Do not be surprised to see people dying in a violent and painful way. Oh, and with lots and lots of blood splattering all over the place. Example: Reverse harem setting with a plethora of bishounen. Is it violent Action, an awe-inspiring Adventure in a foreign place, the gripping life of a Detective, a slapstick Comedy, an Ecchi Harem anime, a SciFi epic, or some Fantasy travelling adventure?

Among western anime fans, the term is used when vague sexual content, such as skimpy clothing or nudity, is prominent. In Japanese, however, it is a catch-all term for all things anyhow sexual in nature, mild or otherwise.
Romance is also a difficulty encountered when creating a harem. This includes, but is not limited to, science fiction, fantasy, superhero fiction, horror, utopian and dystopian fiction, fairytale fantasy, supernatural fiction, as well as combinations thereof.
Please do not add fetish tags to anime that do not pander to the fetish in question in any meaningful way. Most porn anime play out the fetish, making tag application fairly straightforward. Cross-dressers often hide their cross-dressing identity for a long period of time and thus tend to become adept in accurately portraying the opposite sex in terms of voice, movement, behaviour, temperament, etc.

This is given as the original work credit in the OP. Mostly of academic interest, but a useful bit of info, hinting at the possible depth of story. To a certain extent it describes what you can expect from the world in the anime. Includes more specific places such as a country on Earth, as well as more general places such as a dystopia or a mirror world. To its inhabitants, our planet is their home, so, as a species, we cherish it to the point many cultures even to this day deify it.
The Earth is the main setting of most fiction, but many titles are set in other places, such as unrelated fantasy worlds, and in a considerable number of fictional titles the Earth is actually destroyed by invaders.
Asia covers an area of 44,, square kilometers. The continent, which has long been home to the majority of the human population, was the site of many of the first civilizations. Asia is notable for not only its overall large size and population, but also dense and large settlements as well as vast barely populated regions within the continent of 4.
Located in the Pacific Ocean, it lies off the eastern coast of the Asian mainland and stretches from the Sea of Okhotsk in the north to the East China Sea and China in the southwest.
This category should almost always go together with one of its sub-categories, because the past can either be a depiction of a historical event s or not, in which case it would be alternative past.
They set the backdrop against which the protagonists must face their challenges. These are only but a few of the more typical backgrounds for anime plots. Add to that a Conspiracy setting with a possible tragic outcome, the Themes span most of the imaginable subject matter relevant to anime.
Often used to unite the cast of a show for this one goal, to make them put differences aside and become a band of nakama. It is up to the civil law enforcement, i. Note: Do not confuse this with Military presence. These special forces are trained to combat specific forms of crime, e. There are several such squads: Whereas Section 9 of Ghost in the Shell is an official government organisation, there are also "benevolent" vigilante groups like the Knight Sabers Bubblegum Crisis.
Criminal syndicates also have their special forces e. The head may be simply the sharpened end of the shaft itself, or it may be made of a more durable material fastened to the shaft, such as flint, obsidian, iron, steel or bronze. The spear has been used throughout human history both as a hunting and fishing tool and as a weapon. Variant forms of the spear include the javelin, the lance, and the pike, a very long thrusting spear.
They are commonly used to describe people. The functions of the ninja included espionage, sabotage, infiltration, and assassination, as well as open combat in certain situations. The ninja, using covert methods of waging war, were contrasted with the samurai, who had strict rules about honor and combat. In ancient times it was seen as a sign of the devil, and was abhorred in many cultures. Although i enjoyed Hakuouki Reimei-roku prequel-how it all began , the next 2 seasons didnt impress me at all You should watch it, only if you re curious to see what will happen next.
Nevertheless, i really liked the "historical aura" of it, as it was repressented really well! Pros for nice comedy twist, some fairly serious references, cool and interesting characters.
Cons for dialogues, plot, poor overall quality. Just not among the best samurai series, perhaps hang on for a few eps to make up your mind. Well I say it's good! I've watched it shortly after Kenshin and I have to say that characters named Saitou Hajime are badass. If you like japanese history, samurai and sword fights it's right for you.
Looking forward to S2. Other than that the female main char is so damn lame.. To be honest i first read the Recommendation of bladedaemo and i was not sure to watch it or not. But well it turned out quite ok. Chizuru ist not that dumb she is a girl and can't fight like the rest of the Shinsengumi.
But it dosen't matter she fits well in the plot and that is important. Reviews add review. Rating: 6. What actually attracted my attention, was the lack of detail in the character clothing witch is quite the opposite to the game.
But, never mind the game, it could still have been done better, at least for some characters like the courtesan.
Character design is quite good, but the huge difference between the looks of the main cast and the secondary is striking. I wouldn't have liked to see every character looking perfect like in Saiunkoku Monogatari, but probably I would have appreciated if the rest of the characters, wouldn't look very much the same.
I do have a good visual memory, but I can remember no face. I find the huge difference quite a bad idea. The main cast look great; everyone is just perfect. The problem is that only a few of them like Hijikata and Saito fit the samurai image. Okita is flashy but still ok probably, but the rest look like kabuki actors. People living during that time would have said that I guess. The good thing is the scenery. It perfectly fits the mood.
It's not Kara no Kyoukai, but it sometimes could provide the viewer the same "perfect fit" feeling. The OP is very good till the first chorus, but it is repetitive after it and I think that is a bad thing. I find listening to the whole song rather boring. I like the ED song though. It's rather peaceful and it's good to listen to it after seeing the episode.
I remember no other song in particular so I can't say it was very good, I only remember that at one time I found the music quite bad , and I remember no time I found the music as perfectly fitting. I would have liked to hear some Edo-era themes, but the one and only time that could have been nice was the Gion festival they attended to. It left me disappointed. The real Shinsengumi history was mixed with fantasy elements, and the result is the real Shinsengumi history.
In the end, fantasy equals 0. Every smart aspect of the story is taken from history, but the reasons of some actions are changed, so they can be related to the fantasy aspect.
I am quite alright to seeing some close to reality Shinsengumi even if they are mixed with Oni and other supernatural creatures, and that is why it gets an 5 from my side. The fantasy part is not as interesting as it could have been and I will say no more about it. They are just close to reality as far it is known today. The only thing one gets to see is that the Shinsengumi members end up liking Chizuru. This anime is inspired from a dating-sim game. I was quite scared about this aspect before watching it.
There you have Heisuke probably falling for her but she does not seem to respond his feelings. She quite treats everyone the same. Her feelings about him do change over time, but for now, Hijikata is only a historical character doing the things he has to do. This is the case for the rest of the cast. Hijikata drinks that medicine probably because he has to be alive after fighting the Oni to —just as I said before- fit the history and be able to travel to Edo Okita still has tuberculosis even after drinking that only because he has to be ill just because history is like that.
Sannan drinks it and hides just because in reality he should have been dead. Rating: 5. Approval: It'll get pretty messy if I tried to explain every single one of them, so please google or refer to Wikipedia if you see an italicized word you don't recognize. The story starts with Yukimura Chizuru, daughter of a doctor in Edo Tokyo's old name , arriving Kyoto in search of her father.
She is saved by two Shinsengumi members from zombie-like demon, and gets taken into custody. Eventually she gains their trust and helps them out while looking for clues of her father. Shinsengumi is an organization that actually existed in the late- Edo-period that acted as a 'special police' that served to suppress any anti-government movement in Kyoto. The actual organization only existed for less than a decade, but their legacies have been depicted in various novels, movies, and TV doramas that they have become something of a symbol of justice in the Edo-era.
This anime's events and characters are inspired by the actual Shinsengumi, but the story is completely fictional. The title "Hakuouki" is a made-up word comprised of kanji "Light-colored Sakura " and "Ogre". It describes the fictional vampire-like white-haired light color undead Sakura demons ogres in this series. Sakura Cherry blossoms symbolizes death or short-lived beauty for the short span in which the pink flowers blossom in spring.
One thing they really succeeded in this show was use of lighting to create mood. From hazy moonlight to orange glow in the daytime to bloody red sunset, the light always seemed to shine from one direction, and matched the atmosphere they were trying to create. One fatal flaw in the animation Sure, all the main characters wore Shinsengumi uniforms with swords around their waist, but all I saw was a bunch of host and a school girl in cosplay.
It all comes down to fan service, and they all seemed out of place amid peasants and lowly Shinsengumi members who looked legitimately from the Edo-era. They even went as far as trying to have Chizuru pass for a boy. I know back in the day, it was unthinkable for a girl to be dressed like a boy, but please, you must be joking. Despite the fact that they were totally out of place, they stayed consistent by speaking modern Japanese the whole way and all the characters sounded like they should.
Music in slice-of-life scenes had a serene, calming flow that worked very nicely in the background, which intensified in plot twists or confrontations, enhancing drama in every occasion. Powerful drum beats are added in action scenes, which not only fit the era well, but also made them all that more exciting.
Theme songs were ridiculously good for this series. OP song was epic with extremely catchy tune, elegant lyric, and great vocal.
Amazing piece of contemporary Jpop - Enka hybrid that really blew me away. ED was pretty good, the somber song worked nicely for this series since many episodes ended with a tragedy. Sound and Marketing department sure have a lot of work ahead of them if they're to match or surpass the theme song quality and compatibility in season 2.
I can accept Oni villains being insanely strong because they're not human, but how are some of the Shinsengumi members able to fight almost evenly against them? What's even more puzzling is that those fighters struggle against lowly samurai when outnumbered.
The "u" in Hakuouki can substitute the accent mark, thus extending the vowel that is needed. There is no difference in pronunciation. Yukimura Chizuru has gone to Kyoto in search for her father. As she walks through town at night, she is harassed and chased by a group of ronin samurai. She hides in an alleyway but two white-haired, non-human creatures called Rasetsu attack and kill the ronin.
They spot Chizuru and engage, but a group of men from the Shinsengumi kill the Rasetsu. They take Chizuru into custody and debate what to do with her. They discover that her father is a man they have been searching for.
Chizuru joins the Shinsengumi in their search for her father, meanwhile, cooking for them and attending to them. A bond slowly grows between the captains of the Shinsengumi and Yukimura Chizuru. Throughout the series they face many Rasetsu and find that Chizuru's father has a darker purpose than she could ever have imagine. Most of the main characters of the Hakuouki series are based on real historical people from Japan's Bakumatsu period late Tokugawa shogunate in Discuss Wiki List.
