Izumo: Takeki Tsurugi no Senki

 

Izumo - Episode 12 [Fin]

Two Souls



As I watched it raw I did not understand to much, but I got the story and it was...just like expected. A cliche anime with a cliche ending.
Somehow this anime had potential, but it wasn't used. I feel like someone thought a lot about it and its characters, their past, vices but forgot to mention it. Would it be a book you'd know everything about Onamuji-sama or Rin and their lives and it would make it a lot more interesting and impressing.
So they were only stupid monotypes, or even not that.

And again a harem show where Taekru did not decide, although he clearly said he likes Kotono! *sigh* And why does Himiko like Takeshi??????

After all this was one of the most boring and cliche-leaning animes I've ever seen! A waste of time!

Izumo - Episode 11

Raging Life


If someone calls himself "evil spirit" doesn't the name already imply he's the one to be killed? Takeshi is unbelievable stupid and blind, there is no real reason why he's fighting on Himiko's side and wants to stay in her world...that will be erased in anyway if she wins...and if she is a goddess with such powers she created three worlds and all creatures living in them, warum gackeiert sie dann rumn? *gomen*

To be honest I really wanna know how this is going to end, so I'll watch the last episode raw just to finish it. Can Takeru bare he killed a living being...ah, but he was Sousanou at that time, of course that apologizes everything! Poor little Takeru Skywalker (watch out for his lightsaber), will he be catched by the dark side???

Izumo - Episode 10

Yomotsuhirasaka


*yawn* So Takeru likes Kotono...there was no sign of that the last nine episodes. Satoshi wrote this was a filler episode and he's so right...last few episodes felt like that. Only two to go and even the last one was released in June it's not subbed yet. Will I ever be able to finish this show and kick it out of my watchlist?

Izumo - Episode 9

Things I ought to protect


I'm not supposed to cry because a stupid little raven died, that almost never appeared and the tracig only tries to be higher with transforming it into a girl for the last seconds?
And I'm not supposed to be suprised because Takeshi and Takeru are one person, am I?

Hey, my caps this time look fantastic...like it really would be good! Don't be tricked ^^

Izumo - Episode 8

A Peaceful Moment



It's unbelievable, this show tries to be so dramatic and then there's an obligatoty swimsuit-episode. that's what happens if you bring together too many anime cliches!
First half I was getting so sick of Takeshi and his nonprogessing " He is better than me!" I was really glad he got a hold of himself and found his love for Himiko that will be a dissapointing experience *haha* Takeshi, you are the loser!
Mai is a shy "I'm so sorry"-girl now, she was the coolest of the bunch! And even the animation is gradually going down...

It's hopeless!

Izumo - Episode 7

Fortress of the Duel


Kotono will be killed for playing the same melody all over again sooner or later.
How stupid is it to take a bunch of girls that cannot hide, fight, run or anything into a fortress to free two other girls that decide to stay there???
Well, I came to free you, but now that you want to stay here...why not?

Baka!!!

Izumo - Episode 6

Four Heavenly Beasts


Perhaps I should send you right away to Satoshi's corner; he already wrote exactly down what I think about the show.
It's a mixture of cliches, everybody could have done the story. Zwo guys on different sides and about twenty cute girls, and I'm sure there are still more to come. Okay, I'm exxagerating a bit but there's not to much character developement, I don't even know the names of the girls, they are all the same!
Only interesting character so far for me is the white haired spy-one! I should have known she's evil from her hair colour from the beginnig. All villains have white hair. Is there are reason for that?

Izumo - Episode 5

Attack


Hm, the same like always: Nothing to complain about but not really good!

Izumo - Episode 4

Form of this World



Hm, nothing to bitch about this time, actually rather enjoyable. Not very good, but okay! I like Takeshi's attitude...it would have been stupid if he'd killed people from one second to another without even regreting or recognizing he got evil from zero to hundred in two seconds!

Izumo - Episode 3

Seperated Friends



Episode three followed a straight line - that's positive.
The rest? - I'm so annoyed by the animation quality/bad character designs.

I already knew Amaterasu and some other important people in the show wear Magatnas...I read Dream Saga last summer so I recognized them at once. Involving the Japanese Shinto legend around Amaterasu makes it rather interesting.

Perhaps, perhaps "Izumo" is still like an unpolished diamont and it will show it's beauty within the next episodes...perhaps!

Izumo - Episode 2

Foreign World


No one seems to be blogging this show and I did not write much down last time either...so:

The opening song is okay, the ending horrible! It must be sung by the seiyuus themselves...or perhaps just by people they picked randomly at the street; I don't know and...exactly I don't wanna know! All in all the soundtrack is interesting, to be honest so terrible and unfitting...I like it!

Animation in the first episode was good and this time I thought it was...but watching all shows on the TV screen is tricky. When I did the screenshots I recognized actually how deformed the characters look most of the time and the backgrounds were disappointing...too neon green.

The story is a mixture of El Hazard (the bugs), Magic Knight Rayearth (called by the pretty hime), Fushigi Yuugi (two heros who are destined to fight on two sides against each other), Lord of the Rings (there were chinese looking Ringwraiths, hontou) and Star Wars (those nazgul had Light Sabers in the end).
The only idea new to me what I like a lot is the reincarnation of dead souls in the other world.

This show is nothing that would hook me if I knew I had to watch 13 wpisodes in a row, but still I'm interested and as it's only one episode a week, i will keep watching...I'm just in the mood to blogg each and every single (almost) show of this season.

The calling Voice of a Dream



Nothing special to say about it so far.
Love and hate are so close...
