Sengoku Otome

No idea how to edit a wiki, let alone this one, so I'll just post these here:

Redirect - Sengoku Otome: Momoiro Paradox is being simulcast on Crunchyroll as "Battle Girls: Time Paradox"

Couch Gag: Hideyoshi's cellphone during the intro from Ep5 on reflects the damage it took while she tried to take a picture in Ep4.

In Media Res/How We Got Here: Episode 1 begins with Hideyoshi in the burning village, followed by the events which brought her to the alternate Warring States era.

...I never thought something like that would happen.

umm this is the second time its happened Rio Rainbow Gate was first.

I never heard of that before this.

I wonder what they'll adapt next...

Rio was at least set in a casino and was an original character for the gambling company. What does genderbent Oda Nobunaga have to do with pachinko?

Who knows, who cares?

Anyway, the show is remarkably good. Now granted, I thought all three seasons of Koihime Musou were fantastic, so my standards are little different from most.

I'm impressed by how well Hideyoshi has taken her predicament, and how she interacts with the other girls. She was especially amusing with Akerin in episode 5.

And Tokunyan is just the most adorable little schemer ever.

So now it's a multi-layered time travel story?

^It could be, except the show is too busy stuffing itself with filler episodes in a twelve episode series. Come on, she had half the armor three episodes ago! Why does this show need to stop for random stuff like a play that only confirms what we already knew about what Akerin wants to eat?

Not really time-travel, since (apart from the dog) everyone is female in this world.

And wow, episode #7 was pure smut, with barely any lip service to the main plot.

^And Episode 8 was worse.... the sad thing is that I already know I'm going to watch the B Ds of episodes 3 and 8 when they come out. >_<

I think some of you aren't really clear on what the show's goal is.

Episodes 7 and 8 were awesome and hilarious.

Also I laughed really hard when the girl in the Nun outfit at the end of episode 8 opened her mouth.

^ I didn't say there was anything wrong with smut. Why do you think I'm still watching this despite having dropped several better shows already ?

And hey, episode #8 nudged the plot forward a bit ! Who'd have thought ?

I've been following this since the beginning, and been getting exactly what i was hoping the show would contain. It's almost as much of a Guilty Pleasure as Rio Rainbow Gate. I'm really starting to pity Mitsuhide though. Absolutely nothing is working out for the poor resident Meganekko. Born Unlucky doesn't even begin to describe it.

The first episode is the first time i've ever seen random faceless bandits that where female. Ever. They didn't have much choice but it's still surprising to actually witness.

Nobunaga's my favorite. Fiery Redhead, Hot Amazon, Les Yay, Breast Plate, Boobs Of Steel, Evil Overlord without the evil... Sigh...

I'm watching it. I'm hovering between liking it and not liking it.

Well, if anything, Koihime Musou seems like less of a Guilty Pleasure as I now feel less guilty for liking that series.

I found it funny all the comments on Crunchyroll calling the one male character a "horndog" (literally) on the play episode. That and the title of the (quite obviously yuri) play being "A Tale Of Lilies" made me ROFL.

Why does a world with no men even have a concept of yuri...

Wow. For a show that eschews combat in favor of fanservice, episode 9 was surprisingly pretty freakin' epic. And we got MOAR PLOT.

Nobunaga don't let no tropes tell her what to do.

Finally, we get to see some conquering... hopefully.

Holy crap! That was actually pretty intense!

Yeah, story finally started picking up.

PLOT !

And tons of yuri fanservice, because it's still the same show.

Yuri fanservice is better than... Everything! It is literally the best thing.

Although there's a pretty big shade of Easily Forgiven here. All the priestesses are all like "Yeah you burned down our temple. No biggie! I'm glad you've made up with your friend!" Hopefully the next episode will open with Nobunaga giving them a big sack of gold. Either that or making out with her two retainers again. Either one works.

XD What kind of crazy show is this where Nobunaga apologizing would be in-character?

Episode #11 : Wait, THAT's Date's motivation ? Seriously ?

Let's be honest, this has become a lot less fun now that the plot is finally bothering to show up. The scenes with Hanzou were quite funny, but that's barely a couple of minutes long.

Still worth it for awesome Tokunyan evil.

But hell, she wins anyway! So none of this even matters!
