It was a nice first episode but I was bored after a while. I think it will become better though and the animation is nice.

I don't mind since I like her already.
You have a thing for those weakly not very sharp kind of girls don't you?
Wrong. He's got a thing for pretty much any girl it seems.


Really? From what i understood he doesn't like very much, dynamic women, evil girls or sexy revealing females. Doesn't he start calling them bitches and whores?

No the only girl I like is Sawako so I guess the appreciation I have for other girls is either looks or personality kind of like Sawako. Sawako....my love in anime.....no other girl is more perfect than her.

In spoiler my anime list for now.

Okay, so, I watched this for, well, the bishies only. And I can honestly say, I have no idea what the story is about.The guys were hot though. Enlighten me if you can, please.

The beginning had me i thought this anime was going to reall badass. Untill half-through i realize they are mostly standing around talking about alot of boring things. And i also realize the overuse of bishi-characters on bother genders, that just kind of seemed very lame to me. but other than that the animation was nice and for a shoujo there was alot of blood, just hope theres action on the way.

Story is interesting enough, but I did start to get a little bored during the middle.
Probably cuz I was sleep deprived and about to pass out on my keyboard though :p

No, I'd say it's the opposite. All these characters are based on real historical figures. And in Gintama their names were all altered. In Hakuouki they appear the same they were in the history.

And I knew I wouldn't be the only person who noticed this!!!



Since I didn't expect much from the show, it didn't disappoint me.
All I like about it are the OP ( both animation itself and the song ), character design and protagonists' voice actors.
It's Roy Mustang in disguise! and Chizuru's seiyu is Shoukei's from Juuni Kokki!!

I personally have nothing against the bishies. And no I'm not a yaoi fangirl (yaoi fangirls actually tend to annoy me o.e)

Good first episode, animation was good, can't wait for the next one :3

Seiyuu and bishie feast! However it didn't meet my expectations (and I thought I'd learn)...
Chizuru was indeed annoying and the rest of the charas felt awkward.

This anime is pretty interesting, I kinda don't like how Souji is though.. but I'll get used to it. Toshi looks good. :3

The OP looks good, but the ED.. a bit too shoujo for my taste.

But then again, I think it is under the shoujo genre.. o.o

God, that was boring! I almost fell asleep while watching >.<
Don't really mind bishies, but zero action + damsel in distress = not cool at all. I'll probably watch one or two more episodes in the hope that the story picks up, but as it is now, that's not my series. Maybe because I'm not interested in slashing and prefer strong and capable females.

I liked it, even though as I watched it I had flashes of Ouran HSHC, because of the first episode gender mix up. In this case, though, how can you honestly see Chizuru as a boy? I'll stick around only if it gets a tad more interesting...

No, I'd say it's the opposite. All these characters are based on real historical figures. And in Gintama their names were all altered. In Hakuouki they appear the same they were in the history.


Kondo, Okita and Hijikata are sort of like their Gintama counterparts. Especially Okita.


That's becasue of the rumours about what kind of people all of them were. Hijikata was called a demonic vice commander for real, he was rather cold-blooded and killed lots of people.

Kondo was a kind and a VERY respectable person that sacrificed himself for the sake of his people (it didn't help much in the end really)

Okita died of tuberculosis while he was very young. Also was on the same terms with Hijikata as in Gintama and Hakuouki. He also liked children a lot, despite his a bit sadistic personality. And it's said that when he was dying in a hospital, no one had the courage to tell him that Kondo's been executed, because they all thought Okita was very kind and since he looked up to Kondo, they didn't want to sadden him.

Saito was often a spy, a rather cold blooded person too, could play any role his duty demanded.

Sanosuke and Shinpachi were drinkers, good friends and party dudes. I don't remember what happened to them, but it's said that Sano survived everything and fled to China.

I don't remember about Heisuke.

Also, such people as Yamazaki and Katsura existed as well. I don't remember their real first names.

Judging from the OP, Yamazaki will appear in Hakuouki. He looks nothing like Gintama's Yamazaki though xD

That's just bits and pieces of history, you should listen at school xP

How do I slip into these shows? After the first 5 minutes, I was thinking, "this sounds like a vn." Lo and behold, I come here and someone mentions 'otome' which I then look up. How depressing.

The episode was mediocre on every level besides the art. The script went about as expected as any parody would poke fun at. Then I find out Deen is doing this, and I have little hope for the show. I may drop it even though I would like to watch a shoujo this season and it's good looking. But Deen is a pathetic studio, so I'm not sure.
