| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So just talk about this episode. Like what did you like about it? |
| While watching it.. I've bought the wrong dvd lol But I can expect this to be better not just a Samurai genre but a lot more |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| I actually found it to my liking. This whole Blend of futuristic cyper punk technology and the warring samurai error is just pretty unique and it fits well into the time and setting. I hope this series is a keeper. |
  |
| Off to a good start. Now how will they turn a 3hour (?) film into a 12 hour anime, haha? |
| Such junk... |
| I'm also curious to see how they'll stretch it out for a full season. So far, so good. |
| I think the idea of turning the bandits into machines was a terrible idea. For a story like this I think the deaths of humans are important. |

| Samurai series with mecha? /wtf face. I am not used to the CG yet though. Pretty badass episode. "I apologize for the intrusion". >:) |
 |
| That wasn't bad. I was nice to have the whole plot laid out in the first episode though. A lot of other shows makes you go "It's X episode but I still don't know what's going on." |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |

| A great start I must say! Really interesting atmosphere and setting, I sure am interested to see what this anime will have for a story! |
 |
| I like the artwork actually and the setting. I can't say ive seen this sort of mashup between feudal japan envirnoment mixed with futuristic/steampunk/mecha before , so at least that's a pretty unique point at least in terms of the 200-ish anime ive watched thus far. I was kinda confused/not sure how to take it when i was seeing those mecha with huge swords and samurai flying around in futuristic looking vehicles. Its again defintely an odd mashup but who knows they may do it right here. Wonder if they'll explain where this technology came from, from near the beginning of the ep it looked like aliens crashlanded on earth or something. The samurai we've met already look pretty interesting. |

| That Outro has some pretty rocking instrumentals. |
