This new anime tells the story of the dawning of the shinsengumi. Is there anyone else who's excited to see them make a third season?

I hope we learn a little bit about the beginnings of the Water of Life [or Ochimizu if you prefer] too. Alslo, Ibuki seems like a cool main character. Chizuru is kind of an outsider, so I'm looking forwards to seeing the Shinsengumi from a new recruit's POV!

Hakuouki Reimeiroku begins. 8th month Rōshigumi renamed "Shinsengumi". 9th month Shinsengumi unified. Hakuouki Reimeiroku ends. 12th month Chizuru arrived Kyoto. Hakuouki begins. Shinsengumi was formed of 2 factions: Serizawa and his men from Mito, and Kondou and his men from Shieikan. Although there are more assistants on Kondou's side, Serizawa was the Lead Commander (筆頭局長) and was the highest authority in Shinsengumi. Main Characters: Ibuki Ryunosuke* (Protagonist, original character in the game]Seiyuu: Tomokazu Seki Although he's obstinate and badmouthing, he also has a gentle side. The game follows this character and the anime started with him. He was about to starve to death, that when he was saved by Serizawa Kamo but Ryu was forced to become his servant. in payment for his life The Seiyuu Hiroyuki Yoshino as Heisuke Tōdō Jouji Nakata as Kamo Serizawa Koji Yusa as Sanosuke Harada Kousuke Toriumi as Hajime Saitō Shinichiro Miki as Toshizō Hijikata Showtaro Morikubo as Sōji Okita Tomohiro Tsuboi as Shinpachi Nagakura Toru Ohkawa as Isami Kondō Nobuo Tobita as Keisuke Sannan Episode1 I was hoping for a more how everyone got together and not just Ibuki's character so I am a little disappointed, I know they did show some of those in the other series but it would be nice if they tie it up together

How interesting that the story is really telling the history of the actual Shinsengumi main characters, in a way. HIjikata Toshizo was tall according to record about 5'6 , that he was indeed a son of a wealthy farmer but his father died when he was born and then his mother. His sibbling actually brought him up . He was the youngest.He did join that dojo but before that he self taught himself kenjutsu and developed his own style. They are indeed making Serizawa evil for making him discriminate a samurai born from a samurai clan and a so called samurai born from a farmer.

I didn't know how tall he was...that's three inches taller than I am. But considering it was the 1800's that's pretty tall. Anyway, as far as the plot is concerned, it's pretty intense between Kondou's group and Serizama's group and their different ideologies and tactics. It's cool to see how and why Yamazaki and Shimada were made spies and how Hijikata begins to descent or ascent (depending on how you take it) into his role as the demon or oni that's well known in the First and Second season of the show. I'm having fun pointing out differences and similarities between the seasons, but one huge questions remains about the main character in the current season: Why won't he fight? This hasn't been explained yet, though considering all of the struggles within the ranks, it seems to have been pushed to the side, along with Ryuunosuke frankly, he could be taken out of the show and you wouldn't notice all that much. I just wonder what his purpose it, why he doesn't want to fight or learn how to fight even though things are so violent and at the very least, one needs to be able to defend themselves from ronin, and other dangers.

You have to go to the not so kosher sites like animecrazy.net or get the dvd. Good luck

If this leads up to where Chizuru joins them then the other two seasons are the middle and end? Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide The water of life comes from Chizurus blood. She is an Oni and her adoptive father is a Dr. scientist.

Sunrose 12345 THis is the prequel to ALL Hakuouki , so you can really say , this is how it all started even though Ibuki was nowhere in the other series , if I am not mistaken. Here we meet Chizuru's otosan who is doing the experiments. So Yes , this is how the shinsengumi began in the world of Hakuouki with some facts and fiction.THis particular episode happened on the 8th month. Chizuru comes in on the 12th month. And for those who knows the game and how it goes , we are going to see some bloodbath in the next episode , which ends the Roshigumi faction and Ibuki will be free and since we know he aint warrior material , he will go bye bye which explains why we dont see him in the other Hakuouki series.Not unless he gets killed. I am just guessing about Ibuki .
