Gennosuke and Oboro are so sweet together, too bad about what's going to happen with the pact being broken and everything.

Can anyone tell me how many scrolls are there? In the first episode Yashamaru and Shougen take one scroll each, but then Ogen and Danjo kill each other and they have another scroll and in this episode we see a bird with another scroll. The scroll from the bird is the one that Ogen gave to Yashamaru??

The scroll they have in this episode is the same one from the elders fight. Notice the blood markings?

The animation in this show is great! But I'm not a fan of their name choices. So far it's been hard to remember anyones name o.o

Those ninjas sure have weird powers. Anyway, it seems that Iga ninjas are trying to trap the 2 Kouga ninjas.

I felt so bad for Gennosuke and Oboro seeing them act so sweet and correctly, knowing what's gonna happen in future =\

Gennosuke and Oboro are never going to marry I guess. Unless they are the only 2 standing at the end of course.

I livek how both sides have shady looking characters, although for some reason I prefer the Iba at this point.

I wonder how the piercing eyes thing works.

I agree so far, but I imagine that as I keep watching I'll start picking up on them more often.

Regardless, interesting backstory/prequel episode.

Overall decent but that exposition scene about her eye was sooooo sloppy. "YOU HAVE THIS POWER THAT DOES BLAH BLAH BLAH, SUCH POWER, VERY COOL." And she's like "...thanks for that." lol

Very subtle showing a spiders web there. Oboro being useless at anything ninja related is a bit disappointing and Senzens introduction just makes him look like your average generic anime villain. Hope that isn't the case.

I wonder what role Oboro's eyes will play.

Most of the guys in this series have really outlandish appearances. Even the comparatively normal looking ones have oversized eyebrows or hair plugging up their nostrils. On the other hand, the female characters look fine.
