| 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. |
Dashiawia said: Well, we don't know how she came from the sky in the first place so it is hard to say that her reappearance is a deux ex machina. Anyway, to me the show is an interesting experiment of sumi sakuga - and that alone makes it NOT mediocre. Ah, thanks for clearing it up for me. Either way, I'm not going to be following this show seeing how I thought season one was mediocre at best. And knowing that they had to pull a deux ex machina out of their ass to revive Jubei for no apparent reason doesn't help to change my impression for the better. |

Didn't she die along with her other half in the final episode of season one? Yes, she did. I rewatched it about 2 months ago. There was a timeskip though. So maybe we'll get a flashback to how she came back. They changed the end of the frist series for the blu-ray release, at the end Jubei reappears the same way as she did when first appeared, would have made sense to show it as a little recap at the start though. Ah, thanks for clearing it up for me. Either way, I'm not going to be following this show seeing how I thought season one was mediocre at best. And knowing that they had to pull a deux ex machina out of their ass to revive Jubei for no apparent reason doesn't help to change my impression for the better. It wasn't a Deus Ex Machina because the last kiss of Muneirika and Jubei would have made transfered Jubei Master Samurai Soul into her body definitively and her "cute girl" soul would have been sent away forever. So only her Master Samurai Soul was destroy and her "cute girl" soul who helped during the battle came back. It was established that Jubey has a double personality/soul going on, so on this season because her Master Samurai soul is dead she can't transform anymore. Put it simple : Only her master samurai soul died, so her other soul materialized a body and came back to her friends. symbv said: meneliksempai said: Two gangs of girls, one from the good side one from the supposedly bad side, fighting one-to-one in matches (and the bad side started by being the more powerful side).

Now that you put it this way it makes a lot of sense. Although poor Katsunee was beaten in half a move, and it doesn't count as a fight for her ^_^ The PV features a uber cyber Master Samurai at the end, so maybe the two gangs might band together to fight the real big bad at the end. |

Plus the Historical Musashi is literally a Japanese Military National Hero, AFAIK his teachings were a favorite reading during the times of Imperial Japan. Making his alter ego into a bad guy doesn't fit really well with Japanese mythology. A funny trivia about Musashi is that He challenged one of Japans best swordsman to a duel to death, then showed up late with a wooden sword ... and still won because the insult was such that his opponent lost his cool and wanted to cut him into pieces, so Musashi took advantage of his recklessness. Hope they manage to translate this into the show in some way. ^_^ |

Similar indeed, but there's still a huge quality gap between Hyakka Ryouran and Senran Kagura. The latter was a show that took itself too seriously while it was absolutely impossible for the viewer to take it seriously as long as the viewer is not a grade schooler (which isn't supposed to be the intended target audience). HR, on the other hand, just tries to entertain. And succeeds in that. And the art style is godly of course. |
| Ha. Miyamoto Musashi is now my favorite girl here. |
 |
| I'm glad they kept the art style of the first series. This one seems to have oodles of fanservice too. |
Whoa, Juubei is alive, didn't she sacrifice herself from the previous season? |
| Oh man it's uncensored! Excellent. And here I was worried I'd have to wait for all the blu-rays to release just like TLRD. As for the ep, it was a nice way to re-introduce the characters as well as the new ones. Kanetsugu <3 |

She had two souls in her body, of one of the souls sacrificed itself to destroy the Gisen, the other soul materialized into a body and returned. Don't ask me how, Master Samurai can materialize bodies in this series ;) The BD ending shows her coming back. |
| one ugly girl with brown skin and 2 girls with ugly moles, might drop |
 ^ Why isn't this updating... |
| Glad it's back, It was a pretty good first episode. |
| If strength is justice, then is powerlessness a crime? |
| my first reaction"HOLY SHIT UNCENSORED",and love the kyun kyun part |
pilyo00 said: Moe , Moe , Kyun , Kyun "Get Yummy" LOLOLOL I was laughing at that too. Anyways good start to the series. I kinda miss the ink censor but this is good too. Nice to see my senhime service on the first episode. The dark samurai looks badass. Can't wait to see whose the next master samurai. |

| I am so relieve knowing that this Anime is all about fanservice and comedy . By the way, I totally forgot what happen last season .I guess its not compulsory to know that xD |
| Are those dark samurai based off the "See no evil, Speak no evil, hear no evil" thing? Seems like it to me with the way they're designed. First episode was hopefully this season won't tank |
 |
| yep,its uncensored. no more bothering dots -sigh anyway... what did i miss???! when did yubei come back???!!! heru...pu? |

| Maid cafe's and shadow samurai; what a way to start the second season. The first season was alright, so we'll see if this one will succeed in keeping me interested. :) |
 |
| It's still as bad as the first season. I hope it gets better in the next episodes otherwise I will drop it. |

|
| Mehh, haven't season the first season, don't think I'll ever watch it. I'll watch this since it's uncensored. |
 |
| Very nice. THANK GOD AT-X is showing uncensored episodes....now we don't have to wait a freaking year to see the BD releases. Good to see all the characters once more. |

| Oh, a maid café. |
 |
| I didn't find this to be a very interesting first episode, but they did introduce new characters and a conflict as well as the changes made to the dojo, I hope it will get more entertaining, I'm pretty sure it will. |

Juubey had two souls, remember her sadistic master Samurai persona that kicked Hanzou's ass ?

She never actually transformed, it was just that her master Samurai soul took over her body each time Muneirika kissed her, in the last fight of the last season that soul wasn't on her body when it was destroyed. symbv said: meneliksempai said: A funny trivia about Musashi is that He challenged one of Japans best swordsman to a duel to death, then showed up late with a wooden sword ... and still won because the insult was such that his opponent lost his cool and wanted to cut him into pieces, so Musashi took advantage of his recklessness.

This season is going to hilarious if they can play around with Japan's biggest legends. |

| How can people stand to be in something like a maid cafe i mean i would get terribly annoyed if people act that way towards me. The episode was nice they got owned pretty badly tho. |

| Finally got a chance to watch it and kind of wished I could take back the 24 minutes I wasted on it. Muneakira goes on a journey and comes back a bigger pussy and even more useless than last season if you can believe that. I think they should make Yoshihiko the MC because he at least has a pair and doesn't act like a kindergarten at the sight of panties. The girls would be the only thing worth watching if this episode wasn't just pure idiocy. |
| The most adorable and funny "Moe-moe-kyun-kyun" I've ever seen. I'm sorry but I cant help it: Moe-moe-kyun-kyun! Moe-moe-kyun-kyun! Be yummy!be yummy! Kyun!<3 I also loved the DBZ reference with the "scouter" glasses.The only thing to make it perfect was to answer at the question "The power level is over 9000!!!!". |

| don't you just love it when the antagonist just casually shows up around the protagonists :D |
