| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Saitou-san introducing himself to the main guy. Hijikata is happy to see him. Saitou-san said he wants to join even though the pay is not good. Everyone else is happy to see him, too, ever since he left the team. People don't look good on them for fighting against the soldiers working under the government, who just steal people's money for their own use. The main guy has justice, but afraid of fighting against them. The guy who was sick in sequels were having practice match with Saitou-san, and he lost. The "leader" is too lazy to care for the team for a reason, a fire that caused by himself by miss but Kondou got all fault. They think that Kondou is in same level as him and doesn't want him to look lower than him. The one he's seeing is related to that red water that relates to the sequel and the girl's father's there, too! Hijikata said the main guy isn't trying his best to live by practicing swordmanship and etc. Saitou-san and one of the guys came back with blood on them... |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Yay, Saito finally meets Ryunosuke! I'm curious as to why he wouldn't draw his sword when that guy was going to kill him. Was he just frozen with fear? @_@ Can Serizawa be any more of a jerk? No wonder why everyone despises him! At the end, I thought that Souji was the one that made that little boy cry. XD NO! That cliffhanger. |
 |
| I like this series more than the previous ones. I'm curious as to why Ryunosuke is scared to draw his sword. I actually like his character more than Chizuru (she got annoying fast). I also like seeing the Shinsengumi before they were Shinsengumi. I look forward to watching the upcoming episodes. I hope they keep the story strong. What happened to Saitou and Shinpachi?!! 5/5 ^_^ |
 |
| i love it i went lke kyaaa when they released the first cap last week loving ryunosuke he seems very complex and in a way very simple he is the best *o* and poor yuu boy the hell with saitou and shinpachi why they scare the poor boy like that holy crap XD and i think i know why they called mibu wolfs i mean they where at mibu temple OOO and oh my god i want to know what the hell those two do to be covered in blood owo and aha now we know where they took that red bootle to experiment with owo stupid nimi |
| Life is bittersweet can you live with that? |
| Another great ep. I agree this one was even better than the first. Definitely prefer Ryuunosuke as the protagonist to Chizuru. I wonder if it's that trauma from the first ep that caused him to be scared of samurai? Or maybe it's something deeper than that. Hijikata did have a point - Ryuu is risking his life by going out alone, and not having a way to defend himself Glad that Saito's back, and that's probably the happiest I've ever seen Hijikata. Also good to see an Okita that's healthy, and not dying -_- The other samurai are really opening up to Ryu, unlike in the first ep. They're all like a family almost xD Can't wait til next week |
 |
| First of all, I love the ED song and visuals! Mao's songs are always so beautiful. And the still with the younger Okita, Hijikata and Kondou made me really excited for the upcoming flashbacks. Since Yamazaki is also in the ED hopefully that means he'll be making an appearance sometime soon. Like everybody has been saying, Serizawa is such a jerk! There's definitely going to be more tension developing between him and the rest of the characters and I can't wait to see how that culminates in the end. I was also surprised to see the ochimizu introduced so early in the series. And to think that Serizawa was the one to get his hands on it first... based off the OP though, it looks like Sannan is going to get thrown into the mix eventually as well. It was nice seeing Hijikata so happy when Saitou returned! It's really interesting watching the Shinsengumi before they became such a feared and powerful faction. Ryuunosuke getting protected so many times this episode kind of made me laugh. XD It makes sense because he's the playable character in the game, but hopefully he'll able to pick up his sword again soon and fight along with the rest of the characters! |

| Awn! *-* Hajime, Souji, Sanosuke and Toshizou! They're so sweet! ^^ Hajimeeee! I missed you! I also laughed a lot Ryuunosuke: " Even Hijikata-san smiles. " ___________________________________________________ Souji: " Don't you get sick from buying sake for Serizawa-san everyday? " Ryuunosuke: " Today is tabacco. " Souji: *laughs* As always excellent OP and ED I wonder who were the two girls that appeared.... Are they related to the Shogun? |
| And the cat's out of the bag... Ryunosoke can't use a sword? Or is he just afraid of it? =o (It seems like the former since he acted all amazed when they came and rescued him and stuff...?) |
(My avatar is an original creation-please don't take it) |
| So nice seeing the guys talking with each other all casual again, it feels like that hasn't been seen in ages. Which does make sense considering how they went separate ways partway through the second season. Ryunosuke distantly makes me think of the ever so shy Masanosuke (Five Leaves). Only, you know, several shades less appealing. That and I don't think it is actually because he's skittish, more likely some sort of tragic back-story. |
 |
| I just can't get the thought that almost all of them (I'm wondering if I ought to use spoiler tag or not...I think that almost everyone saw Hekketsuroku... but well) out of my head O_o Anyway, great episode! I loved that Hijikata/Saitou moment, it was so genuine. I'm also curious about Ryunosuke's (damn...his name is so hard to remember for me xD) past. And Serizawa is getting on my nerves. |
| The only thing you can rely on is that you can't rely on anything. |
| I wanted to say that OP song sounds a lot like something one would hear in visual novels. So I went to vndb and found out there's a visual novel. So, does VN also follow this main guy. I honestly don't like him, so would I be losing my time reading it? As for the episode, it's decent, a new character getting thrown into a mix. Ending promises something bad happened, so I'm looking forward to next episode. Not a bad show, I just don't get a lot of things. |
| The ED is very pretty, both musically and visually. |
 |
| I should have guessed right away that this is a shoujo samurai, I knew the character visual designs were way too off for warriors. It's still boring for now, I'm not sure if I'll endure to watch this to the end(or maybe I should have seen S1 and 2 first..). |
  |
| Well this is definitely better than the later series to me at least. And since Chizaru's dad showed up, the ending is getting more predictable. Still good that Saito finally showed up. |
 |
| A little boring imo. But the cliffhanger wasn't too bad Ryuu is totally pathetic. He can't draw out and use his sword. I guess some sort of past trauma...? Not that I really care. I just want him to stop being such a weakling lol. Serizawa is such an ass >.> |
| this might have been watchable if not for the blue hair's whining |
