Why do they keep making remakes of the Sengoku? I prefer Sengoku Basara because IMO that's the BEST Sengoku adaption ever!!!

Not really surprised at this adaptation because of the previous manga adaptation. One of the few GA Bunko titles that actually sell ok. The story isn't bad, but isn't anything remarkable.
The illustrations though, are very, very good (maybe I should link all the cover arts). Here's hoping for a decent studio. Era of [b]romance and concentrated historical figures! |

Anyway is it fair that I saw this title and immediately thought of Gihren No Yabou? I'd love to see an adaptation of that, but obviously this is another one of those Sengokusploitation shows where they moeify something or other. We all know the drill by now I'm sure. |

Well there's the feudal era (Tokugawa Shogunate), the Meiji Restoration and WWII. The feudal era gets used fairly often and I've seen WWII show up in shows like Zipang! but those seem to be the only other two. The Meiji Restoration I can never recall showing up as a setting. They'd sooner go to France it seems before taking that era up.

That doesn't chance the fact that this is the fourth anime I've noticed in the last 2 years with the exact same idea: Sengoku period setting with ensemble cast consisting of famous warring leaders modified to simple moe archetypes. I don't know if Sengoku Basara started this trend or if it started further back (which is more likely). It's one thing to have an anime set in the Sengoku period, but to run off this same idea so many times is getting old. (This is what's interesting about Hyouge Mono, by the way. It operates on a radically different concept.) To see more foreign historical settings in anime would be great. I wouldn't count on it though. |

Sengoku period in japan is like the three kingdom period of china, highly romantasized and popular with young and old people alike. Not to mention, there's no clear enemy characters in i unlike yoshitsune's story so each people can cheer on the character with trait that most closely resemble them. And also, it has to symbolic character in nobunaga, a tragic ambitious man, and hideyoshi, the symbol of rising from lowest position into the highest. It's not a wonder that many story took the era as it's setting.
For tokugawa shogunate, nothing interesting is happening n the period so it's hard to take it as setting. Meiji restoration has a lot of event happening during it, but unlike sengoku period where it is country x country, in meiji restoration, the theme is more about rebellion against government. |

Huh this seems like a reverse of Sengoku Strays which has a female lead going back in time and the big wigs being bishounen.
Porbably give this a little whirl but I think more likely to wait for it to finish airing then watch it all at once.

Wait a sec, this is getting anime adapted too?
It could be interesting because so far I've enjoyed the light novel. The author so far has sticking to the actual historical events, though with some personal twist and the really differentiate the series from others of similar theme, albeit different media, such as Sengoku Rance, Koihime Musou, Ikkitousen, Sengoku Hime, etc. If anything this series is like a cross of manga Ryuurouden (the first series) and Ikkitousen. I just hope this didn't end up like Koihime where they took away the main protagonist and focus only on the moe-fied girls, especially the main point of this light novel is about the main character's ambition to create his ancient harem and the fact that he is subbing into Hideyoshi's roles and performing the duties based on his historical/video games knowledge.
