Idk about leadership but Saburou better be ready. I find his battle outfit to be slightly flameboyant. I'm kinda hoping Kichou will play a more crucial role in this series though.

Also, I'm not sure what that fire symbolizes at the end but I got a bad feeling...

It seems like he's battling like playing a game with the history book as guide book. Monkey face guy in his own plan...

Is that FukuJun's character who likes women? lol @ Ero book that current Nobu gave to him when he was little. And what the... with bunches of women there. Little sister (Aoi Yuuki) appearance, who is jealous of him only hanging out with fiance.

"Love letter" seems to work. So FukuJun's character's name changed to Ieyasu Tokugawa.

Oh, no at the history book. And was that the real Nobu at the end? If so, it's nice to see him since the swap in first ep.

Oi-chan, I want more of her, she's fun.

Tokugawa Ieyasu is shown from and is inspired by a porn mag, so that's how the Edo harem was invented, genius!

Oh Saburou, you inglorious bastard, bribing the Mine clans and locals with sweet words and money.

You're even making use of the malicious Tokichiro while you still can.

Well, that's this series in a nutshell, a vividly drawn parody of japanese history. Fun, somewhat dramatic and serious when it needs to be and isn't including lollies or famous rulers as hot anime chicks.

4/5 - Very well done, despite the somewhat schizophrenic pace.

You call it political strategy he calls it "love letters".

A lot of time has passed, what about Saburou's family back home?

The monkey burned the book. Bad business leaving it lying around but on the bright side it's good that he didn't read it.

That porn magazine becoming Matsudaira's family treasure and the inspiration to his womanizer self was hilarious!
Why'd Saburo give such a magazine to a kid like him in the first place anyways? XD

Oichi saying Tokichiro looks like a monkey just confirmed that he'd become Hideyoshi later on..

Saburo's political strategy of sending love letters to Mino and winning the castle without was genius! XD

Matsudaira changes his name to Ieyasu. Saburo's reactions were pretty funny though!

Good episode. Damn, there goes the textbook. :O . Nobunaga is soon to meet Saburo. What role will he play now?

Noooo not the textbook! If only Saburo had paid attention in history class maybe burning the textbook wouldn't be so terrible x_x

Nobunaga coming back into the story? Looking forward to it!

Tokugawa Ieyasuuuuuuu

How much time has passed, exactly?! Saburou's hair has grown out and he gave his porn mag to a preteen who is now an adult! Or old enough in war, at least.

Still hate the "uehehehehe" nonsense of Assassin-san but it's history, so. *shrug*

Was ready to throw my cup of coffee at the wall if he ever stole Saburou's history book and read it but instead he burns it! Yes! Actually, it's possible he would not be able to read it since I'm not certain hiragana may have still been used solely by women and not yet circulated for common use. Saburou can't read the contents of his Love Letters, after all.

He's 500 years or so in the past so... probably nothing? Though I imagine if he ever came back they'd wonder at the change in age.

A bit dissapointed because they didnt make an episode when Saburou meet Takechiyo for the first time lol. But it's okay haha XDD

Oichi has brother complex XD. but.. why i feel she is look beautiful than Kichou ? :v
LOL'ed because saburou cant read the love letter :v but said "Okay"

OH NO THE TEXTBOOK ! (but i dont know the scene when that monkey burned Saburou's textbook actually shown in the manga or not)

Looks like Saburou need to get serious from now on.

I really wonder how much time has passed.

Anyway, good episode as always. The villain is starting to seriously plotting something, and the book has been burnt, therefore shit is going to happen in this history. That's why you kids should always study History, 'cause if you will ever go back in time then you won't have these kind of problems. (But jokes aside, I think Saburou has something up his sleeves)

The new girl is fine I guess, we won't see her that much I think, but that said, Kichou is always so based.

The real Nobunaga will come soon hopefully, looking forward to see what will happen between the two double.

Waaaa.... the textbook!!! But on second thought, the textbook did not help that much to Saburou. It provided him probably the general view of history but it was still up to him. I wonder what will the real Nobunaga do.

Tokugawa Ieyasu read porn as a kid XD Saburou really screwed up history eh? But I do wonder, how much time has passed. Saburou gave him the book as a kid but now he's all grown up. Growth spurt?

Oichi/Ichihime still has a brocon but this is the cute kind! Shouldn't she be with the Azai already at this point? I hope Saburou doesn't send her away, she's fun :(

Real Nobunaga's giving off Mitsuhide vibes >__>

I wish I knew how old Saburo is at the moment. Really confusing to see Takechiyo grow up but perhaps we can tell that time has passed with Saburo's neater hair? Haha.

Love the introduction of his sister who seems to be just as quirky as Saburo is. Hope to see more of her and less of that idiotic antagonist. He burned the book. I'm really worried on what Saburo will rely on now, since it's a good step-by-step idea of Nobunaga's achievements.

My jaw was dropped at the end of the episode...

He's going to rewrite history! Wow, I can't believe the textbook got burned. I figured that the guy would steal it and plot against Saburo, but wow! Not that I thought he could read it though, but Saburo just lost a really important item...

And the real Oda is coming to meet Saburo... and he polluted Tokugawa Ieyasu's mind. Who in their right mind gives that to a little kid, geez. But looks like time has really moved if Ieyasu's grown up...?? Saburo don't look it. D:<

And damn, they glossed over the details again. I bet they're DEFINITELY skimming the manga quite a bit. Even in the first two episodes they cut out a lot of content. Why!! They should've went with a 2 cour for this series, what a shame.

Cool episode this week. I am getting into it a lot more now. Heaps of stuff seems to be building up and I can't wait to see what is gonna happen next and how it will mess up the actual history (if it does). By the way, did anyone else notice the banner change of the opposing army in the ending? It went from Imagawa to a slightly different Oda banner. Could mean a rebellion is coming? I know one of Nobunaga's brothers rebelled in actual history but that was before a lot of the events that have passed already in the show. Anyway I guess we'll find out soon.

It's just as well that the book is gone because Saburo has already changed history enough to make it irrelevant. Also, if he read further he would see what happened to Nobunaga in his world. (And that's part of the symbolism of the fire...)

Damn, now he's in a really shitty situation. The time paradoxes are limitless...

Anyway, he showed a demonstration of power. When you're overpowered, the most logical thing to do is to drop your knee. Risking the life of your men in an hopeless war is cowardice.

His ''sister'' is quite... something x)
Is she a brocon or what?!

Wow that's Tokugawa Ieyasu from that world, eh. He has a porno mag as his family treasure LOL! But Jesus, since when there is a time skip? The hell?

R.I.P. Book.
He should have studied them much earlier, meh. The dude barely had any development since day 1. On the other hand, Saru, so that's really him? Is it? Tell me it is! He's great. The show needs more focus on him and the more realistic loser group, than the luck is greater than wits genius Oda Nobunaga a.k.a. Saburou. Oh by the way, he actually said he's thinking of a strategy in this episode, so he DOES think, sure doesn't look like he did though. They could have done better with Saburou's character, until now his characterization is pretty weak if you compare it to his role.

What's Tokugawa Ieyasu's role? I've watched quite a lot of historical Japan anime shows and that name is awfully familiar.

Monkey-looking dude got his book.. damn. At least he burned it.. it'll me more troublesome if he read it.

The real Nobunaga's about to move.. what's gotten into him? I hope he won't get into Saburou's way... 'cause I say he's doing a perfect job as Nobunaga.

What the fuck ahahaha. Saburou just gave a kid a porn mag, and now he has grown up. So, how many years has passed since Saburou time traveled?? The only thing that changed is his hairstyle.
Tokugawa Ieyasu really sounds familiar to me. I just don't know what the fuck he did. Japanese history is really interesting.
Oi-chan is hot *o* I want more!!
Fucker burned the book :O What will happen now?? The history will change!!
Looks like Nobunaga will do something!!

Gosh I hate that little monkey man. Causing nothing but trouble. I hope he dies at some point.

Otherwise I'm still really enjoying this series. Saburo sure is a genius sometimes, but mostly he goes with pure luck too. Got some good laughs from this episode thanks to him.
