I gotta say, those weapons are pretty dull. Or they've got pretty resilient bodies.
Anyway, "Wake up, guys.", somehow sounded really awesome : >

I still totally approve of this second season.

Very good episode and a juicy preview at the end with eerie music. Bring it on!

Oh em gee. Ichi's back.

... maybe now that she's a ghost or whatever she won't be so annoying? xD

Also, as the OP noted, those guys' weapons must be extremely dull... I thought the Japanese were meant to be good at making sharp swords? Oh well.

Keiji's aura is PINK. What a man.

Anyway, overall, another great episode. Needz moar Masamune, however.

Speaking of which, though, best innuendo of the week:
"Sorry, but I'm going to have to show you my dragon!"

That pretty much sums up all of my thoughts about this episode. And I'm glad Ichi's back, just because I'm a whore for Mamiko's voice.

Toshi is always srs bsns.

I have a new respect for Yukimura for noticing Mamiko Noto's voice in an instant.
If she is back, this is probably going to be the best anime this season.

NAOE KANETSUGUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D <3 =D Okay, it was only for like 5 seconds, but he's one of my favourite figures from the Sengoku Period. He had the best helmet ever!! (other than THAT oversized helmet of Data Masmune's) Seriously, he REALLY did wear a helmet with the character 愛 (love) on it <3

Blubbering Keiji, d'awwww...

And so Ichi- I mean, Keiji did go bankai xD

As for Ichi, well, I have a kind of sentiment for her, so I'm pretty glad she's back. It's getting more and more interesting, the story I mean, with her being there.

But I'm utterly disappointed with the complete lack of Kojuurou and soooo few moments of Masamune and Date Army. Yet, I was touched when they showed us the back of Masamune, and one of the soldier said that only Kojuurou could protect Masamune's back. Give him baaaack...!

I liked Kenshin in this episode. And Yukimura had his own minute. I really hoped he would help the villagers, even despite Oyakata-sama's instructions the way he explained himself them. After all, Yukimura is a good guy here.

Now I'm waiting for the next instalment!

Maeda's army was pretty fail. They had to retreat...twice. Kenshin was showing some serious mercy/pity too. Oh well, at least the battle this episode was really good. I was kinda sad Toshiie didn't die and that somehow no one was bleeding after all those attacks <_< It's never serious unless someone dies!

An episode is not complete until Date spouts some engrish.
Wake up guys, indeed.

"Wake up... Wake up, guys."

Keiji's weapon is pretty dull because I somehow saw Toshi not bleeding...

But otherwise, an episode, as overcooled said, is not enough without Date's engrish.

I wonder if Keiji has dulled his blade on purpose. He's supposed to walk the path of peace through communication rather than warfare, after all.

"Sorry, but I'm going to have to show you my dragon!" No apology needed.

I love that this series has been consistently awesome so far! I was actually really upset during Keiji and Toshi's confrontation (yes, I know I'm lame).

This episode could have done with more Date...but his engrish was enough to tide me over until next time. Just barely.

I was a bit apprehensive about Ichi showing up; it could either turn out really well, or be a complete disaster >.<

WAKE UP, GUYS
ALL RIGHT

Haha Masamune is great. But did anyone else think it was weird/random that Hideyoshi turned up when he did? Seems too convenient.

And for those who commented about the lack of bloodshed: I assumed that Keiji and Maeda deliberately used the dull ends of their weapons. They didn't want to kill each other straight out, just knock the other out. That was my understanding, anyway.

I think I like this season better than the first. I'm not sure if that's because I know all the characters now, or what. Hmm.

Then Keiji has a reverse blade nodachi and Maeda's spear has square prongs, because they both very clearly hit each other with the business ends of their weapons.

I think the answer to the Keiji Toshii no cut confrontation was due to ABS OF STEEEEEL. HARHARHAR. Anyways, I'm kinda looking forward to see what the heck Ichi is up to! I wasn't too happy with the lack of Masamune, but that Engrish...So awesome. WAKE UP GUYS. I'm gonna say that to all my friends later 'cause I'm a moron like that.

Well, overall a good episode. I like the fight between Keiji and Toshie, although it didn't make sense, I swear I saw Toshie stabbed Keiji, but he didn't bleed at all. Well this is Sengoku Basara, anything could happen XD.

It probably won't be. It's only going to be episode 4, after all. Masamune will be badly beaten up, but he'll survive and the experience will motivate him to become even more badass.

Oh, god damn it! Ichi, get out of here!

Despite Ichi making her return at the end(I have no idea where they're going with this), nice episode. Hideyoshi vs. Masamune should be a very good fight, if it's not interrupted or cut short. I'd be watching it now, but Funimation seems to be one week behind on Sengoku Basara, along with Shiki...for some reason.

Date is a fool though. And it must be hard to fight a boy you raised up ...

So next episode we get Ichi haunting? God...just when I was glad the series was rid of her.

Friend against friend. How sad. But I'm glad that Keiji beat the shit out of Toshi! Toshi was so stupid and stubborn in this ep! With the ass whooping that Keiji laid out, I'm sure Toshi was probably bleeding internally from that fight.

Gotta love Kenshin for stepping in and dropping some knowledge!

I'd totally love to see Date's dragon! Can't wait for the fight between Date and the gorilla guy!

Ok, this episode is good too, 2nd season is already better than 1st. I just love Date's new phrases(and the old ones too, ofc). I gave 4/10 on first season, but Ikeep watching this second season for no apparent reason. Beside Date's phrases and Keiji'(now frequent) appereance.

Man, talk about an epic strategy fail. Geez, Toshiie is an awful strategist. Seriously, if you're not confident in taking the Dragon of Echigo head on when he has just a small force with him, why the hell did you even bother going there in the first place!? He couldn't have asked for a better chance and instead, he turns his back to his enemy,gets caught in a trap, and get defeated by a pink getsuga tenshou as a bonus!!

Not that I'm hating, actually I'm loving the second season so far, but Toshiie epic fail was the only moment that made me "face palm". lol =/

Ichigo vs Uncle was somehow intense.. even without blood. The music playing in the background really added to the effect.

WAKE UP GUYS. Does this guys badass level know no limits? He actually won that battle? Epic. Totoyomi is a punk, I freaking hate him. Oda needs to come back and fodderslap him left and right.

Ichi? That background music? GTFO of there Yuukimura.

Shit. Ichi is still alive? Or that was just her ghost? Anyway, good fight between Toshi and Keiji. And there was a flashback of a girl that seems to be related to Keiji. So that was probably the reason why he is against Hideyoshi now. And damn. I thought Date was the only one standing. Was surprised when he said "Wake up, guys". Hehe. Go Date!!!!

I imagine Ichi is a ghost due to the dark powers we witnessed in s1 with her, or Yukimura is just hearing/seeing things as she basically died in his arms in s1.

either way, this is getting exciting.

War is never good. It will only bring bloodshed on both sides. It shatters the bond that brothers once had. Damn.

I wonder why Hideyoshi went on his own? He didn't even bring a weapon, hell I don't think he even uses a weapon. This dude is too badass.

Ichi? Well they didn't show that she died but I didn't expect that she survived. What will be her role this time, I wonder?
