Sengoku Basara Review

Are you ready guys? Put your guns on!

The Sengoku era of war is in full swing as feudal Lords fight for supremacy of Japan but the rise of Nobunaga Oda threatens to destabilise the war bringing together the former rivals of Shingen and Kenshin to try and stop Nobunaga's reign of terror. Caught in the crossfire, a younger leader on a horse with tailpipes rides through the lands with his men intent on making his own history, Date Masamune. His fondness for battle crosses paths with the fiery Sanada Yukimura creating an intense rivalry that will explode in the crazy Sengoku period but even if Oda falls others may be waiting to pounce.
Do you enjoy battles? Do you hate rules? Then just sit back with a beer and enjoy the fun as Sengoku Basara aims to please the most hardened veteran of action anime.
It's pure adrenaline fuelled action start to finish with no rules to play, just see how well each fight out does each other in spectacle. It's gloriously absurd and they know it.
Dub is pretty good and has some good hammy acting in it as well, especially Yukimura.
There's not much bad to comment really, even the quieter moments are compelling to a degree. Season 2 felt a bit weaker than the 1st but that's really it, this is a good anime.
Final Verdict: You will feel pumped up watching this; it knows how absurd it is but is proud of that fact and runs with it leaving nothing but smiles.
