「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 – Episode 1
It's somewhat hard to judge the show right now, the author's previous works suggest that the binary morality of this premiere is likely a facade.

We're so very much at the early stages of Sengoku Youko that it's hard to believe how much has already happened.

Where Mizukami is concerned I always fear the worst with anime, as if a curse hangs over his work.

For those who have the patience to follow Mizukami Satoshi at his own pace the rewards will be ample indeed.
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 – 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.
