THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Ok, for the first 1 minute, including the OP, I can say that this anime looks like a cross of Inuyasha and Hyakka Ryouran: Samurai Girls.

Also, I can see the OP having a VERY GOOD Touhou parody of it; I'm actually looking forward to that release. :D

I might just stay with this one.

I was ready to give this a bit of a chance up until



Based on a pachinko game, eh? No wonder it has the feel of "Rio" about it. I'd rather see an anime version of Sengoku Rance......

The beginning of the episode led me to believe that this show would be pretty bad, but as I continued watching it turned out decently; it kept me entertained through the episode. I do, though, have two current problems:

Hideyoshi still hasn't figured out the alternate universe thing("Time Paradox")? Especially after witnessing flames shoot out of a sword?

Who designed that armor? (I know they have to keep it a bit interesting in appearance, but come on)

I'm going to keep my expectations low, as we all ]i]probably should for this series.

Edit: I did not know this was based off a plachinko machine, but it feels much better than Rio(ew) did for me. I hope it strays away from the path Rio took.

I didn't watch the episode yet but there's a talking dog?! I mean, really? That takes all the coolness out of it. Sengoku Basara is so much win.

Awesome. Exactly what I expected, a not-too-serious, but not-too-dumb old japan anime. I can actually see myself enjoying this. Though I am wondering what's with the talking dog.

Giving it a couple more eps, just for Last Order.

Interesting first episode, that cell phone conversation made me lol.
That was a weird way to end the episode, a talking dog. O.O Anyways, looking forward to the next episode.

Not much of a start, but this was OK. Since the PVs didn't show anything from the animation itself, I watched game's videos. So guess what am I downloading yet to play ^^

Reminds me of Koihime Musou, another of my favorites. I'm definitely going to enjoy this show. Cute girls are a big plus. Hope to see some of the other characters soon, though, because so far only Hideoyoshi has been interesting. Nobunga is kind of bleh but still hot.

Well gentlemen, what we have here is a cross between A Kid in King Arthur's Court meets Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Girls.

Overall, the plots not entirely original and could be much better but it's a fairly amusing and mildly entertaining first episode, to me, better than Rio: Rainbow Gate. The animation is servicable. Overall, an average debut, though I found it amusing with the characters trying to break the cell phone and the big lipped talking puppy dog moment.

6.5/10 or 7/10

Not the best, but certainly one I'll continue.

Anyone else surprised by a lack of fanservice and panty shots in this?

Let me rephrase that into entirely not original, as there's a Three Kingdoms adaptation nearly every season. Now if this had been the female verion of Sengoku Basara, I might've liked it. As it is, 1 ep was more than enough for me.

Not too great, but I'll give it another episode or two to try and catch me. The gender-swapped historical premise is very strange. Kind of shows off the culture barrier between the eastern/western worlds. Imagine if someone made a show over here in America that gender swapped the founding fathers or something, people would freak.

This show looks unexpectedly promising. People are rating it low right away because that characters look like something out of Samurai Girls, but it's not like it's an ecchi. I'll keep watching this for sure, but I'm wondering about that talking dog.

Definitely average, I had to lower my expectations the slightest the more I watched it.
It's really hard to tell where this anime will go from my eyes.. but I just hope it stays its average or pumps it up a bit more.

Also, am I the only one who didn't think of Samurai Girls? I mean, just because they're all girls..;

Ahahaha I have a feeling that Hideyoshi will learn about history in that adventure and get perfect during the exam the moment she return XDD or maybe Hideyoshi in the history book was really her lolol XDD Time paradox indeed XDD Imma stick to this series to see how it turns out XDD

But seriously, "Why are they girls?" XDD I'm not complaining though yet this will cause japanese students to misunderstand their gender XDD

I thought of this while watching, myself. The closest that we'll ever get is Histeria.

As far this anime itself, I only kind of like it so far. The protagonist is a complete idiot who never shuts up, but everything else is enjoyable. In particular, I like the artwork and character design. As others have mentioned, it's reminiscent of Koihime Musou, which is a show that I enjoyed. If the main character gains some competence, I'll probably enjoy this.

As a sidenote, it's good to see Nobunaga portrayed as something other than just a scheming evil guy. He's normally like Japan's Official National Villain or something, so this is a nice change of pace.

I do not see samurai girls in this at all personally, other than there are female samurais I mean. It certainly never came to mind when watching it.

I need a Tekeda Shingen to keep my interestin this time period personally. Other than that I can not say much, I do not think the first episode showed what the anime as a whole will be like.

A very simple minded lead and the other characters seemed interesting in a way.
I liked it how she got late in class and when she mentioned the diet part i had to laugh considering the food she was talking about Hamburger Mayo ketchup.

I think this might actually be a pretty nice view very simple and easy going.

I think when she gets back home after everything is finished she'll pass the test. I also see a connection with the teacher and her office room she had a set of armor and stuff maybe she owns the crimson armor.
