| Been awhile since I've seen the Touken Ranbu franchise.. It had a more serious tone than what I anticipated and introduced a fair amount of characters. Animation quality seems similar to Touken Ranbu - Hanamaru although better. I think out of all the cast, Mikazuki is the most noticable for his noticable looks and talent. Pretty much got an episode seeing how they daily life is like for these guys. |

where did you watch It from? I tried searching it but its not available with subtitles.
| @damnit_tomioka I believe the user you're replying to watched it without subtitles. AFAIK it's not available with subtitles. Perhaps a fansub group will pick it up. |
| A subtitled version is now out on the high seas, though it's machine-translated. However, the subtitles make it easy enough to understand what's going on. (Don't ask for a link, it's against MAL TOS.) |
| Where can I watch Touken Ranbu Kai? Crunchyroll doesn’t have it or they are late on this one. |
| I guess I have mixed feelings about this first episode. Both hanamaru and katsugeki focused a lot on shinsengumi and sakamoto swords, which is understandable since they were the main characters. This is why I was really excited when I heard about a new touken ranbu animation coming out, this time it'd finally focus more on another group of swords: the Nobunaga swords and possibly others from the Sengoku era. I still can't pinpoint the reason, but I'd say that I got a bit disappointed at this first episode, specially when I compare with hanamaru and katsugeki. It's not as funny and relaxing as hanamaru and the execution and development so far were not as good as katsugeki. The honmaru itself also seemed a bit off with so few touken danshi plus the creepy saniwa. But I did like that it stayed faithful to the game mechanics. We only have 7 episodes left, I'm a huge fan of the Nobunaga swords, so I'm looking forward to how the story will develop |
| best girl boy Midare is back yay was a fun episode i guess, seeing all the charas again after a long time |
fav "new" girls from winter <3 (2 extra girls this time, but 36 seasonals so whatever) ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks |
| Swords forged by the same person or owned by the same master form a "family", they are like brothers to each other. Their outfits are based on their history: Sayo wears tatters and always talks about revenge, because his former master used him to kill a bandit that murdered his mother; Souza was beloved sword of Lord Nobunaga but he never used him in battle, he was only a decoration, hence his outfit is like the one of a woman. Hachisuka's story is similar: he is the original sword made by Kotetsu, he was never used, only put on display. That's why his outfit is all sparkly and golden. |
