The finale doesn't really feel like one to be honest, I would have prefer Ryuubi to be able to master her ability sooner or later but it looks like that won't happen. From the way things are looking at the end, it would seem that Bachou is gonna get more screentime in the next season if there is one :D

I'm in the same boat as you, I've been waiting for new stuff since epi. 9. I could watch the raws but then my gf would bitch about how she doesn't understand whats going on lol.

I must say, Bachou failed to impress me!...
The big athletic girl and the joker girl in the silly hat are a lot more appealing; atleast they have personality quirks and are quite different.
Bachou took a long time to rank with the others, which is fair enough, as they are freak strong, yet the series flew by with Bachou introduced as a character seeking revenge (which was unjust) which soon fell through, struggeling to keep up, mouthing off, getting somewhat decent towars the end, yet only going up against a personalityless extra with no fighting abilities.

Kokin, yet again, was there yet done nothing and Gentoku, yet again, had no development.
Despite being a fighting series, we still haven't lost a main character.

Anti-climatic; There was actually no ending.
I prefered the previous seriese to this one, sorry people.:(

An odd ending for me. Felt like they just remembered Bachou had a revenge motivation and just worked to do something with it at the very end of the series. Still liked her character overall. Think it lost some steam in the middle.

Anyways can't see this as being the end for the series overall. Another season is bound to come our way eventually.

I wouldn't know this was the last episode if not for the ep no. and lack of preview. But I mainly watch Ikki Tousen because of Sonsaku Hakufu so not a bad season in that respect. I couldn't have watched this series for so long without her and Kanu. Btw whats with the reviews in the description page, it feels they were expecting something of similar calibre to Code Geass.

What fan service???

Do you mean the occasional nipple when their clothes got torn?

If anything, this season failed because they tried to deliver a VERY POOR plot with very little entertainment.

I actually would've enjoyed MORE fan service and LESS half-assed story line episodes.

You must be freacking kidding me. Did you burnt so many hentai in your mind that you don't even notice fanservice anymore because they aren't fucking on screen?

If anything is wrong with this sentence it is the word ''occasional''.

Well I agree wholeheartly with you on this one.

More fanservice... more fanservice... there's fucking nipple every minute, if not you either get a panty shot, the character is fully naked or you get fanservice in an angle that does not show nipple.

The story sucked and they drown this season in fanservice.

OH C'MON!!!

If I'm going to watch "GOOD" anime, I'll watch Death Note, Monster, and TTGL.

If I'm going to watch "BAD" anime, but at least be entertained with fanservice I'll watch Ladies versus Butlers!, Rosario+Vampire, Kiss X Sis, Seikon no Qwaser, etc.

All these anime prevailed in delivering "entertaining" Fanservice, IkkiTousen 4 DID NOT.

I don't want to sound bad saying this BUT:

If you watched IkkiTousen (ANY SEASON), thinking that it would be an in-dept anime with a good story or even a half decent plot, you were horribly WRONG!

Therefore, if I'm going to watch this nonsense, the least they can do is entertain me with "Quality" fanservice, instead of nonsensical nipples and panty shots, while they're fighting a very boring battle with very little creativity.

I started watching Ikkitousen because I like Hakufu. This 4th season needed more Hakufu, so it gets only 5/10 from me.
Also, I agree with those who say that the fanservice could have been better. It's plenty, yes, but I didn't like most of it.

I still think this was one of the better seasons, it was sure a hell lot better than Great Guardians! At least it tried to have some story and tie all the random events from previous seasons together, instead of 12 fillers with random drama.

With that said I still hope one day I will get a proper tournament tournament in my Ikkitousen.

I may have either low expectations or my tastes are different than every one else, but I actually liked Ikkitousen 4. It kept humor that was great in it. It was still action based. Only thing I kind of wish they do is that if this was the final season that they end it with atleast saying what happened to every one, atleast give some closure.

As I said before, I may have either lower expectations or different tastes, but it still was fun to watch.

Well i never expected much from Ikkitousen although it could have done it a little better.

It was especially horrible at the fighting department and it could do better job at fanservice too. The artwork needed some fixing in term of showing some more realistic looking breast instead of blown balloons.Am not talking about size but about shape. For an anime with so much breast showing they should have done at least that.

In the end i can't say i suffered watching it though. Just something to watch to kill time with sexy girls when you want your brain shut.

BTW was the ED song lyrics different in this episode? Something seemed off.

The 1st season was great. After the 1st, this series has fell apart in animation quality and the school rivalry feel it used to have. The story gets more absurd as it goes and there's still characters that haven't been developed or grown what so ever after 4 seasons.

I thought it was decent, nothing groundbreaking, but honestly seasons 3 and 4 were leaps and bounds better than the abortions that were seasons 1 and 2. I gave seasons 1 and 2 a 3 or 4/10 and I gave season 3 a 6/10 and that is what I am giving season 4 as well.

everytime this show tries to make some sort of serious plot it just falls flat on its face. The enjoyment comes from the fighting,fan serivices and bits of comedy. I start to roll my eyes when the "plot" rears its ugly head. Thought the season was fine,but nothing special.

Had some nice parts, but felt more like set-up for what's to come.

Really enjoyable season again, never expected that I would like the franchise this much.

This season... was actually good! I was kinda surprised by it, except for the last season, which was more SoL than fighting but was the only one with a plot that makes sense, I start to don't expect much of this series.

They did everything wrong until now! The characters didn't develop, the plot didn't make any sense, and they literally spit on the Rot3K history, they changed all the names so that you get confused or have a hard time figuring out who's who, and even with all of that figured out the story didn't make sense because they were "fighting against their destiny", even if they ended up in the same situation (kinda stupid plot tbh).

This season we have the reign of Nanman, and right in front of you we see the first stupid thing they could do: from the 2 most important characters in that reign they cut one (the king's wife) and they put one minor that (tbh) no one ever knew until now (the king's brother); but we had a different plot than just the recreation of some battle or some part of the romance.
In the end, that was what made this go into a better path! They had space to introduce new characters, to catch older ones, and time to develop those and put a story coherent enough to be appreciated without trying to find who was who and would end in what way because they did that to whatever...

I really liked this season. Please make more like this (but with a bit more of SoL, they can be fun and are great for side characters to have more screen time).
For the ones that like to bother others (like me) with "you should read the manga/LN", please stop. I don't read mangas, I will NOT read mangas, I will not listen to what manga readers complain in adaptation to the anime counterpart, I only watch anime except in very few and specific situations.
