I have to admit I'm rather curious as to how seven men with swords and no magical powers are going to take down a horde of Gundam. That will be a spectacle to see.

Well they're not really just regular old samurai with swords. Didn't Kanbei cut an entire ship in half in the first episode?

Yeah, they're ANIME samurai. That means they're epic and can do anything. =D

I agree... The giant gundam makes the whole thing seem a little uneven.

Again, what bothers me is that the mecha thing makes things seem a bit....impersonal and kind of hollow. It would be fine if the bandits were explored a bit but so far...no dice there.

When they said the bandits mechanized their bodies, I thought they'd look like Kikuchiyo. I didn't expect them to be giant gundam >__>

I'm disappointed Katsushiro was made a Samurai just like that, I was hoping he would have a proper moment to prove himself.
Also the guardians were super creepy hanging upside down like that!

Good anime so far, but holy shit is Rikichi annoying. Dude has been useless so far, and in this episode he almost got the farmers (the people who are helping him btw) in trouble with the Shikimori and the bandits. Yeah dude, I'm sure that your weak ass was going to accomplish a lot by chasing a powerful group of bandits with a sword smh. I get it that he has a lot of anger given what happened to his wife, but fucking think before you act.
