I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| I absolutly loved it, With the flames of battle within the air, after just 2 episodes in, it feels like its on a run to the end all already. but i loved the pasing of todays episode in a whole, even though i wish the series would slow down just a little somtimes. cant wait for Chizurus meeting next week, it'll show just which way the plot with follow when it comes to what part will play in the rest of the series. for now tho, im really not loving the new era of guns at all. |

I think it's the Hijikata-Arc. <..< *thinks of the picture at the ending* oh well.. since i don't like hijikata the series goes down for me... well, as long souji doesn't die, anything will be fine with me. o.o |
| And I gotta say, I love Chizuru's talk with Saito about the "spirit of the swordsman" (even though I've heard it said before somewhere else). And the little sequence with Chiziru doing a promise/oath thing with Hijikata was such a D'AWWWW moment for me...I feel like it's foreshadowing something bad though o,o hmmm........ Sigh....Kondou is so stubborn. Oh man...looks like there will be a huge mess next ep... |
(My avatar is an original creation-please don't take it) |
| Great episode. I was a little sceptical about this season but it seems like they managed to do it this time. Loved the fight scenes and the moment between Hijikata and Chizuru~ |
 |
| That was a pretty confusing episode IMO, but I'm glad that I still understood most of it from what was shown and whatnot. All in all it looked like a good ep. Can't wait for someone to finally sub this. xD |
 |
| Seeing Chizuru's father and brother makes me wonder how it would work out when they meet.... Will we another bloody fight in the beginning??? :O |
| It was probably the best episode of both seasons :) Though, it's kinda surprising that this battle seemed to get a little more attention than Toba-Fushimi :P I know, I know, this is not a history show :D Anyway, the last scene had a bit of WTF feeling. Also, I wonder what Chizuru's brother is up to... And poor Okita... He doesn't get much screen time :( |

| Great episode, i like the Chizuru and Hijikata part. The story so far is getting interesting, can't wait for the next episode. |
| i want to view ep 2 with sub very fast, and yeah chizuru and hijikata gogo |

Nadistu said: I thought the same... If there's an oath, then there're going to be many obstacles to fulfill it...And the little sequence with Chiziru doing a promise/oath thing with Hijikata was such a D'AWWWW moment for me...I feel like it's foreshadowing something bad though o,o Really loved this ep. And with each ep I love Hakuouki more <3 |
 |
| I was so distracted by all the eye candy that I totally missed what was going on in the ep. Must...watch...again.... |

-GundamCrazy- said: Same here. I prefer fights with Katana and the guns are giving me a bad stench of upcoming character death.for now tho, im really not loving the new era of guns at all. My fingers were repeatedly pressing on the snapshot key XD....the boys are just soooooo breathtaking! Okita should get well already. Miss his teasing behavior. Kondou was sort of getting on my nerves. Hijikata should replace him. I like HijikataXChizuru moments. Saito *doki doki* ♥ So Kajama and his comrades have nothing to do with the clan Shinsengumi is fighting with? Evil Chi-chi arrives. |

Kondou is depressing too. I hope that upcoming story will focus more on the pretty oni guys and the rasetsu and less on these hopeless battles... (and hopeless Kondou -- I'm sick of him). At least Chizuru manned up, lol.... She seems a bit less useless this season. If she keeps it up maybe she will actually deserve to be with one of the lovelies.... |

Nevertheless, I just can't stop drooling over Hijikata's short hairdo, and for some reason, Saitou looked especially drool-worthy this scene. Anyway, beyond the fan-girl moments, I look forward to what Koudou and Chizuru's brother is up to, although at the end, I'd thought Sannan would've been behind it... |

Fyndra said: It was probably the best episode of both seasons :) I was about to write exactly the same thing. I loved it. If the whole story was told in such way, it would be a real success... instead of what we got with the first season -_-' Chizuru is STILL great and proves her quality with every episode more and more. Bishonens are starting to catch up to her, though, which is a good thing, of course - yet I think I still have to wait for them to delight me as much as she does. Episode was perfect combination of fighting, emotions and different threads. Does anyone know what exactly Kazama is doing there? Chasing after Chizuru as usual or perhaps something else? Anyway, I loved the momentary team of Harada and Shiranui xD Had a feeling they would end up on the same side one day ;) I think I like how the storyline follows the history now. My expectations about the 2nd season have risen a bit ;) |
| The 1st good but the 2nd is way better , it just left me without breath. Didn't expect to be so good. The flow of emotions, battle, love, friendship, fear all in one episode. Chizuru is starting to grow, from the preview of the next ep that guy , is he her brother? if he is, then the story's getting complicated, and I can't wait for more!!!! |
| I wish they had shown Kazama a bit more..Other than that good episode.. |
 |
| well i expected not much from this show so far it's really good. |
 |
| That person at the end is Chizuru father right? Also glad to see Chizuru twin again. |

I feel that they toned it down this season. This will always annoy me "Why does she have a sword, even though she's not going to use it at all" At least she has SOMETHING. "If she's not going to use it, why bother to bringing it" Yeah, go around defenseless. (I'd careless if she uses it. At least she didn't go somewhere dangerous with nothing in her hands.) I have sudden urges to laugh when I see someone saying Chizuru pisses them off when she doesn't even mean to do it. She means no harm and some people ends up bashing her. Now Kondo's the big idiot. Driving his men into helpless situation and trying to kill himself just to run away. Luckily a certain someone talked him out of it. |

Driving his men into helpless situation and trying to kill himself just to run away. Well, he was like this, as a historical person, I mean, ambitious behind every limit. As for the latter, it was the way of Japanese men, who saw death the best solution... I admire "Rurouni Kenshin" for its philosophy and own opinion on that subject. In fact, the words Chizuru spoke to him were like copied from RK. |
| ^ Yes, it felt like RK, indeed. Anyways, nothing special in episode 2 either. |

| That girl always talks about being of some help but she's so useless that I wonder what the hell she's here for. I don't know if it is because I didn't play the game, but this anime annoys me. |
| This episode i couldn't pay attention to the episode as much >_< Everytime i see all the guys with their new makeover, i squeal like a fan girl XD even when they were fighting... i think they were fighting someone....XD you can tell i was not paying attention...must watch episode again and pay attention to story and not the hot sexy warriors O.O |

| Talking in the middle of the target range area -dramash*t Wtf? New Rasetsu...bald guy? |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| First thing's first... can anyone tell me the name of the piano piece that's at the very beginning of the episode? I remember it from season 1 and I absolutely love it. :) Ah, I see the battles with swords vs. guns is still rockin' in Season 2. That's so... stupid. It's sad and hilarious all at the same time. XD Cool episode despite how unrealistic it all is. This show reminds me a lot of Rurouni Kenshin with the whole samurai and guns thing. Anyways, it took me a second to realize the bald dude was Chizuru's dad. I really should have rewatched the first season before going on to season 2. I've forgotten names and other events. For some reason it's hard for me to grasp certain things in this show versus others. |
    |
| Woah, I didn't see that coming O.o To be honest, I don't understand most of the storyline... But I don't really mind, as long as I can watch these bishies floating all over the screen ^__^. |
