This is some new up and coming TV series which will be 13 episodes long. It seems to be the sequel of the 4-part OVA with the same name which came out 2003. I haven't seen either of them but seeing as Rumiko Takahashi (Ranma, Inuyasha, Mermaid's Forest) is involved it might be good.
Well the first ep just came out, I'm downloading it now... anyone else seen it?
haven't seen the OVA, but from what I've heard it was pure crap, hopefully this TV series is better
Rumiko was involved?
my metaphorical world crumbles to piceses.
the OVA was crap, serious crap, really bad.
think of something among the lines of DBGT, just worse.
Trust me on that, you don't wish to see it for yourself.
now, that being said, Obviously, I'm gonna watch this one to completion, i hope that satan's daughter will come and eat everyone in the first episode, but somehow, i don't see it coming

Currently Watching: probably a show directed at 9 years old girls, lets be honest.
You know the important distinction between Batman and me? Batman is fictional. In real life, there isn't always an alternative.
This show rules!
Don't expect a deep plot or anything particularly new in terms of characters though.
But if all you want is some sexy fanservice/slapstick comedy in the usual Rumiko vein, you'll love this.
Good animation too and a neat soundtrack.
By the way, if you've seen Ranma 1/2, you gotta admit that it gave Ranma vibes when the cast were sitting in the dojo with an opened door behind them... that's like the most reoccuring Ranma setting.
Saw the first episode last night. Was kinda funny i think i'll stick to this show.
This shows is awsome!
Fuck yes!
There was so much awesome fanservice in ep2 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Very funny show too.
I loved when that giant octopus rejected Kondou, Okita & Hijikata as "not pretty women" lol
Next week they'll go to the hotsprings! Can't wait! *drools*
lol geez u are a perv *joking* [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
Nekomaru is the coolest char of this show easily. Why? 1. Because he is a cat. 2. Because he is a fat cat. 3. Because he is a fat cat that eats alot. besides he is funny to.
Kondou is the best because she keeps molesting Okita. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
I got the OVA, which should be pretty hard to get, if any of you need it... though you'll have to wait till September when i return to college
Ya on the first episode she touched okita breasts [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]!Originally posted by: Terracosmo

YES!
She does even more in episode 2 but we don't get to actually see it.
Okita: "No, not there!"
ya that she hit herself with the potion lol [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
YES! downloading right now [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]. Can't wait
well, i've got around to watch the three first episodes.. it's not as bad as the ova, but still the same annoying thing.
at least there wasn't any flamy magic swords or amazing transforming cars that shoot homing missles...
then again, they dumped the 30 second scenes that made the OVA worth half a bit...
I don't half a favorite charecter yet, I can hardly tell the diffrence between them (I can, I just don't care enough to make special notes of anyone)...
are you sure Rumiko was involved in this? the artwork does have some similarities with Inuyasha, but not to a degree that I would have noticed it had i not been looking for it...
and besides, any rumiko anime was much more fun than this one, it's like they took half of the possible cliches and just stuck them in, regardless of whatever.

"Saiyoko-chan, your breasts are lovely!"
Man this series is so random and hilarious. I really like it for some reason.
I hope the pervert frog sticks around, he's awesome. Licking stuff and all. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
As far as I can tell, Takahashi's involvement was just in character design (all she's listed as doing at animenfo.com) - or, rather, "original character design". I haven't seen the OVA but judging from the promo pics I can find for it, the OVA characters are much more in her style, and the TV characters rather just based off of Rumiko's design. Compare the cast as shown on the show's page to the cast as shown on the OVA's page, and you'll notice that once you take the smooth gradient out of the characters' hair they look much more like her standard style.
