    Nabari no Ou: King of Nabari

    First episode of Nabari no Ou by Rumi:
    http://tracker.anirena.com/download.php?id=5759

    Based on a shounen manga by Kamatani Yuuki, serialised in GFantasy.

    Rokujou Miharu was a seemly reluctant junior high student living in his own world. However, within him, lurked the ultimate power of Nabari, "Omnipotent". To possess such supreme weapon, the Wolf Pack of Iga swore to bring Miharu back to Iga village. On the other hand, Miharu’s English teacher, Kumohira sensei, and classmate, Kouichi, were the Banten ninjas whose mission was to protect Miharu. A war waged over the ownership of "Omnipotent" thus started. To survive, Miharu must enter the hidden world Nabari, to become the king.

    I've read about 4 chapters of the manga, and I think this could develop into a fun series with some nice ninja action. There seems like a good joint is thinking of doing this series, Conclave and AonE.

    I'll wait till the next episode until I decide whether I dislike the main character or not. His actively passive attitude is kind of annoying yet at the same time it produced some cool effects. Still, I'd hope he would change because it's annoying to watch a series where the main character can't do anything consciously. Maybe the chick who apparenly appears in the second episode will get the dude to join the club and start training. Although with some of the yaoi vibe scenes I wonder if a girl even is what Miharu needs...

    I think the shounen-ai things are just him taking on the persona to make the others around him uncomfortable (at least I hope that's the case). But yeah, I don't like the main character how he's currently, but surely he shouln't stay that way throughout the series... it just means that he should have plenty of room to grow and develop. And with him getting into more trouble and learning the ninja ways, he should change.

    At the least, the action scenes are quite entertaining... so that'll probably keep me watching.

    Edit: There was a v2 of the release, already updated the links:
    http://tracker.anirena.com/download.php?id=5759

    Well, here's episode 2 by Rumi:
    http://tracker.anirena.com/download.php?id=5813

    Let's see if this improves somewhat.

    Edit: First episode by Animanda:

    The second ep by Rumi didn't look too good so I deem it necessary to switch to that collaboration effort at least for archiving purposes (as if I needed any special reason to switch to AonE-Conclave...).

    Our very own AonE (with their Conclave collaborators) has toiled arduously to bring us the next ep:

    Episode 3 - AonE-Conclave



    - - - - - - - -





    Edit: I wish Miharu would stay either completely indifferent or take things seriously like normal people. Now he's mostly indifferent, even when people die around him, but then he suddenly cracks and... does nothing but scream useless words. What the heck is that? It would be indefinitely cooler if he remained cool and indifferent but then suddenly crack and... kill everybody!

    Well, I finally watched episode 3, and I don't know about you but I thought it was a real kick ass episode. Very action packed and the fights were well done in my opinion. Can't expect much from Miharu at the moment, it's too soon in the series for him to become cool motherfucker.

    I don't know about you, but he'll never really become badass for me if the voice never changes. I have to say it kinda irks me how feminine it is, especially since it's the same female seiyuu that did Alphonse Elric's voice from FMA.

    The voice doesn't bother me at all just because he rarely talks in the series, but point taken on never becoming a badass.

    Still, this episode surprised me... I didn't think this series would start killing people, much less the way some died in the last episode. I really enjoyed it.

    If we thought the main character was carefree, take a look at the transforming guy. It's not like those five came a broke a table, they probably killed about a dozen ninjas, and all he has to say is "Oh, you messed up my yard."

    I'll be sticking with this one, it looks pretty good. I'm starting to find those yaoi moments amusing now. Funny watching him turn others gay for a moment or two.

    This one could definitely turn into a good show, if they make progress on the character side. Can't wait for the next ep atm.

    I thought it was a boring episode myself, at least the early portion of it. But I really liked the final scenes when they pretty much made the war a free-for-all. It'll be cool to see all the different villages fighting each other.

    Episode 4 by [AonE - Conclave]

    [AonE - Conclave] Nabari no Ou - 04 [XviD][704x396][A1959454].avi
    [AonE - Conclave] Nabari no Ou - 04 [x264][1280x720][23BB116D].mp4

    ---------------------------------------------------
    I thought it was a good setup episode. Showed that in the World of Narabi, means is not an issue. Rokujou's team is bound to be less reckless though, at least at first. It'll be interesting watching the two clans race each other and see which village sides with which.

    I just lolled at the Vampire Knight commercial at the end.

    The return of Uchiha Itachi. Alright episode, I really liked the Fuuma-dono transformation fight.

    I thought transformation techniques weren't combat orientated.



    That is, until I saw this. Funnily enough, large as that dragon may have seemed, the walls and ceiling were intact. It looks to me like the Shinra Banshou's still inside of Miharu, and he can't use it's powers without going out of control.

    Though Fuuma-dono can transform perfectly, he couldn't imitate Miharu's eyes. Not those eyes.

    Miharu needs to get out of control more. With all the never ending talk about Shinra Banshou we actually see far too little of it. Of course the getting out of control aspect is troublesome here with a main character like that: He probably wouldn't get out of control even if some 200kg ex-convict started to use his ass for his own purposes... Bloody robot guy.
