Personal: This anime even though are low in episodes, actually each one duration is 1 hour. i can recomend this anime completely. is very serious and stories are VERY GOOD. there is not episode or character whose story gets boring. each one has its own potential. this anime can also can be fun and interesting. i personally liked it and even repeat the anime at least each in a month. the songs are very good. not only both openings but also each episode has its ending. even though the animation doesnt look like others, dont let it think is bad. actually i can say those animations and draws are very full for this type of anime. not only the backgrounds but also the characters. this anime is one i can say at least every person should see it 1 time! 10/10 by my own like in rate XD for others i wont know hahaha






Characters:

Yasuri Shichika: Shichika is the current head of the Kyotouryuu style. He was trained rigorously by his father, the previous head of the style. He is deeply dedicated to his training, and is strong enough to win against challengers without even using Kyotouryuu. Through the years, he has even developed new moves for the Kyotouryuu style.

Togame:  is the shogunate's self-titled "strategian." She is physically weak but mentally superior, though she is not immune to lapses in judgment and bouts of clumsiness.
She says "gyafun" when she falls, and has a habit of saying "cheerio!" while hitting Shichika, though it turns out "cheerio!" is erroneous and is supposed to be "chest!" This greatly troubles her, though in the end, she decides to stick with "cheerio!
( Very Funny Main character if anyone ask me )



Hitei: A mysterious and seemingly cruel girl who appears to know more than she lets on, Hiteihime is Togame's archrival and constantly schemes to interfere with Togame's mission.
She have a lot of secrets who actually changes story completely so i wont post  anything of her because of spoil. yet i can say i really liked her!.
