushed.

I think both series were able to "give their respects" to the Sengoku era, and I have to give both authors credit for their ability to give a twist to the story of the Warring States period.

[Athena]

Hmm...the end of Nobuna was...

I'd say that I liked the series, but the final arc was kind of weak in terms of setting (someone supposingly dies + revenge + girl lost her mind + guy comes back) and compared to that, I liked volumes 1 and 2 (especially 2) much more.

Oh well, I hope for a season 2 for the anime. And for continuation for the LN.

Yeah, I get what you mean.. I really enjoyed the animation and the story is fantastic, as well as to my chagrin some of the "moe" factor that I typically am not too huge a fan of..

The last episodes however felt too cliche and forced compared to the rest of the story/writing. I can believe Nobuna would want to set the mountain on fire, but I can't believe she'd be dumb enough to charge into an army by herself..
