So they all unite to defeat Dougen. Suzune sacrifices herself in the process.

It was an ok series. Nothing ground breaking or anything but something to watch that was pretty ecchi at times. Dunno what they have in store for the short specials (pretty sure they'll be pure fanservice) but maybe something real nice...

Never mind last one. Just watched it and first of all, adios Suzune :(, you will be missed. As for the last episode, was a good one. As predicted, Hibari was saved by her friend Yagyuu, then end up reuniting with the others. Then the final fight against Dougen and with Asuka's friends and her scroll, she and Homura defeat him, then he does a last act of defiance which Suzune gives her life to stop him. Overall, anime had ups and downs, and I did not like how they treated Hibari to be too reliant on others, but she is still my favorite :).

That whole ending was changed, and seriously why no Dougen vs Rin and maybe Daidouji, I see that he's quite powerful alone and could be a match for both, we get Suzune sacrificing herself and Dougen instead, seriously the heroic sacrifice ending has been way overdone and the Hebi girls saving their classmates was touching. Also, why didn't they show the Hebi girls after the fire, they must've survived somehow. Overall the anime is hit and miss with a balance of both, and it would've been better if they followed the games and not so much manga/drama CD so much.

The shorts are all fanservice, I'm over 100% sure of it.

7.8/10

As an ecchi lover, this was a good show to watch for the fanservice. The plot was merely an extension of it by providing reasons for cute girls having their clothes ripped off :D

Overall, 7/10. I wish it had atleast one more ep so that the latter eps wouldn't be so rushed.

I expected much worse for a ecchi action video game adaptation. I liked how the show didn't take itself seriously for the most part, especially given the ridiculous premise. Now please someone localize the 3DS games!
Also, I saw the flatchested girl has two eyes! I wonder if Yagyuu is also wearing an eyepatch just for show..

What a good series. I must say its good to see that the girls were able to team up and work together from both the light and dark faction. Series gets a 9/10 from me.

I hope they make a Second Season or at least some OVA's

Yagyuu & Hibari still the Best Characters in this whole Series. xD
Plus Homura doesn't look half bad with red hair lol.

This could have been a good series, had it not been for the entire focus being on their breasts bouncing and their clothes getting ripped off.
Seriously, it's like they created a story just to give them a reason to jump up and down and for a way for their clothes to get ripped off. Also that last shinobi jutsu where they are in their bikinis, that way "they are faster and whatnot". So pretty much all of the girls were running around in their bikini's. I found that really lame.

I really wanted to like this show, mainly because it's ninja females and they kick ass. But it was all too cheesy. Nevertheless I don't regret watching it. I at least got the bits of a good story there and will think only about that.

Anyways NOW about the episode, I think it's pretty obvious that the girls from the Serpent academy made it out alive. It's even likely that Rin made it out alive as well. So it was a happy ending after all. And with the whole fanservice, never mind the actual story, there will probably be a second season. I will of course watch it. I just hope the money doesn't go into their breast motions and we can actually get a good story/plot out of this.

6/10 for me.

PS the first scene, where Asuka is actually acting like a Shinobi is probably the only good and honest scene.

Hikage blushing was adorable.
Had to laugh at the bunny riding the squid.
Was pending between a 6 and a 7 but the last episode convinced me to give it its 7.
Also really liked how they played the full versions of the opening and ending in the background.

And the end definitely seemed like a second season could be possible. (Although I doubt we'll get one)

A fairly awesome ending to the series. Some how the final boss behave like a joker when he was defeated lol~ Was expecting to see Daidouji vs Rin epic battle but too bad :/ Got so used to seeing Katsuragi groping Asuka's boobs. ==

Won't expect to see Homura and the others joining the light faction since the theme of is "it doesn't matter whether u are from light or dark". But they will always be good rivals.

Ah and I kinda like Yomi now. She's so cute! :3 OVAs full of fan services expected! xD

A lot happens in this final episode but I think the flow and pacing is handled quite well, though it would have been better to spend a bit more time to show how the girls on the two sides shift from enemies to potential friends. Not sure if all the destruction is really necessary for the climax and impact. And at least show us where the snake girls end up.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

I liked the ecchi though I wasn't fond of the character design, the plot was very cliche and a bit stupid at times, it sill could have been a 4 if it wasn't for Hibari.

Compared to other shows of the season, like Vividred Operation, Senran Kagura was quite entertaining. You have to keep in mind that it's a game adaption and usually those tend to suck big time. Fortunately, in this case the show delivered action, ecchi and even a fairly decent plot and that's all you can ask for in this particular case. A fair 7/10 from my side.

A pretty enjoyable series!!!

Good unification of the Light and Dark Factions working together and their secret ninja arts were brilliant. Rin sacrificing herself for everyone felt a bit unneeded, not sure how to elaborate on this scene.

Also, Homura looks like Shana with that glowing crimson red hair!!

Overall an entertaining series. This series had it's very good parts where both the fan service and action were at a good level but some parts could have been focused more or maybe some episodes could have been focused on something else. Nevertheless I thoroughly enjoyed the series and hoping for a potential sequel to this series. A second season/specials/OVA's is likely depending on the success but I think that it will do quite well as it has a lot of potential plot for another season!!

Episode: 5/5

Art: 8.5/10
Story: 8/10
Overall Series: 8/10

Nice end, I'm satisfied with all the Homura and Asuka action. I enjoyed this show a little too much. Tits aside, it had a lot of comedy and melodrama each week. The threats in the show weren't even serious, but instead feel like the girls are part of a stage show overreacting to everything. I loved how they explained silly terms such as mortal combat and the super secret ninja arts.

All the battles were enjoyable to watch. Loved the OP and ED's too (especially the one featuring the Dark Faction cooking). It was all silly but I thought it was great. 7/10.

Why's everyone saying that Suzune is dead? She fell off screen, we never actually saw her death. She's a super ninja, do you honestly think a super ninja would die that easily? No way. She's definitely alive and so are a majority of the dark shinobi, it not all of them. The only one who might have died was Dougen.

First off, nice last episode. A bit predictable, but nice anyways.

Tsundere Yomi was SO CUTE! "Don't get me wrong, it's not like I was protecting you or anything!" Definitely her best line in the show.

"Save your energy. You'll need it for something else." Curse my dirty mind.

All in all, this show gets a 7/10 for me.

Doesn't the purple sparkles indicate that Suzune teleported out of the fire?

She does the same thing when she escapes from the jail cell.

Pretty rushed final episode and the overall battle scenes were really lacking. Can't give this more than a 6/10.

Maybe bring back the Hebi girls with all the other schools from Shinovi Versus, yeah that'd be awesome.

the last episode was okay. the special effects were quite nice and it was a bit sad that rin sacrificed herself (or maybe she's still alive? who knows), but the rest was just okay. too much sudden power and too much clichéd stuff (e.g. "oh, look! useless hibari suddenly has a special power!").

5/10 for this show. i have seen way worse anime, but at the same time senran kagura wasn't anything special. just another anime where the power of friendship saved the day.

I really enjoyed this show. It was fun from beginning to end and there were no boring episodes.

It's a shame that no one mentions that this show is rather intellectual, sporting some interesting and thought-provoking quotes to accompany the lovely art and fantastic ecchi.

I found the saying that light always creates shadows to be quite interesting (either this episode or episode 11) and every episode there was an interesting quote, or sometimes several interesting quotes, like that.

This show was a very pleasant surprise. It has a charm that is all its own.

I started to watch the show because of the ecchi, then was awed by the story, and decided to stick with it until the end, while enjoying the fanservice as well. The ending was really satisfying, though i wonder what happened to the dark faction girls though.

Great action, great fanservice, character designs was a bit off sometimes, but not, thankfully in the fan service parts.

Overall, great series. 8.5 = 9/10.

Why doesn't anyone find Hikage's underwear weird?!

You clearly see her shirt show cleavage. You always see her pants open and see her pubic area(shaved FTW)

and yet when her clothes rip her underwear is clearly covering her pubic region. And the type of "bra" she wears goes up to her neck. It makes no sense! With that said she's my favorite character.

That was the one thing bugging. Overall an okay series.

5~6/10

Anime's been dead to me for awhile so the bar wasn't set high in the first place.
In hentai, you can see anything... chicks with d*cks, angels,demons,snake girls,unfaithful wives, pregnancies and even crossdressers... the list goes on, pal. You name it.
Why you would want to see a heartwarming romance in your porn is beyond me.
