| At first I was like "Damn! This show looks promising" .. Then it kinda went downhill, but hopefully they were just doing some character development. Definitely gonna continue to see where it goes. |
| Even though not a lot of stuff happened I still enjoyed it because of the characters. Seems there are a lot of good voice actors in this one and the characters were fun and... they look good.. I just hope something more exciting happens next episode as this was quite uneventful. |
 |
| That bit of animation was pretty good, looking forward to more of that. P: But oh God, the bishies. I don't have a problem with bishies, but there are so many of them and I can just predict who the fangirls are going to slash with each other... |
| I didn't really like it. The characters were a little annoying, they argued nearly every time they opened their mouths, and even if that dude, Heisuke?, was about to leak 'top secret' information the punch seemed random and stupid. It's also still hard for me to see these bishies as Shinsengumi members even though I do love the character design >.> Well it's only the first episode, here's hoping it gets better~ |
 |
| Not good at all...not my type of stuff.>___> |

 |
| Historical + swords + decent animation = I'm satisfied. I'll keep watching. :] |
| Hmm kinda reminded me of Vampire Knight zZzZzZzZz |
| Was this... the yaoi version of the Gintama Shinsengumi...? |

From what i understood he doesn't like very much, dynamic women, evil girls or sexy revealing females. Doesn't he start calling them bitches and whores? No the only girl I like is Sawako so I guess the appreciation I have for other girls is either looks or personality kind of like Sawako. Sawako....my love in anime.....no other girl is more perfect than her. |

| Okay, so, I watched this for, well, the bishies only. And I can honestly say, I have no idea what the story is about.The guys were hot though. Enlighten me if you can, please. |
 |
| The beginning had me i thought this anime was going to reall badass. Untill half-through i realize they are mostly standing around talking about alot of boring things. And i also realize the overuse of bishi-characters on bother genders, that just kind of seemed very lame to me. but other than that the animation was nice and for a shoujo there was alot of blood, just hope theres action on the way. |
| It was alright ;) I need to watch some more episodes to judge this anime ^-^ |
| AAH!! I REMEMBER WHERE I FIRST SAW THE ANIMATION STYLE NOW! SHIT! O_O;; It was Princess Princess...those FREAKING EYES. xD LAWL And I remember it NOW coz...of the music playing right now. (Princess Princess ED xD lawl) how ironic. xD |
     |
| I liked it, will continue watching, didn't mind the exposition, but hopefully things will get to pick up in later episodes. |
| i like it. didnt really had that much expectations but it was great. kinda like the heisuke guy=D anyways it was a great first ep. the OP and ED is also nice:) didnt really expect to be a reverse harem animeXD |
| 吐く No... this is lol show. |

No, I'd say it's the opposite. All these characters are based on real historical figures. And in Gintama their names were all altered. In Hakuouki they appear the same they were in the history. |

| FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFbishie harem series... I don't even... |
| Ahhh reverse harem... my guilty pleasure. I never played the game but I came across many fan videos a while back and fell in love with it even though I had no idea what the story was. So I was really happy and excited with this episode. ^-^ |

(Princess Princess ED xD lawl) how ironic. xD And I knew I wouldn't be the only person who noticed this!!! Since I didn't expect much from the show, it didn't disappoint me. All I like about it are the OP ( both animation itself and the song ), character design and protagonists' voice actors. It's Roy Mustang in disguise! and Chizuru's seiyu is Shoukei's from Juuni Kokki!! |
| First episode was decent, the art is cool. |
| uhhh damn this anime looked cool in the pic x.x its a shoujo genre so im gonna drop it |
 I signed my screen and now its all smeary "When you meet your God tell him to leave me alone." check out my bloghttp://corpse69.wordpress.com/ fix MAL already |
| unlike most people here I actually really liked it XD Samurais~ <33 And looks like there'll be sum romance later on I personally have nothing against the bishies. And no I'm not a yaoi fangirl (yaoi fangirls actually tend to annoy me o.e) Good first episode, animation was good, can't wait for the next one :3 |
| Seiyuu and bishie feast! However it didn't meet my expectations (and I thought I'd learn)... Chizuru was indeed annoying and the rest of the charas felt awkward. shadowsword said: The horror... -_-Hmm kinda reminded me of Vampire Knight |
 |
| interesting, i wonder if this is going to be a reverse harem? |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
| This anime is pretty interesting, I kinda don't like how Souji is though.. but I'll get used to it. Toshi looks good. :3 The OP looks good, but the ED.. a bit too shoujo for my taste. But then again, I think it is under the shoujo genre.. o.o |

Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| God, that was boring! I almost fell asleep while watching >.< Don't really mind bishies, but zero action + damsel in distress = not cool at all. I'll probably watch one or two more episodes in the hope that the story picks up, but as it is now, that's not my series. Maybe because I'm not interested in slashing and prefer strong and capable females. |
| This show.. will probably be lame. With Good samurai vs Bad samurai. Bleh.. I was expecting another Kenshin: Trust and Betrayal show.. cuz of the studio.. But meh.. who knows.. |
| Amatsuki!! |
Kozooo said: cuz of the studio. Hey, it's deen, what did you expect except crap? |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| I liked it, even though as I watched it I had flashes of Ouran HSHC, because of the first episode gender mix up. In this case, though, how can you honestly see Chizuru as a boy? I'll stick around only if it gets a tad more interesting... |

No, I'd say it's the opposite. All these characters are based on real historical figures. And in Gintama their names were all altered. In Hakuouki they appear the same they were in the history. Kondo, Okita and Hijikata are sort of like their Gintama counterparts. Especially Okita. That's becasue of the rumours about what kind of people all of them were. Hijikata was called a demonic vice commander for real, he was rather cold-blooded and killed lots of people. Kondo was a kind and a VERY respectable person that sacrificed himself for the sake of his people (it didn't help much in the end really) Okita died of tuberculosis while he was very young. Also was on the same terms with Hijikata as in Gintama and Hakuouki. He also liked children a lot, despite his a bit sadistic personality. And it's said that when he was dying in a hospital, no one had the courage to tell him that Kondo's been executed, because they all thought Okita was very kind and since he looked up to Kondo, they didn't want to sadden him. Saito was often a spy, a rather cold blooded person too, could play any role his duty demanded. Sanosuke and Shinpachi were drinkers, good friends and party dudes. I don't remember what happened to them, but it's said that Sano survived everything and fled to China. I don't remember about Heisuke. Also, such people as Yamazaki and Katsura existed as well. I don't remember their real first names. Judging from the OP, Yamazaki will appear in Hakuouki. He looks nothing like Gintama's Yamazaki though xD That's just bits and pieces of history, you should listen at school xP |

| As long as boys wont say "i love you" stuffs to each other i'll watch this anime. I liked the characters design, graphics and story. Hope there will be more blood and action. |
 |
| Boy, was I fooled by that bad-ass looking pic, but hey, it thought it was kinda nice. |
 |
| kinda feel like i'm watching a bastard child of Mulan and Basilisk right now. moderately interesting. i'll give it a few more episodes. |
