what show were you guys watching ?? after the first 3 mins i was nearly crying at just how badly they used CG, it was nearly as bad as a couple of scenes from full metal panic
il prob watch it seeing as you guys seem to rate so highly of it but i think its a shame about the CG

I haven't been watching BakuTen, so I only just realized this:

Forget the Asuka/Rei rip-offs, the characters are based on "Little Women" by Lousia May Alcott!

Little Women has four sisters:
Meg - oldest, motherly
Jo - main character, 2nd oldest, strong
Beth - next oldest, sweet-tempered, shy, sickly
Amy - the "ditz" of the March sisters, youngest, spoiled

Poor Beth gets cut out and replaced by Sei. Heh, not fanservicy enough? Alcott is turning in her grave!!! Why "Little Women"?! Are there any other similarities aside from the names?

Hahaha!! I can see it, but it's still wrong. Amy isn't really a ditz, she's actually pretty smart, but is the youngest. Ummm everything else yea seems to fit, but it's still a good show ;p

I like Amy. I was afraid I was going to hate her character (typical bratty kid) but she's pretty funny. She's got some goofy facial expresions and I love how she teases Meg constantly and how she's warmed up to Kyouhei's cooking.

Anyways, looks like my BakuTen sabatical hell comes to an end tonight with AonE's release of episode 7. Woot!

The ending was sort of surprising

Whoa check out episode 10.

I think it is a "resting" episode for the girls but Amy gets the prime focus here.

Spoiler:
However I thought the "protruding nips" were the monopoly of Meg but now we know why Sei wears that blue vest

Also I didn't know Meg could look like that!? Oh my...

Did they get another animator, even Amy acquired a few new expressions?

Oh the poor musician

I just paid a visit to the Gonzo website a while go and learnt that there's in planning to produce an OAV episode for Baku-Ten.

When this OAV will be released is yet to be confirmed.

It seems like it'll be released after the series is completed, so I guess we should be more concerned about where the series is headed first...

Anyway, Ep 8 is great. Looking forward for more.

Episode 8 substantially achieved on Kyouhei what I explained in my first post.

Kyouhei has finally begun to understand the reality of the situation he was thrown into. Due to that, he managed to grasp an insight of Jo's worries and concerns.

Spoiler:


Oh, Boy! It was never easy for Kyouhei to get along with Jo's temper during the previous six episodes, but in this episode he managed to did the unlikely: earn Jo's respect by himself.

I think Kyouhei's strength lies within his good-will purpose and honest virtue to help others when they are in trouble or desperate.

I didnt like it too much. Great animtion-but the story and everything else gets a bit boring.

the attempt at comedy is pretty bad so all you really have going for it is the animation(which is very good) and the battle scenes(which aren't above average).

Meh- matter of opinion I guess.
