Ikki Tousen - The Complete Series (Super Amazing Value Edition)

- Synopsis: This anime involves jewels that are infused with the spirits of ancient warriors that acts as a symbol for fighters. The new girl in school isn't your typical gal: nothing gets her off more than a good old-fashion beat-down. Here, a fighter's abilities and skills will determine their standing in the world. Past all the violence, however, emerges a dark and evil force that will soon turn their everyday lives into nightmares. =========================================================================================================== - Comments: Plot is pretty straight-forward which makes it easier to just sit back and relax. Lots of fan-service and lots of action. The fight scenes are often no-holds-barred and as such, are painful and brutal. But, fighters these days have to be tough and/or smart in order to survive in a school of fighters. - Analysis: A relatively common but overlooked concept of how common conflict is. No matter where one looks, there's always going to be people that just will never settle for compromise. Instead, they resort to violence. But I guess that's the quickest way to convey one's feelings. Rather than dealing with politics and statutes, using force to attain one's desires does have its appeal, and complications. So, long as differences exist, there will most likely always be conflicts. - Features: English and Japanese audio, with English subtitles. Includes 13 episodes on 2 DVDs with a run-time of about 5 hours. Rated TV-MA due to the amount violence and fan-service. Uncensored and shows plenty of boobs and panty-shots. - Conclusion: An anime better suited for males due to action and cute girls. It has a simplistic plot making it great for casual audiences. Contains plenty of interesting characters, interactions, drama, brutal fight scenes, and plenty of fan-service. Overall, a nice anime for those looking for action and fan-service. =========================================================================================================== - Recommendations: Freezing, Valkyrie Drive: Mermaid, Akikan!, High School DxD, Maken-Ki, Sekirei, Ben-To, Cross Ange, So, I Can't Play H!, Aesthetica of a Rogue Hero, Claymore, Needless, Seikon no Qwaser, Dragonar Academy, Blade Dance of the Elementalers, Sky Wizards Academy, K, Tokyo ESP, Tokyo Ghoul, and Queen's Blade.

It's fun to watch! A group of teens are given some kind of jewel with the spirit of an ancient fighter. These people all became great fighters, but there is one special individual with a jewel that consist of most powerful spirit of them all. That individual's name is: Sonsaku Hakufu. Normally, she is the most non vilent person you could meet, until she is challenged. In her normal life she's pretty, dumb average girl with one exception, she has a very good figure, and is very well endowed, she has absolutely no problem with public nudity whatsoever. As like the spirit within the jewel she possesses, she destined to take over Nanyo Acedemy, and later on more! In the first episode, she meets her cousin koukin, who's family she and her mother is staying with for the time being, in a long while. Koukin is a very well respectful guy who is rather too respectful...He is easy to shock just doing embarrassin actions. Hakufu for example, usually disregards her clothing, so whether it's in the house, during a fight, she'll be one to lose her top clothing and be left half/full naked, to which he panics every time she makes an advance or takes off her clothes on her own. Worst of all to her, its normal even around him (Lol) This anime has A LOT of fan services, but if you're into Ecchi Animes with fighting and other mature rated content, buy this wonderful series! Add it to your collection! Thank you for reading my long review.

Normally I do not enjoy this sort of thing because it's X-Rated and isn't for the very young, but this had a surprisingly good story line. A group of people known as 'fighters' have these special jewels that allow them to call upon the spirits of the greatest warriors to have ever lived, and somehow become possessed by them, and somehow in the process they tear one anothers cloths off in an attempt to show not only who's the greatest warrior from which school,but to unite each school under one! Lots of panty shots, ripped off bras, nose bleeds, humor and a dull mix of stupidity made it thoroughly enjoyable. And to boot, the fight scenes were actually quite good! LOTS of blood and gore in a few of them! So if your looking for an anime that's intense and somehow allows your IQ to go on holiday, look no further!

I'm a big fan of Battle Vixens, (the manga version of Ikki Tousen), and I've seen the show online before purchasing this anime. I had to have a copy of the first season, (since this is not the complete series whatsoever), for myself. This is the S.A.V.E. Edition which is fine for me since I don't really care for box arts and extra special features. - Animation: The animation is pretty good but I have to admit this though, the animation is a hell of a lot better in manga format. It's very bright but also very sharp, and edgy. There are a lot of panty shots in this anime, do not take other reviewers comments on the fan service lightly. Female characters that are fighters have clothes that rip in battle to expose their breasts and also means much more panty shots. - Story: Basically, schools are in this war because they hold different souls of fighters from a different era and apparently Hakufu's often dumb ass is the most powerful fighter. There's a bit more to this story than just fan-service but a lot critics disagree with me. Parents be warned of this anime not only because of the absurd amount of fan-service, there is a rape scene between two of the female characters, strong language, sexual situations that are almost pornographic, heavy amounts of sexual innuendos, and large amounts of violence against women. - Dub and script: The dub is pretty decent but the script kinda sucks to me. All in all, it's a good anime to watch and buy it since it's low-priced if you're over 18 and you like shows like this. It gets a 4 out of 5 on my end since I wish it looked like the manga and the script and opening and closing songs sucks a poopy wet dog's butt.

Everything works well

I can see why crackle discontinued it, because it does have some x rated scenes but the storyline and characters are funny and Carrie Savage, who voices Hakafu the main character does an excellent job. The menus don't work correctly so when you pick a episode, it just runs into the next episode but that's not a problem, just press stop. In all, despite the skimpy attire the characters wear, its a good watch, dry humor, just have to see if its to your liking.

OK,people. The primary target audiances appears to be those with a fasination with teenagers panties,something this series has way too much of. The storyline does not work well with those not well-versed in Chinese/Japanese history nor with those that cannot grasp a concept that allows high school students to issuse "imperial orders" that must be obeyed by students under pain of death. The whole concept of high school students fighting to reinact events that happened more than a thousand years ago in another country and have no control over the outcomes isn't a Western concept. But, on the other hand, if all you want to watch is a dingbat bounce around and show her panties, well, this is your series. Admittedly,however, it is lively,funny and light-weighted enough to be enjoyable for those times you don't want to have to think. The storyline, however, should you wish to get really involved, is quite difficult to follow as it relates to the retelling of the 1000 year old Chinese history of the Three Kingdoms and how that history is now controling the actions of modern Japanese high school students. Nudity is minimal but there is some.Breasts are too frequently over sized,sometimes to a point of off-putting. Several of the females are quite attractivley done but the males are generaly average at best. Recommended for an evening of light viewing but don't expect any great enlightment. OK for most teens, 16+, but there are a few sexual scenes that are implied in such a manner that they cannot be otherwise rationalzed.

Interesting to say the least

Great to have this one after I watch in on funimation which I can not watch anymore Action Fun Fan Service

普通にＳＯＮＹリージョンフリープレーヤーＢＤＰ－Ｓ６５００で日本語音声の字幕なしで視聴できました。 とにかくチラリズムというか、寸止めのお色気祭り状態で、服の破れ方がギリギリにデリケートゾーンを隠します。 また、女子高生がルーズソックスで、今の時代、逆にコーフンしそうです。 普段２ｃｈで作画崩壊のスレをみて大爆笑していたのですが、それからするとこの作品も作画崩壊ではないかと思われます。 そのせいか、主人公の女の子がおバカキャラ過ぎてもあまり気になりません。 っていうか、女だてらに喧嘩三昧でケガをしょっちゅうしており、パンチドランカーになっているのかもしれません。 何にしても「おっぱいの揺れっていいよなー」なんて軽い気持ちで気軽に見て楽しめる作品だと思います。 安いし買っても損はないかと思います。

Really good show. Love how fast this came to me in the mail. Can't wait to start watching it.

一騎当千１期のインポート版です。 リージョンフリーデッキでないと見る事が出来ません。 三国志の英雄と同姓同名の人物が登場し、舞台は高校でのヤンキーたちの喧嘩による覇権統一を目指す戦いとなります。 男ばかりが登場するわけじゃなく同姓同名の女性も多く登場します。 三国志を題材にした作品の中では珍しい事に孫呉が主役の作品です。

I was most happy when the dvd arrived. I am a fan of japanese anime and was certainly NOT disappointed when viewing the film.thank you.
