This one... is kind of hard to pin down. It's like they took a large pot and threw in Ikkitousen, DBZ, Ninja Nonsense, Tenchi Muyo and mixed them all together. It's fanservicey, it's funny, it's over the top fighting, ect. Well, it's fanservicey, but not to the point of being disgustingly so (Well, kind of. It does have it's moments). And it doesn't use fanservice = comedy thing either. As for the fighting, it strange, it's over the top, but kind of pathetic at the same time. Like one move per turn at the slowest speed kind pf pathetic. And I believe this is the first time I've seen a legit reason why the MC is weaker than the girls around him.
Anyways, the art is what you would expect from a harem type of series. Big sparkly eyes, skimpy clothes, backgrounds are just sort of there, even if it's drawn beyond the “suburb of a town” kind of thing anime seems to fall back on a lot. The colors are neon-ish, but I feel it's actually held back due to it being drawn to replicate oldish traditional Japanese samurai manga (i.e. ink splatters and heavy use of ink in certain places, giant strokes for Kanji, ect). The music, as usual, is just kind of there, again, even though it's themed around samurai genre kind of stuff. The characters are slightly one note, but I feel they have more in stock for us with them later on as they seem to hint at a few stuff that has been happening in the past. What it does seem to handle is molding the genres of over-the-top samurai stuff and harem stuff a bit better than one may think.
The story goes as such (though not much). The Head of the clan/MC (I'm guessing he's the head anyways) returns from his journey and finds out that his precious dojo is turned into a maid cafe. The girls convince him that they need the money in order to keep things running around the place. Meanwhile, a group of samurai brought back from the dead come and challenge the dojo, asking for Yagu Jubei. Surprise to say, it's the little sister of the MC, and of course the group of dark samurai don't believe them. Of course, this is a running theme as things heat up between the two groups of samurai. All the girls are named after famous Japanese warriors. The bad guys win, and seal up MC's super samurai powers, giving them only a month fight back with the actual Yagu Jubei before MC loses his powers forever
And that's it. People that like multiple elements in their kinky girl anime would like this, even though the fighting isn't all that great and the jokes, though slightly above average, will try it's best to keep your interest.
Might keep up with this one, but it'll definitely be in back of the line of the other anime I'm watching.
