What I'm surprised about, is that you seem to have taken a liking to a girl of "normal" (all "oddly" proportioned women out there forgive me (^^)y~) (and francis if you please, let this be small, 'kay? proportions : o

It was better that Bakemonagatari. In Katanagatari I can watch whole episode in one time. I could not when I was watching Bakemonagatari, I had to split one episode in 2 rounds.

note to self: do not watch this show when completely exhausted - they talk way too fast ... and too much ... and the show's so long!

well, i guess i'm on the same page as shichika - not really sure what's going on, but i'll go with it for now....

Lol, for something that has art that looks kiddy, this much action was quite unexpected. I'm loving it already. Their convos are witty too, and Togame and Shichika make one naive yet funny couple.

wow completely surprised from my original outlook of this show, I actually found it likeable after my friend suggested I watch it and im glad he did! I can see that it'll have its fair share of action and comedy perhaps like a lighter soul eater, and the art I really find agreeable.

will most definitely finish!

Good start to a story.
Good animation, story, and character selection.
Can't wait to see where the journey takes them.

Well after a month of sitting around and studying, I decided to watch this.
Beautiful art, and I love the character design. This episode was amusing.

I finally got around to this series. I expect the worst from the next anime I see, so it ends up turning better or as I expected. But I'm glad to say I very much like the story. The anime's style is refreshingly new, and the dialog play is fun, though tiring to some, I find it interesting enough to listen to. I pick up who the charachters really are and what to expect from them later. My only quandry is, what's going to happen to the sister, alone in a jungle, on a deserted island, with poor health conditions. Or shall we be forgetting about the sister all together. This is something of interest to me to watch, but the episodes must take forever to make an hour long at a time.

"Its not like i'm doing for the shogunate, or honor or whatever. I'm doing for you. I've fallen for you."

That was quite original.
Its pretty fresh to listen to that instead of:
"Its not like i'm doing this for you. I'm doing it for honor blablabla..."

I'm probably silly person, but that made me like this anime pretty much.
I expect great things from this series.

Shichika surely is funny.

I enjoyed the episode, and overall I'm feeling positive about the series, but I didn't love it. The animation didn't bother me at all, and I liked the characters and their quirks, especially in conversation that took place between Nanami, Shichika and Togame in the house.

The amount of dialogue and general wordiness of the episode didn't really bother me, it was more that certain parts were a little lecture-ey(?), but I guess I'll have to see if that changes as the series progresses.

Feels like a real shounen feel: A defined goal of collecting 12 swords to save (take over) the world.
Characters seem developed okay however, the Ninja talked way too much. They engaged in battle three times total and the reason why he won was due to his own inability to weild a sword. Hopefully Nanami saying how he is a total noob will be true. Interesting action scenes? O.O

Wonderful style, but oh man. Togame and Shichika have the GREATEST dynamic. The dynamic was great with all the side characters, too-my new dialogue anime after Mouryou no Hakou, and subs'll even be released at approximately the same rate! (har, har. . .sob. . .)

I enjoyed the first episode quite a bit, this series has a unique feel to it that felt refreshing. I guess the simple nature of the show, and the charming characters made it stand out in my eyes.

I just started to whatch this anime, but after seeing the first episode i can say 2 things. First is that i got a bit tired at the end cause the 50 mins length was a bit strange for me because im used to 20 mins. Second, i rly liked it, and will whatch the other two and the others as soon as i can :)

Not liking the 50 minute episode nature. I honestly think they dragged out way too much, spending too much time on useless crap and poor animation/dialogue. Hopefully next episode will be better.

I''m not to thrilled with the art or the excessive dialogue, but something about this is making me want to watch more. I can't really pinpoint it yet, but I can say I like Shichika's bluntness.
