PUT YOUR GUNS ON

Discussion on this topics and more after the jump.When was the last time you could put your arms up in the air screaming for manly men fighting one another in an animated cartoon about burning auras and screaming?! WELL GUESS WHAT! You could probably say Gurren Lagann or you can watch Sengoku Basara and bask in the glow that is amazingness.

Let’s get started with the obvious. It opens up screaming PUT YOUR GUNS ON. ARE YOU READY GUYS?!?! JESUS

WHAT MORE CAN YOU ASK FOR?

As you can see in the gallery using some crappy WP Plugin for Lightbox that I’ll end up replacing this is an anime about BURNING SPIRIT AND PASSION. Glorious burningness.

If you haven’t played the game the anime is pretty much the same. If you liked one you’ll like them all.

Anyway it’s about Date Masamune and Sanada Yukimara having too much burning passion and a massive need to fight one another in the Sengoku period or basically when Japan was a ton of small countries ran by warlords and general and Oda came in and united Japan and all of that stuff.

The story is stupid which is how it should be. If you watch the first episode and pay attention you’ll pick up a lot of what will happen in the future of the series so it’s important to look at what all of the generals are doing and how their attitudes out.

Anyway for a first episode it was absolutely amazing. There isn’t much more to say other than.

PUT YOUR GUNS ON
More on Sengoku Basara soon.

From quick skimming it’s mostly just some background story and Orange-kun with a Geass. I’m going to put out a guess but I think Orange has some kind of super Geass ability now or something that can undo C.C.’s/emperor’s geass and freeze time. The preview showed more school, action, possible Orange doing something, and well shirley.

At the end Orange uses his Geass on Shirley, I wish I knew Japanese to just know what the hell he did if it is even explained.

Lots of silly running about, the maid cross-dressing, and lots of Ashford Academy though. Bleh.

Eclipse Low-Def

GG Speed Subs

GG .ass File if you have the RAW Already (Just name your RAW and your .ass file the same with the extension like GeassS2E1.avi and GeassS2E1.ass

Menclave, famous for their near perfect Gundam 00 subs, has thrown in their name into the subbing group hat. However, with quality comes time and it’ll be awhile I imagine before we see their episode one.

GG: Quality speed subbers. They were there in Season One and did a very good job of subbing at really fast speeds. No complaints.

Eclipse: Quality subbers. Rarely will hear complaints about them. Solid subs.

Menclave: High quality subbers however very slow. Good for archiving until you can get the DVDs.

Shinsen-Subs: Possibility of them hoping on, they’re known for their “ok” subs. Lots of “sub elitist” generally dislike Shinsen for some reason or another, but they’re pretty good overall for watchablity.

Okay read more after the jump.

Welcome back. Last time to run away from the spoilers!

The episode starts with C.C. alive and the resistance still working and then switches over to Lelouch in school. Viletta(sp) is the gym teacher. Lelouch runs around for a bit. Then we see the new op. ORANGE-KUN RETURNS IN THE OPENING. ALLLLL HAILLLLL ORANNNGGEEEEE.

Lolo is there too, bleh. Moving on we’ve got the start of episode one of Code Geass season two still with us. They’re showing executions of elevens for some reason… Diethard and the scientist lady are wanted (like the previews shown) while everyone else but C.C. is “captured” and they assume Zero is dead. Lelouch has lost his memory.

Lelouch goes gambling and the black knights assault the place they’re gambling. TONS of fighting, lolo (or rolo) drops Lulu to his death. He lives, reaches the bottom where C.C. is at, C.C. talks for a bit, then the Britannia forces show up, they kill C.C., lulu flips out, they burn the bodies, C.C. and Lulu touch ala ep 1 right before he dies. THEN he gets his memory and geass back and then WE GET LELOUCH COMMANDS YOU TO DIE. They shoot each other with the main villain shooting himself in the head.

In the end, he takes back over the order of the black knights with his memory in tact. Start season 2 of Code Geass!
