Sengoku Youko – 11
「断怪衆最強の男」 (Dankaishū Saikyou no Otoko") "The Strongest of the Dangaisyuu" Douren really is quite the admirable fellow in so many ways.
Sengoku Youko – 10
I have to stop and remind myself sometimes just what a historic occasion this adaptation is.
Sengoku Youko – 03
「永禄七年」 (Eiroku Nana-nen) "Year Seven of the Eiroku Period"" Anime is stupid.
Sengoku Youko – 12
Never would the phrase "just when it's getting good" be more apt than if Sengoku Youko were ending after the prologue.
Sengoku Youko – 06
We're so very much at the early stages of Sengoku Youko that it's hard to believe how much has already happened.
Sengoku Youko – 09
Sengoku, for me, has an air of grandness and sweep with no wasted space that elevates it about its predecessor, great as that is.
Sengoku Youko – 07
「火岩と芍薬」 (Kagan to Shakuyaku) "Kagan & Shakuyaku" Life and death is very much the theme of this episode, and Mizukami explores it in many and myriad ways.
Sengoku Youko – 01
「我ら乱世を憂う者」 (Warera ranse o ureu mono) "Those Who Worry For This Troubled Time" What a Long, Strange Trip It's Been
Sengoku Youko – 04
There's no copyright on bad taste - other people's about a series I like, or mine as perceived by those who disagree with it.
Sengoku Youko – 08
Mizukami gets a tremendous amount of content into a series - plot, philosophical debate, character arcs - without seeming rushed or too busy.
Sengoku Youko – 11
Where Mizukami is concerned I always fear the worst with anime, as if a curse hangs over his work.
Sengoku Youko – 08
「魔剣士」 (Mahou Kenshi) "Mystic Swordsman" One thing is clear from Shinsuke’s reaction to all this – for him “strong” and “free” are interchangeable concepts.
Sengoku Youko – 06
「 ふこう」 (Fukou) Hiding is not the answer, because your burdens always find you.
Sengoku Youko – 05
「氷岩)」 (Higan) "Higan" Best character has entered the chat.
Sengoku Youko – 04
「迅火と人間」 (Jinka to Ningen) "Jinka and Humans" I’m not immune to the zeitgeist of a series, as much as I try to be.
Sengoku Youko – 13
Never would the phrase "just when it's getting good" be more apt than if Sengoku Youko were ending after the prologue.

The lessons of this denouement are pretty clear. The pursuit of power for its own sake doesn't lead to anything remotely good.

Sengoku Youko – Episode 13 Review (End)
「神獣」 (Kamijū) "Godbeast" The lessons of this denouement are pretty clear. The pursuit of power for its own sake doesn't lead to anything remotely good.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 03
The hard truth is, being Senya is suffering.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 21
With Sengoku Youko, 1000 is not just a number.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 17
Shinsuke is the most unassuming of heroes, but he never stops being one.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 07
And so another arc, another phase of the story begins.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 15
Senya has one of the greatest arcs in manga, but Shinsuke isn't far behind him.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 11
Shinsuke is this story's quiet man, but that doesn't lessen his importance one iota.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 20
One of the things I really appreciate about Mizukami Satoshi's works is how elegantly things fit together in the end.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 08
Senya seems well and truly alone even when he's with his friends and allies.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 09
Senya's lot in life is a cruel one - every fated fight always seems to find him.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 18
Senya is young and has led an unsettled life, but his experiences have cultivated a strong sense of right and wrong.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 10
In a sense, Mizukami can write plot-driven stories that act like character-driven stories (and that's a unicorn-caliber talent).
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 05
Do great arcs mean great characters? Not always I suppose, though Senya certainly is.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 14
Ultimately, Sengoku Youko is a chronicle of virtues - kindness, loyalty, bravery, humor - and those who possess them.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 02
You'll certainly hear echoes of Thorfinn's eventual epiphany in Vinland Saga in Senya's childlike reasoning.
Sengoku Youko: Senma Konton-hen – 16
To detour such as this in the middle of the climactic battle, to deal with the personal side of all this for two secondary characters, is classic Mizukami.
