gotta say, I hold a neutral stance in regards to the ink brush style, I don't hate it .. nor do I love it.
no wait.. correction, there's still a type of ink I hate, and that's the one that will most likely disappear in dvds/bds.. or if we're lucky enough, in the AT-X broadcasting scheduled for October. anyway, just finished rewatching ep1 pre-air with subs, aah, way better now! pretty funny the on-screen messages that read: "4 hours until first kiss, 2 hours until first kiss, 30 minutes.. etc." I didn't get'em at first. lol'd at the 'unnamed pervert' thingy.

To be honest, I really like the ink. Not so much for censorship, but aesthetically its interesting, to me anyway. It blends well with the setting and the style of the show, somewhat like Valkyria Chronicles and its canvas style graphics.

Actually, I think it isn't serious. Maybe it's just me, but I thought there was an undercurrent of parody running through all that nationalist stuff in the intro. The humor was one of the things I liked throughout the episode.
I should also say that I liked the seiyuus singing together in the ED: Yuuki Aoi, Kugimiya Rie, and Kotobuki Minako (that's how they're credited, but I doubt Ao-chan took the lead). Maybe it was technically assisted, but I thought their voices blended pretty well.

I dig the street fighter 4 ink effects. It's actually pretty unique to see in an anime. *But curse the ink splotch censors* =/ Sadly, there aren't any extravagant fights in the first episode and ends with a freaking cliff hanger. It's going to be painful wait for episode 2. =_=

After Ikkitousen and Queen's Blade, Arms strikes again!
I also thought the same thing, but it was just some references in the beginning of the show ... and I wouldn't overthink about it, given the show's genre and the context it was put in. Otherwise we'll get a boring flame war, like with Hetalia recently. I also liked it, has been done to some extent with games like Ookami and Valkyria. Also if I remember correctly, the thick, inked silloutte outlines were first used in Toshokan Sensou. Anyway nice art style, I hope it remains consistant throughout the show. Talking about all those ink stains, I noticed that in the beginning independant of the weapon used we were always getting ink slashes, whether firearms, hammers or anything else was used, despite not being a cutting weapon Just like Queen's Blade ending. Oh! and Jubee's bad-ass one line at the end of the episode was pure WIN Now it's only 40-50 days until AT-X airs it |

The visual style of this show is the main reason why i'll keeping watching. It's very Mononoke crossed with Katangatari, which is a nice mix. Plus there's a bit of a stylish edge mixed with the sword and blood effects. Story is nothing ground breaking, though at the moment i'm interested as to what can happen after this beginning set-up.
Having a foot+stocking scene is a good way to make me a regular watcher for this series <333. Such an erotic scene, and i hope there's more between this pair. Couldn't take little Yukimura seriously when compared to the one we have in a show that's airing at the moment. People who are watching the show shall know who i'm on about. Favorite girl is going to be the blonde haired pirate hat two swords girl. I hope she'll appear soon. & i'm glad to see the usual Queen's Blade crowd here, as i expected.

Episode 1 PRE-AIRING with GIFs!
A very nice series that makes me think of Ikkitousen with Sengoku Basara and suprisingly a little Koihime Musou Action and art is nice but censors with ink are as usual and not because they are there but the fact I am used to it being a foolish plot to get the BD or DVD to buy. I just have to when it happens but you all see ladies VS Butlers did not get censored and came with specials that were nice enough. People still bough it and this series also has specials so let's all scream: AT-X MAKE IT UNCENSORED PLEASE! Right? They always do that anyways. Comments on episode parts......well I have to agree with this when the ladies make us =>

My! Looks ideal!=> http://i620.photobucket.com/albums/t...4/20ce097c.jpg Toyotomi Hideyoshi? Sanada being with that person?

I made some that Dahak86 might not have on my BLOG like these ones reduced in size of Jubei that are nice and of course => Freebies=> Rest of the GIFs are here: http://francismeunier.blogspot.com/2...episode-1.html Episode is 10/10 for unique art and action wise. Plot looks not bad too. Quote:

Subs are out.
The art style, especially the use of ink splashes, is what caught my eye right away. I love it. It looks very familiar though, reminding me heavily — as someone mentioned — like a combination of Okami and Street Fighter IV, and also reminiscent of Valkyria Chronicles. Is this style associated specifically with this studio, or with a particular artist? The story, on the other hand, seems generic. Guess this is going to be yet another show to watch for action, artwork and the girls. Heavy on gorgeous flair but light on substance. Still, eye candy wins. |
