• BASILISK ANIME BEST SERIES

I found it to be a fantastically dark action-packed anime which wasn’t afraid to kill off a character if the plot demanded it, and also a deeply romantic story of ‘what could have been’ for ninjas who prided themselves on honour for their clan above all else. Bleach to say the least, that show has not even killed off one character yet.īasilisk may not be to the liking of all, but I loved it. Overall it was a pretty good show, I did not care if I did not get attached to any of the characters, Im happy enought that the anime was able to atleast make us get attached to the main character.ĭont compare Basilisk with Bleach, cause the atmosphere for bot shows are extremely differet, Basilisk is extremely dark, and the characters in the show suffer alot, especially Oboro, cause she never did fight or kill anyone(except tenzen I guess), also that she never wanted any of this war happening, she got raped, by a pedophile, in the end she could not get who she wanted that is it. At the same time I kind of liked the ending, mainly because of how fitting the song was with the credits roling, and the scnerio. In the end she killed her self, and that was when I was sure that Genno would do the same, as he saw her die.What reason does he have to live anymore since all his friends are dead, and his lover is dead. As the guy said before the ending is quite predictable, I mean right after haanchi gave oboro the sword, I knew that she would have to kill her self, cause she would not dare go against Genno cause she loves him, and was really hoping to get married. I saw the last episode around 2 am yesterday. I was hoping for “the two ninja schools decided to team up and overthrow the shogunnate.” Unforunately, this overly melodramatic ending was the ending that I expected. Gennosuke then takes revenge on everyone before following Oboro in suicide. Unfortunately, Gennosuke cannot bring himself to kill Oboro, and Oboro cannot kill Gennosuke, so Oboro kills herself. And after all the hawt ninja chix0rs get taken out early, I only kept watching to see what happens to Gennosuke and Oboro.Īt the end, with the other 18 participants dead, Oboro and Gennosuke face off in the last battle. While the animation is fairly good and the action crisp, the premise behind Basilisk requires that about a character die every episode, there’s not much character development nor any chance for emotional investment in a character… aside from Gennosuke and Oboro.

Overall, the series leaves as any typical Gonzo series usually does: forgettable. Each camp divides into ten participants, each with a skill weirder than the next, and they proceed to slaughter each other over 24 episodes. The catch is, of course, that the leaders of the two camps, Gennosuke and Oboro, are in love with each other and were planning on getting married soon thus ending the feud.

To recap: two warring ninja camps are ordered by the ruler of Japan to participate in a game of succession where the last ninja standing determines whom the next ruler will be.
