MiyuBunny said: I just rewatched, and he said 'Himiko...I will not mourn your death just yet. Once I defeat Arthur, I will return you to the earth.' Doesn't he mean that he is going to bring her back to life then? Or does he mean that he will bury her then? Either way, it didn't happen... Yeah, I think he wanted to bury her, like others... because this is always like thing that he could make... But... damn you Nobunaga... -.- Once again I will said... I don't like that time skip... Last hope for Himiko was ruined... ;( |

| I thought the ending was OK, I liked the fact that nobu and Jeanne are reincarnated into the modern world. I really liked the site for the first 12 or so episodes, after that I sort of lost interest in it really. Almost an 8, but a rating of 7 is deserved. |
| Wow, unexpected ending. Felt rushed, and the worst character in the show: Mitsu, ended up being the savior king. Nobunaga was awesome in this episode though, and DaVinci. Also like that they get reincarnated in the end. |
| Wow! That was some ending!! So, it was actually Mitsuhide who was the Savior King all along. I didn't expect that, and neither did Mitsuhide, I'm sure. Well, at least the part with Mitsuhide killing Nobunaga stayed trued to the history books. King Arthur's motives were purely selfish. He just wanted the Holy Grail to bring his lover back to life. Love that Jeanne and Nobu were reuinted well into the future while viewing DaVinci's possessions. This was a great anime, imho! 8/10 Sent with Mal Updater |

| While I agree that the ending needed another episode to really get an accomplishment I have respect for the ending. I always felt that what the characters did through the series always had a purpose to it. I could always somehow understand and relate to their actions. That showed in the final episode, but it really needed more time. A bit of a shame, but I am so happy I watched this. It will actually get a place in my heart and mind even. |
| The 2002 Tokyo Mew Mew adaptation is not as great as you remember it being. |
| Based on the historical context surrounding these characters I always thought Mitsuhide would have kill Nobunaga and in the end that turned out to be a great part of this finale. Although I always thought it would just be an act of revenge/betrayal and half expected Mitsuhide to in turn be killed by Hideyoshi who would then bring about unification (like in the history books). In the end it turned out to be for the greater good and Mitsuhide turned out to be the saviour king yet I thought it was a bit harsh as a result for Nobu to labelled Judus by da Vinci! |
 |
| I liked how it ended differently than I thought it would. Honestly I enjoyed these last few episodes quite a bit since the mourning episode despite the flaws. |
 |
| Woa that ending, I did not expect Mitsuhide to be the Savior-king tbh. I really liked how Nobunaga and Jeanne were reincarnated and reunited in the future. Hideyoshi was such a bro. IMO the ending felt rushed, but still it was a good ending ! |
| Also at the end where all the students are gathered around the last supper picture, is that the signature blue hairstyle of da Vinci I see off to the left next to the group of people looking at another picture? Did he also get reincarnated perhaps? |
|
| My eyes are rolling so far into the back of skull I am literally staring at my brain which is looking back at me going "Are you serious?" |
| OK ending i guess. But I hoped it would stay a little more true to history and Nobu would be avenged. Didn't like Mitsu that much... The show was a fun ride with some wtf-moments, but nothing special I guess. |
| Ohh I actually liked this ending. But I wasn't expecting Mitsuhide to be the hero there. At least they had reincarnations. |
| Decent ending, although I'll also agree that it felt a bit rushed, and if it had even a few more minutes to elaborate on a few things it could have been a little more fulfilling. I'm not really sure how I feel about Nobu dying by being stabbed with Ichi's comb. -Robunaga said: Also at the end where all the students are gathered around the last supper picture, is that the signature blue hairstyle of da Vinci I see off to the left next to the group of people looking at another picture? Did he also get reincarnated perhaps? I noticed it too, and from the looks of it, it seems like he's the museum curator. Quite a fitting role for him, all things considered. |
| Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast. Yeah. I said it. |
| That felt like a forced happy ending for me. I knew the Nobu x Jeanne was coming, but wow that was sudden. o-o It was a fun ride though. |
| for me was wonderful : nobu->sacrifice love=chaos... nobu<3jeanne impossible guess future |
| Pretty solid ending. I lmao'd so damn hard when Arthur was killed. Funniest death scene I've scene in a long time. Mitsu was the saviour king all along? :o Now I didnt see that coming. And this is how they'll make season 2. Nobu's reincarnation finds excalibur and decides to plunge the world in chaos. |
| "Ichihime I have found my path!" The first thing that came to mind was "yeah you killed both her brothers :/ " I know it was supposed to go that way but maybe if he just said "I have found my path" then it would have sounded more appropriate. I don't know how I feel about this. A lot of "ooh!" and "meh" reactions from me from episode 1-24. I still feel like the author tried to mix in a ton of different ideas, threw it on a wall to see which one sticks. I'm not sure yet if the one that stuck are good or bad. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| Now this ending....is GOOD...I already had a half expectation that, Mitsuhide will Kill Nobunaga in the end. (based on Japan's History). The reincarnation thing...well, I did also expected that little, but not the one as I expected...it became a modern world, while Nobu and Jeanne are students...(let me guess, they're from different school), and what happened, to Mitsu,Hideyoshi, and the others from their Era? I also wonder about the Western Star...what happened to it? Destroyed or Rebuilt? |
| Well the ending was somewhat of a twist in sense. So Nobu and Ranmaru became eternal and lived on into the future or something. Overall I enjoyed this series the plot was a nice change of pace. Great episode and series!!! |

I also wonder about the Western Star...what happened to it? Destroyed or Rebuilt? During the final minute or so of the episode where it shows Nobu and Jeanne reincarnated in the museum. The first scene of that reincarnation/future arc (the one showing an overview of the city that Nobu and Jeanne are in) has the Western Star visible in the sky, so it's atleast safe to say that it hasn't been destroyed. |
| Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast. Yeah. I said it. |
| What a farce...Mitsuhide took Hideyoshi's true glory. Booo... |
 |
AceTheHanyou said: Good Series... Please no Sequel... lol I can already imagine Nobu running around terrorizing High School kids and Jeanne tryna to protect them and him at the same time. Plus the others probably wouldn't fit in. It'll just be weird. Don't do it! we'll that would be a good OVA....OVA ONLY...just to break the ice...with that ending...hahahaha |
| I'm glad I stuck with this show. While it wasn't of the highest quality, I had fun watching all my favorite historical characters fight each other to the death. The ending was pretty good for a show that was looking to become a derailment at any moment. I liked how Nobunaga didn't take Arthur's offer to heal Joan and just blasted through everything in spite of her condition. |
| I laughed at Aurthur getting crushed by the dragons. From episode 6-12 this looked like it had quite a bit of potential but then they started telling us such and such happened, instead of actually showing and then it went back to my first impression of it, a bit better than meh. I think it would have been better if they had just 24 episodes that focused on the Eastern Star unification or an attempt at such, with another 24 episodes for when the rest of the round table made their move. |
 |
| LOL at the ending. Interesting ending but it felt a bit rushed towards the end. A lot of random stuffs happened in the last episode. A lot of "oh really?" moments... Not a bad series overall but I can't really say it was extremely good either. |
bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| First time a anime has put my feelings in a "wtf branded blender" so i cant tell if this show is good or average, also dont know what to think of that ending. Pretty gruesome episode with the crushing, the hole to hell, the disintegration and of cousre..... the comb to the throat.... ruthless.... still hate mitsu that bastard though I really like jeanna and nobu as a couple too and how it was portrayed in this episode.... quite nice. |
| Powered by yuri. Needless to say, I finish all anime I start, no matter my initial opinion, no matter how bad it gets, I WILL FINISH IT! http://www.anime-planet.com/users/zunderdog24  |
| Still need to finish this series. I stopped at around 20 or something because it became to retarded for me. Guess the ending seems like fun but of course lots of BS. Oh well, will finish this in the coming days for the heck of it. |
| What a trainwreck ending! I had hoped to see Ichi's and Caesar's revival. 4/10. |
 |
| So Arthur was an old guy. He wanted to bring back his dead girlfriend? Weird. Da Vinci also died. Suicide much? Oh well. Jeanne is a weird woman that's for sure. According to Da Vinci, Mitsu is the Savior King? I got confused on that. In the end, Nobu and Jeanne were reincarnated. I wonder if Nobu and the others who died, reunited in heaven. It's good I guess. 7/10 |
| It was inevitable that Jeanne is the worst character of this terrible show. 5/10 |
HattiewithSugar said: This is about all I can say.Goddamn, I don't even know WHAT to think. All I know is that I did NOT see that coming. I feel so empty after this ending ;__; Not many animes get me so immersed. I hope so much for a modern version of this story. After all Nobu and Jeanne got reborned in the modern world, that means that it's a place for them == a place where Nobu can wage war. 1. Characters. +1. This anime had charactecters that won me from the very beginning - be it just Da Vinci(and Saru), but as the series went on, Nobu won me as well, and of course, Caesar became my fave and of course Ichii. Overall score: 9/10.If it wasn't Tokyo Ravens, this anime would have been my current favorite of the year.2. Atmosphere. +1. It was really great in my opinion, at the very worst it was never lacking. 3. OST. +1. I loved the first OP and ED, they were really epic. Then the themes were great as well, and two or three episodes in, and I was loving the 2nd OP and ED. This anime has the most epic OPs and EDs this year for sure. 4. Animation. Can I complain about it? Not really, the style fits a samurai, and the anime didn't call for a better animation quality. 5. Background story. +1. There was not much, but the story didn't need more really. 6. Storyline. +1. This is an anime with a rarely consistent storyline. You may not know what's going to happen next(which isn't really bad), but when you look back you can see that it's a really stable storyline. 7. Ending. +1. It wasn't bad. Actually it was better than what I've hoped for. It did make me nostalgic(though the story has just ended), but that means it was actually good. 8. Drama. +1. Unexpectedly, for the silly style the anime started with, the drama was fast to strike and it was actually good, ever since Nobukatsu's death, and remained this way until the very end. 9. Overall affect. +1. This anime was fast to win my attention and kept me interested for the whole run which is rarely the case with even many of my favorite animes. It was epic and it never failed to deliver. I loved the characters, the action and I was actually interested what was going to hapen next. I liked it until the very end and I felt really bad when it ended the way it did, desiring an another-world continuation. 10. Bonus score: +1. For this anime's epicness, and especially for Caesar - the guy who delivered all his life and even got Ichi, ultimately winning in the end. Definitely one of my all-time favorites. |

| great and unexpected ending even if it was a bit rushed in the end the series was a big surprise especially since at first it seemed like an incredibly weird mix of historical figures but the way the story unfolded was nicely done and reminded me of classic jrpgs and it had a frew surprises and turns art was good. animations and battles could have been better but it did not really bother me the focus never really seemed to be the action anyway ost was great 8/10 would have been a 9 as i had the series for most of the time but it felt a bit rushed at times great series |
| I think the final episode was an excellent finish to a great anime! Nobunaga resumed his role of the Destroyer-King, and used his power of destruction to consume destruction only, a great revelation. Mitsuhide was the true Savior-King, and vows to Nobunaga, to bring world peace. The best part of this episode was when I saw it transition to the modern world. Basically, the whole anime was history itself, retold combining Western History with Eastern History, and a bunch of spiritual powers and mechas. I loved that! And know the anime ends with Nobunaga and Jeanne meeting each other in their next lives, like the proclaimed right before they died. They really should make an OVA showing their life in the modern world or something! I just got to see that romance. |

| 6/10 Had it's entertaining moments, but all in all it was more like a waste of time. |
| Wow a very trollish final episode O_O This was a very fun series to follow, the pacing was somewhat off at some points but overall it was entertaining enough. This last episode felt a little too rushed, if it was divided into two episodes I think I would have liked it more. But oh well :) Nobu and Jeanne in the future o.o 5/5 for this episode. 7.5/10 for series :) "It was inevitable!" |

AlexTheRiot said: LOL MITSU SAVED THE ... WORLD Exacty what I was hoping would happen, happened. After Arthur died, he decided he would take it all upon himself, that he would kill Nobu of his own will. But nobody expected doing that would prove him the Savior King. ... classic. I really liked the twist with Nobu devouring the ability to make war, Jeanne holding his destruction back to protect the people, and of course Mitsu stopping him before he could devour anymore, and stopping the regalias. I really couldn't be more pleased with this ending. ^ This |
 |
| Mitsuhide's redemption felt very forced to be honest, and the sudden appearance of Guinevere out of the proverbial blue was a facepalm moment for me. And you would have assumed that once Arthur and Nobunaga met, their encounter would feel more momentous. But it really didn't feel that way. This show had a a lot of promise at some point, but the script was all over the place IMO. Even the mecha that are Kawamori's specialty were kind of meh. I hope that Kawamori has a much better writing/production team for the upcoming Macross project. |

| Meh, didnt really like the ending. Mitsu, betrayer is a savior king, old geezer crazy about reviving his girlfriend started invading everyone and the title of destroyer king goes to Nobu... At least it was better then Aquarion EMO, i mean Evol. |
| Da Vinci random death - bullshit Nobunaga devouring power to create wars - bullshit Jeanne wanting to spend her life with the destroyer king (even though if he gets his way and destroys the world they won't be together for long...) - bullshit Reincarnation in modern times - UTTER F'IN BULLSHIT. This was so dissapointing. So dissapointing it left me speechless for a while. Oh and by the way - everything just to rez a single girl... Yeah, I'm completely sold on that. Music was pretty good though. Exacty what I was hoping would happen, happened. After Arthur died, he decided he would take it all upon himself, that he would kill Nobu of his own will. But nobody expected doing that would prove him the Savior King. ... classic. I really liked the twist with Nobu devouring the ability to make war, Jeanne holding his destruction back to protect the people, and of course Mitsu stopping him before he could devour anymore, and stopping the regalias.

| I am glad this anime was a decent ending . The fact that Mitsu shot the guy who shot Jeanne I was glad man ,how there he try kill yet another ship. Which reminds me this show has so many ships and my most favorite died. Nobunaga and Jeanne <3 At the end they show their feelings ( oh why?) I didn't feel that it was forced. Nobunaga against Alexander and the two dragons were cool . Arthur being crush by it was so ironic That twist with Mitsu being the savior king was a shocker I thought it be Hideyoshi. I can't believe the fight with Mitsu and Nobu not what I expected and the Comb ?! Wth I didn't want Nobu to die but since his woman was dying might as well?! Dam it I wanted them show the kiss........ The reincarnation was a nice conclusion just like in the beginning ,they meet and meet again. Great way to end the series with great music, action love and fate . I give this a 9.5 / 10 |
