Oh what shifty bastards they are, sneaking up like that.

Sneaky Iga bastards fooled Kouga. Atleast there was plenty of fighting.

Yeah, I can't stand watching how Kouga get owned again and again without even retaliating, it's almost like they are too weak to stand a chance against Iga >.>

The Iga seem certainly to be the more badass of the schools, but we have yet to see the real powerful Kouga's in action.

It is taking a slow pace for getting through the storyline but since I have already seen it I already know what to expect however I will say that it does seem like I am watching it for the first time bc it have been like 4 or 5 years since i have seen this anime so i have forgotten some of what happens though I just hope it picks up soon but if i remember correctly it will soon

I don't know what to say... seems the story writers wanted those ninjas just to stay in one place and attack one by one, while the enemy is slaughtering them, fuck logic.
I am not going to drop it, but, it might have a low score from me, but I'll see how everything will pan out.

Yes the Kouga aren't doing anything yet, but keep in mind they don't know about the scroll or pact being broken, and it's always 4-5 on 1, so they wouldn't really stand a chance anyways. I'd imagine we see some awesome retaliation soon enough.

5 eps and they still don't know that a war started.

Seriously, what were the writers thinking, putting Kouga in further disadvantage with every passing episode? By the time Kouga find something amiss, they would've been weakened too much to put up a good retaliation. ):

I hate the Iga, and I like the Kouga. ):

OH COME ON!!! The Iga just walked into the Kouga camp, slaughtered a bunch of cannon fodder and got to walk away scott free.

Damn it, no matter what happens now I'm rooting for the Kouga.


Also Okoi for best girl.

I'm going to regret my pledge to never drop another anime. This is an action show but its sooooooo one sided...and at this point it's dragging it's ass. By now we should be at the point where the Kouga know already.

What kind of fucking moron sends a mob of no-name extras to deal with a small group of colorful supporting cast??

Hmm... The Kouga are yet to know about everything. And 4 of the Kouga Ten are already dead. The Iga are in a pretty comfortable position as of now. But we are yet to see the Kouga Talent.
I don't understand why people hate this anime. Ok... its slow paced. It's a 24 episodes anime. The action is pretty gruesome. I love this Anime.

what an advantage of abysmal power is that of one clan over another, some with absurd powers and others with stupid swords ... I hoped at least that they were balanced ...
The question isn't "What anime do you like?" That is merely a list.
The question is "Why do you like it?" That tells a story. Your story.

The Iga are cowards, apparently. For all their bluster when they were killing the disposable fodder, they fled immediately when the named Kouga leaders showed up.

Hope Gennosuke and Oboro come to realise the truth soon. They're a bit too innocent and unconditionally trusting for the world full of psychos they're in.
