Oda Cinnamon Nobunaga

The anime is very enjoyable, particularly if you are a dog person, it is also a slice of life to the max, so if you do not enjoy the genre, this anime isn't for you. It is overall fun but the amount of enjoyment very much depends on the person. I am European and so have no understanding of this historical context, therefore the historical context is something the anime could attempt to explain a bit more, although the target audience is likely to be mostly Japanese. The animation is average, the opening is good, and the credits are amazing. If you're looking for a ... complex action-packed, story-heavy anime this is really not for you, however, if you just want to spend a fun 24 minutes enjoying an original, humour-filled, and entertaining slice of life this is for you.

so this show is nothing remarkable but still cute. I have a bit of a guilty pleasure for the "talking dog genre" which I share with a friend. I enjoy the new take on the genre and commend the creators for taking a risk for the sake of originality. I was talking to my friend about the anime the other day and we came to the conclusion that this anime receives a large amount of unearnt hate, despite the fact that in a lot of ways it is far more interesting than some far more popular shows from this season such as nekopara. Overall cute anime, would recommend for anyone who want to just give themselves a mental break and watch a cute, funny, non-challenging anime about dogs reminiscing about how they once tried to murder eachother

To start off, its a fun anime! Its light hearted, cute as hell, and its an anime to definitely relax to.

The premise is basically warlords from feudal Japan that have long since been deceased have been reborn into a variety of animals. But mostly dogs.

All of them have long since settled into their new lives well considering they all have owners who spoil them to one degree or the other. And considering how rough their old lives could be its no wonder they fell into this one so well!

Consider having a harem of 20 and all the drama that comes with it! And also ... the war, can't forget the war.

Its a fun anime, nothing serious in the lightest, and it honestly didn't teach me that much in the long run. Its just a warm slice of life that can make you feel a bit better after a bad day. And me being me I needed this many many a time!

Plus the after credit endings include actual dogs! PUPPERS!!! Its really cute so I'd advise on either skipping the credits (which...at least watch it once bc those RL dogs are in it) or enjoying the credits with the end scene.

The gist of my review is this: Give this a shot!

I was very skeptical of the premise of this show. Firstly, is YET ANOTHER Nobunaga show? Second, the shtick is that they are dogs? thirdly, comedy is very hit or miss for translations.. leaning toward the miss in most cases. But, after one episode, I was left with a huge smile on my face and I was really surprised how much I enjoyed watching this show.

First, it's not another Nobunaga show. I mean, it is, but not really. It never takes the Nobunaga thing seriously. It's the ... butt of countless jokes and in all honesty most of them land really well even if you know nothing of Nobunaga.

Second, yes, the shtick is dogs, but they really do a great job at delivering on the cute and funny.

Thirdly, well.. like I said in the first and second points: It's funny.

It might not be Anime of the year: the animation is middling at best and there is no real story progression, it's just "Hey these warlords are now dogs, isn't that funny?" and it is!

I commend the studio for doing something out of the box because I haven't seen an anime like this before. The contrast between the fierce warriors of history and the cute little dogs they've been reincarnated into is amusing and hilarious. Also, if you're a dog person like me, you'll enjoy this one a lot, especially the video of the real dogs at the end of each episode.

I feel like they could have gone more in depth with the history lesson of each warrior instead of just giving us names so that the viewers could understand what sort of relationships these dogs had in the ... past lives. Also, I hope it actually finds a serious antagonist or something.
