Sengoku Basara Special

It's been a while since I've seen my all time favorite lovely lady Ninja but FINALLY someone has gone and subbed the DVD extra episode of Sengoku Basara that all to interesting Samurai fighting anime from last year. The Special was released in January on the last DVD of the series and it took this long for someone to finally sub it for the fans enjoyment.

That might be because the BD box set is set to be released in June along with a second season. I'm looking forward to more hot blond Ninja action and of course the just zany action of the entire rest of the cast but that's later now it's all about this special episode.

Sort of a middle episode where the big guy (Keiji) with the monkey who we only saw a little bit of went on an adventure to unite two warring factions based around the sea to fight together against the demon lord. One guy is an anchor welding sea guy with a very large ship and canon (Motochika) and the other guy is a land guy with a large circular blade like thing (Motonari). The land guy wants the big ship and the other guy wants to work together or something in any case he believes in Keiji's idea. A huge fight breaks out between the two and lots of people are hurt and or killed during the fight but Keiji is able to break up their fight so that he can reason with them in order to get them on the same side.

That's when my favorite ninja girl (Kasuga) shows up on that rocket propelled glider(remember that part?) to tell them that it's getting intense out there and that it's time to act. So the fight is postponed while the big ship takes off to lend it's hand in the fight against the demon lord.

All in all it's just another Sengoku Basara episode. Lots of fighting and dialogue and some campy bits tossed in. A separate story that happens during the main story so it's good if you've seen the rest and know what's happening. I still like it enough to think that it would make for a great rental if it ever made it state side but I haven't heard of anyone picking it up yet so it's very doubtful that it will.
