| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- short that portrays historical Japanese warriors as animals? interesting. The animation reminds me of the old 1900-1940? shorts/anime' I'm glad its not as messed up as some of the old shorts |
| Well it helps that this isn't war propaganda. It's kinda funny, but the voice acting makes it sound more messed up than usual lol. |
 "Your sight, my delight. Will you marry me?" |
| Are the characters and things going on in this anime real historical stuff or fiction? |
HELLO THERE, ONII-CHAN  |
my_name_is_chef said: Are the characters and things going on in this anime real historical stuff or fiction? Pretty much comedy/fiction but with some real historical people like Oda or Hideyoshi. They are portrayed as animals Lol |
| Japanese persona as animals and they do a comedy skit each ep, it's okay I guess. |
 |
| this is pretty great for a short with oda as the mc |

| As a huge jidaigeki fan i liked this and gonna continue watching. Sure they could have used right kind of kabuto and right surname(at the time) on Hideyoshi,but then again that kabuto and "Toyotomi" surname prolly is more commonly known. I wonder if Ishida Mitsunari is going to be fox,if he is on the show. |

| Historical short with animals y at |
| Since I have a severe lack of knowledge of Japanese history (other than the Really Big Parts which involve 20th century wars), I am just watching this series at face value. I enjoyed this episode for what it presented me as humor and I really found the art style interesting. The nice thing about watching historical anime, is that it forces me to look things up and every now and then......I get smarter. LOL |
 |
| That was fking hilarious. Wtf. xD Man and listening to them talk is super fun. Oda is such an asshole. xD New favorite short, maybe. |
| Holy shit, I did not expect that. This was great. I could not stop laughing. |
 |
| nah animals were just creepy ..... |
 |
| Was this based on some old tale/joke used to present traits of those people or is it entirely original? And does anyone know how the animals were chosen to represent those historical figures? edit: @Onbuu Thank you very much. |

| LOL it is a bit weird but still a bit funny to watch it xD |
| the off voice try to be a serious anime, but is comical... The animation, simple, but like....3/10. |

Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu are widely known for their nicknames: Saru(Monkey) for Hideyoshi and Tanuki(Racoon dog) for Ieyasu. Sadly i dont know why Oda Nobunaga and Mori Ranmaru were birds. |

| to answer the 'why are they birds' question: bakaa bakaa bakaa (just kidding, i don't know) he lived G_G skariiiiiii |

Onbuu said: Well they said Nobunaga is a cuckoo, so I'm guessing because of the famous poem.Rei366 said: And does anyone know how the animals were chosen to represent those historical figures?

Onbuu said: Ranmaru may be a bird because of the crest of his family-- And to match Nobunaga's character somehow.Rei366 said: And does anyone know how the animals were chosen to represent those historical figures?

| Wasn't bad and man a lot of shorts this season! |
 |
| I felt like I didn't know what I was watching... lol. That's not really a bad thing but just kind of... odd. I liked the wood block ink style of the art and I've always thought Nobunaga was a little nuts so him as a cuckoo was hilarious. I think my favorite part was him saying they needed to play rock paper scissors and them passively freaking out about why he wanted to do that with a rifle in his hand (or talon... claw?). I'd keep watching it just because I enjoy historical anime and taiga dramas and even though it's not straight up fact, it still helps to cement these names into my head beyond favs such as Fuurin Kazan (taiga drama) and Sengoku Basara (anime/live action/game). |

| What the hell did I just watch?! |
 |
| Was very curious of the art style and the poster and was entertained. It deserves my three minutes. |
| That was entertaining |
