That episode was a step in the right direction after last weeks disaster. Hopefully we'll get a longer arc here with Nobunaga and Mitsuhide.

Looks like its getting serious now. At first i really didn't like the episode...but it wasn't until the end when everything came together for me. Nice episode and next one should be better with more of the characters interacting.

Right when you thought everything was wrapped with everything being a play they seem to go away from that right at the end.

the only words to say on this ep ONORE DECADE!!!

this week meet Akechi Mitsuhide with lost memory & is a detective.
see a headless body corpse yet wonder on it.
the "suspects" oh sure we see those "names" before maybe hmm?
each have different stories but did not do it.
then Akechi Mitsuhide wonder if was Morilanty did it?
ask Morilanty but revealed but it twist also reveal from her & Mitsuhide's "assistant" it was Akechi Mitsuhide did it.
so Akechi Mitsuhide see the body it was Nobunaga?!
cue big what it was all stage play (3 miko give flowers)?!
then the "assistant" tell Mitsuhide say words to say it all.
& ta da it was all dream with Mitsuhide confess i "whacked" Nobunaga?!

indeed this is went from lost memory to mystery to stage play to dream to INCEPTION & yet next ep is part 2 of Mitsuhide story!!!

So the whole thing was all a stage play and I was like o____o

It was....good. There will be more interactions between the characters from what I've seen in the preview for the next episode and I'm definitely excited for next week!

Nice one ^^

That was a very different episode.

(lots of pics below)


At beginning I tought the girls were doing some RP playing Detective.
But in the end it was a play, but then again it was just Akechi's nightmare in where... she killed Nobunaga, you bastards!

I didn't see it coming.
The story may progress now.
(or not, because there are still lots of girls in the opening to introduce)

Next ep a direct continue, like we had with Ambitious princess.

ive never given up and then been pulled back in to a show so many times as this show has done to me. theyve had a couple good episodes in a row and they are continuing mitsuhide for next week so thats another positive.

i was kinda thinking it was gonna be something like a movie shooting or a dream throughout the episode but i shouldve seen the ending coming. the show's first episode starts with mitsuhide's betrayal and she still thinks nobunaga is dead

About time we see Ranmaru and Mitsuhide again.
I still wonder what that mess at the start of episode 1 is.
Akechi and Ranmaru were both loyal retainer of Nobunaga, even though she truly beleive she killed Nobunaga (She wouldn't get that way from a dream) the start of the show tell us otherwhise.
Still maybe Akechi somehow caused all that mess.
All we know is that there was a big pillar of flame and Nobunaga entered it and disapeared into the future, from that point there's 2 way I think this could have went.

-That pillar was the source of all sengoku-era character moving to the future, a kind of portal to the future, either every sengoku-era character took it, either it kept expanding all over Japan or either there were similar pillar in different regions.

-Nobunaga died, followed by Ranmaru and Mitsuhide that couldn't bear losing their leaders. The future we see is the 'sengoku-era general's heaven', basically the place after death. Every leader of the sengoku era died at some point so if we assume that the only way to get there is to die this could makes sense, obviously there's no way to return and I beleive that in the end Nobunaga will chose to stay with her friends in this new world.
A world that isn't in war but in peace, where everyone seem united, a world where those girls could lives as girls instead of warriors, a world where your past ennemy can become your friend. Maybe she'll realise that at some point.

Well, im not sure if i remembered correctly but if im not wrong in the real history Mitsuhide killed Nobunaga in a temple that was on fire. So i THINK that kinda links.

Checking it up you're right, he betrayed him in the end and made him commit seppuku.

This was really good. It reminded me at first of CSI, but given what CSI is based off of it could be any number of investigative stories.

Oooh that ending.

I disliked this episode and when it turned into a play, I was a little confused. At least the final moments more than made up for it.

Awesome episode, this series is quite underrated! I do wonder though what exactly is going on, was everything a dream, a memory; did it really happen or not? Guess I'll find out in the next episodes. 5/5.
