-Before you read this review, take note of this:
I haven't played the Hakuouki games or read the manga. This is from the perspective of someone who only watched the anime.

Story: 10
I really enjoyed the story. The historic content was interesting. The added elements of Rasetsu and the conflicts with the Oni were also captivating. There was nothing with the story that bothered me, and I didn't feel bored, not even once. I usually don't watch Shoujo anime because I hate sappy romance and girly stuff, but this anime was an exception. There were no scenes with girls crying that they love this and that. Chizuru ... was more like a member of the Shinsengumi. There was even action and sword-fighting, and that was entertaining.

Art: 10
It was amazing. The characters looked perfect. The scenery was great. The fight scenes were animated well also. Nothing to complain about here.

Sound: 10
Ending and opening sequences had nice songs that fit the anime. Sounds during the anime blended in well also.

Character: 9
I really like each Shinsengumi member. They all had different, but intriguing personalities. I would like to be around them, they were cool. The only character that bothered me was Chizuru. She tried to help out the Shinsengumi, but I still think she was a scaredy-cat. She couldn't protect herself.

Enjoyment: 10
What else can I say? It was one of my favorite animes. I even want to play the video game and read the manga now.

Overall: 10
This anime is worth it to watch!
