Considering that this show is action-packed and a candy for the visual-lovers with both effects and pretty women and men, I would have to say that it is a great thing to spend my free-from-reaping hours.

I’m watching it now, and oddly I find their shortcomings amusing, the over the top battle sequences are mostly what I come to watch for and I’m usually not dissappointed. I think because I’m so use to the more dry animes, and shonen animes that have battle scenes that are more realistic or too involve with time, that Sengoku Basara gives something new for me. :) Being a history buff, I should be grinding my teeth at the inaccurate portrayal of these characters, but I love it. I mean seeing Honda as a giant mecha in warring era Japan? I just started cracking up.

Just finished this show and I must say I love it very much! It was love at first sight to me, which I haven’t experienced for a long time, so it made me very happy while watching it.

I get what you said about the show’s shortcomings, although I didn’t really see them while watching it. Maybe because I’ve already loved the characters too much and I’m such a sucker for pretty visuals and samurai shows.

Yeah, production values is pretty much to only draw of this series. Once the action slows down (and there is no comedy to fill it in) then all of the shortcomings of the show become painfully apparent.
