A Great series hardly anyone heard of.
Hakuoki is a historically based series. The Shinsengumi are the main characters, including Saito Hajime of Rurouni Kenshin fame. I like this series a lot and wish that it had had much more support. The graphics are typical of samurai anime, but the historical info and geography is accurate. The stories are supported by historic fact and as an American who cannot read Japanese, this is as close to history and entertainment as we are going to get. Try it, despite some fluff, you will like the story and the characters.
Love this Anime
Ok, first off, I love the Japanese voice acting better than the English voice acting. I don't feel all the English voices fit all the characters. This season is very dramatic and sad and there are a lot of battles. Honestly there is nothing wrong with it containing a lot of history in the anime. You can take advantage of actually learning something while you enjoy a good anime. Everyone has their preferences but I think a lot of people that watch these kinds of anime and don't like them, way over exaggerate to try to get people to not buy them. So if you read a review that just totally rips the anime apart and tells you not to buy, makes sure to read reviews from others too and you can also go on sites like youtube and view scenes and samples from the anime. Don't just base your decisions or opinions on what one or two people who are clearly over-dramatizing the few issues with the anime and really try to do more research and form an opinion of your own that way.
One thing to...
Incredible Fights Great Heartache At The End A Very Good Samurai Series To Own
While the second set of the series will have us see the final conflict and the fat of the Shinsengumi you will also have the growing romance that's happening become more dramatic as well. The series is an incredible under looked one that deserves more credit then it got and hopefully more people will start to know about the series. One thing if you dislike ambiguous or a questionable ending then this might annoy you somewhat as while most of the series questions are answered there are a few left open ended so it's a little mixed with the ending in general. Again the animation and voice cast were great and if you like action in your anime then no worries as you'll get a decent dose here so if you already have the first set then the second is an obvious must have...
