I don't mind since I like her already.
Francis~ the guy I know who'd watch ANYTHING you throw at him xD
(we're also from the same country~ yey~ France.)

That's awesome same country! Vive la France! I like variety....it's always good. This looks like good action too and I can learn from some Japanese history those guy's clan was around in Japan Shinsengum I think
Also...I like Chizuru.
Lija-chan said:
I didn't expect anything AWESOME from her so I expected her to be of less help. -shrugs-
I just like her appearance and looks even though I have Sawako. More importantly I want to see some romance development with her and maybe rage a little if she does get together with a guy I really want her to.
Lija-chan said:
But she's adorable (I'm weak against cuteness just like hers *3*) nohomo. xD
This is a reverse-harem and another from an otome-game so don't expect too much, people.
That's ok the guys are nicely done and I like the action with them. Yes she is adorable.
Lija-chan said:
Only fangirls and fujoishi's would prolly enjoy this.
I'm one of those fangirls. (not into yaoi)
-puts yaoi away-

Yeah I can't wait to see the girls of MAL react to this.....it will be fun.
Lija-chan said:
Subs ARE taking forever. >_>
Can't wait for the next episode already! >3<

Yeah I want to see it with subs too but I will see it soon since it's out now.

In spoiler my anime list for now.

I feel kinda embarrassed to ask... But can someone explain me why the heck did Sano punch Heisuke? ^_^;;
I was like, totally confused about that part.

I think, I'll give this show one or two more episodes to prove it's not a simple Kaze hikaru ripoff turned into harem-stuff - after that, I'll just enjoy the awesome designs and have good laughs at these Shinsengumi-wannabe guys who simply let a girl join them, without any real debate :P

Spoiler alert;

Sano punches Heisuke because he was explaining to Chizuru how there are two Shinsengumis. Each one with their names spelled a bit differently in Japanese. Although the spelling makes no difference in the translation. (The real Shinsengumi actually spelled their name using both kanji depending on the importance of the matter or event they were referring to themselves in.)

Anyway, there's two shinsengumis, one is the group of guys we met in this episode, the other are probably a group of boys who have undergone some kind of medical experiment using drugs/medicine. This is the secret of the shinsengumi which they are trying to keep hidden. Heisuke was running his mouth, pretty much.

Chizuru really does look like a little girl. It's pretty obvious they've chosen to put her with ~Hijikata~ if anyone, but she looks like she'd fit into the role of his 'little sister' better.

Looks this is just fujoshi and yaoi fangirl bait...quite a shame since I thought it sounded like Ruroni Kenshin a bit but I guess not.


Well the Shinsengumi are there and so is Saitou Hajime. He did made a plastic surgery to the bishie side though. I wonder if Batousai can make an appearance.

The show looks to have a serious tone and could have an interesting scenario. I don't know what to think yet. I was sertainly not impressed by the girl but if am reading this right, in the end the shinsengumi guys will have more of a protagonist role than her despite her seeming to be the main role.

You shouldn't be embarrassed because they certainly didn't explain what the hell is going on.
The only thing i picked up is that it seems there are two kinds of Shinsengumi and Heisuke was trying to explain how things are, so he ate a punch because i guess they want to hide it or don't like talking about it.

This is way too bishounen for me and I just watched episode one with some joke subtitles, so I didn't get a thing from the actual story... At the beginning when those two saved her from the zombies he said "Don't talk. My hair is shinier than yours" and she thought "At that time I knew it was true. His hair shined in the moonlight like..."

Ohh man, I think I am dropping this.

Really? From what i understood he doesn't like very much, dynamic women, evil girls or sexy revealing females. Doesn't he start calling them bitches and whores?

You stole my words.

No, seriously, it was boring and cliché, especially after the initial fight which was clean and good. The rest of the episode was not really well executed and the overall concept of the show doesn't please me so much. I'd rather have another Hanasakeru Seishonen :)

In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same.

I'm very disappointed in the characteristics of the main girl. They storyling makes her weak, frail, fragile, and WEAK! I hate how she just results to crying and nonsense. OMG! Like, totally stick-up for yourself! Show some girl-power! I really wish she could fight AND be tough AND still be feminime. But, I guess the main girl is just another disappointment for me, just like many of the new anime these days.

ON THE OTHER HAND, I loved the graphics! I loved the designs of the characters. The guys looked HOTT and the main girl was very pretty. Just that she is WEAK WEAK WEAK makes me lose interest.

Stop saying stuff at Chizuru D:

I'm rather amazed she actually didn't wait for her father and instead disguised herself as a boy and roamed around Kyoto by herself.
(I wouldn't be able to do that... -_-;; I wouldn't have the courage! Dx)
I'm all talk...but no action. -bangs head on wall- <see what I mean here? xD

It's BISHIE paradise.
Originally an otome game.
They need a useless not-so-very damsel but still a damsel in distress girl. (no, it's OK if you don't get it xD)
It's more on romance -with tad bit action here and there-
May lack story/plot/blaaaaaaah
BISHIE HAVEN/HEAVEN.
Chizuru is cute.
It's NOT like VK (which was shitty) it's more like Amatsuki. (please don't compare it to Vampire Knight...eww lawl)

I need my sleep before I explode. Lawl

Eh, I watched this on a whim. It kept my attention. Handsome bishies with swords ftw?

And I heard Gilbert Nightray in there somewhere. I'll definitely keep watching XD

What do they mean by "pitiable young men"?

are they referring to the bishie pretty boys or some other group?

I didn't really like it. The characters were a little annoying, they argued nearly every time they opened their mouths, and even if that dude, Heisuke?, was about to leak 'top secret' information the punch seemed random and stupid. It's also still hard for me to see these bishies as Shinsengumi members even though I do love the character design >.>
