    Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Girls



    The story takes place in Japan in the early 21st century, in an alternate reality where the Tokugawa Shogunate has remained in power. In this reality, student councils are tasked with oppressing schools. Yagyuu Muneakira is a high school student who rebels against his student council with the help of girls who've had the names of famous samurai heroes passed on to them.
    Episode 1 Ryuumaru
    Episode 2 Ryuumaru


    I really liked the art direction of this series. The plot seems a bit silly at times and some of the characters annoyed me, but the art was enough to hook me.

    I was also interested into seeing the new roles of seiyuu like Kugimiya Rie and Koshimizu Ami.

    On the contrary, I dropped this show after two episodes because the art annoyed me. I'm no fan of the characters either.

    I dropped it after watching the pre-air version, because of the ink blot censoring. I'll probably pick it up again when there's a blu-ray batch available.

    Ink blot censoring didn't really bother me.

    The first blu-ray comes out late november. Knowing Ryuumaru they'll probably pick them fast.

    Blah... I also liked the art, but I thought this was going to be a more serious/dark anime. I don't mind the ecchi either, but I get sick a tired of it when the characters always mention/joke about it and such.

    This show gives me Sekirei vibes, but unlike Sekirei I think I actually like some of these characters.

    I hope we can hurry up and get a better overview of the history/backstory to this whole thing though. The first episode's exposition suggested an odd mix of old vs new technologies, as does the international phone service.

    edit: /me just read the opening post.

    I'm still confused, but I'll let it play out. And I like the ink blots.

    Ok, I'm confused. If the kiss from Muneakira is enough to change this girls into Master Samurai... then this rests special points from Jyubei.

    Yeah, I thought the same too. I was going to say something about how it's weird how Yuuki didn't get the personality change, and Muneakira didn't get chained down during the fight, but the fact was that Yuuki's got the tattoo. (it's uncertain whether the tattoo's only temporary, or if she'll retain it like Jyubei).

    The first two Blu-ray episodes are available as well. I haven't seen them, but I think they are uncensored.

    1080p
    720p

    I got the Blu-ray eps from Kira-Fansub. The file sizes are more reasonable than Bloatgirls.

    Kira-Fansub - Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Girls - 01 and Extras - 1080p | 720p
    Kira-Fansub - Hyakka Ryouran Samurai Girls - 02 - 1080p | 720p
