Wow I must've been living under a rock or something, because I had no idea this became an anime. Suddenly Bakumatsu Rock began flooding my Tumblr dash and I was pretty confused as to why. Plus yknow, animated graphics further added to my confusion. XDD
For those who don't know what Bakumatsu Rock is, it's basically about Shinsengumi men during the Bakumatsu period who want to use their rock 'n' roll music to save people from the brainwashing of the Shogunate LMAO.
As for the anime, it began airing yesterday (July 2) and will air 12 episodes, ending September 17.
But more importantly, HAVE YOU GUYS SEEN THIS MAIN CAST???? AHHHHHH!!
Hijikata Toshizou → Morikawa Toshiyuki
Katsura Kogorou → Morikubo Showtaro
Okita Souji → Ono Kensho
Sakamato Ryouma → Taniyama Kishou
Takasugi Shinsaku → Suzuki Tatsuhisa
THREE SEIYUUS I'M FALLING FOR RIGHT THERE AHAHAHAHA.
It's also interesting how the seiyuus all have musical backgrounds, which you can read up on here. o3o
I have NO CLUE how this anime is gonna roll (Haha. Get my lame pun? *snicker*), but apparently it's just as bad as Free! and their fanservice. XD To which the fanservice boys and rockin' seiyuu can be seen here haha.
But regardless, it's music, and I like music stuff. And I like 3 of the main seiyuu (as well as some of the supporting character seiyuu such as Yasumoto Hiroki and Fujiwara Keiji ufufu). And goodness gracious, don't get me started on that crazy plot! So all those are factors that might push me to watch the anime. As if Kamiaso and Free! didn't give me enough fanservice already. (●´艸`)
Speaking of which, since I'm planning to watch the anime (and probably end up liking because THOSE SONGS), I might be motivated to play the game. Surprisingly it's a fairly new game to have an anime already - released in February 2014. For some reason, I thought it was an older game but hey it's pretty cool there's an anime out already. c:
(Btw that song is Reaction sung by Tattsun. A full version can be found here.)
Plus, having an anime adaptation can allow fans to know the game title, hence gathering more support. For example. Hakuouki and UtaPri were my first exposures to bishie men and otome. I tried looking at more otome animes but sadly there aren't many.;;; Then I became curious about the otome games a few years later when I picked up a PSP and well... Look where I am now. (;-◞౪◟-)
Just to clarify something, it's not an otome game, just an adventure rhythm visual novel.... though it seems to be marketed to a female crowd due to the fanservice and this CG LOL.
So yeah. Bakumatsu Rock anime and game, here I come! ヽ(・ω・ゞ)
hmmm so it also a visual novel ooo .. hmm ive seen a few gifs of it XD mmm maybe ill add it to my list ...but then again just cause on my list dont mean anything nows a days as there if i counted and turn to be 100 i wouldn't be shocked > .> i still have yet to watch free! .... so anyways ... look like manga gamers is going to be the one bringing oz to English and they also bring a BL NO, Thank you!! ...mmm maybe ill buy it http://blog.mangagamer.org/2014/07/03/announcements-from-anime-expo-2014/#csw_links there 2 opening vids for it along with others ... mmm when they were saying stuff for laddys i was thinking more otome games then 1 but i guess the bl counted as it ... i hope there more otome games coming out at anime xpo T_T and gahhh akui posted that bday pic now everyone knows my bday ...o well XD
ReplyDeleteand i been playing this OEL otome game .... and omg this game needs more noise then it has its relay good for a OEL game .. and i most of the time am picky at oels games .... im glad i played it even though the art may not be as good now a days but for its time and what she had to work with plus being free its really good ... i gave a 10 on VND you should play if you haven't you wont regret it ... or put on list XD http://unbrokenhours.com/fe/ that the game Frozen Essence there lots of feels and happy and evil endings ^^ ive played 1 guy so far and already i hope she some days make a sequel ... im so buying her new game it looks relay good too and arts is lot a better i say i love Caius a lot >_> maybe more then ayato now ... oops
LMAO that's exactly how I feel. I already purged some titles from my list, but I'm sure it's still long. XD My drama cd list continues to grow as well. OTL (Which I've mainly reminded myself about on the calendar tab since I don't want a bajillion drama cd banners haha)
DeleteYay Ozmafia has a company! 8'D And lol, I misread that second part the first time. I thought you meant "no thank you!!" like you weren't gonna play a BL game. But then I kept reading that you were gonna buy it, and then I clicked the link to see it was one of their titles LOL. I was wondering when they were gonna show some kissies scenes in that PV ohoho. :> //shot *closet Fujoshi* And hey, I'm a (closet) Fujoshi, so it entertains me~ ;D Idk if I'd buy it but it does sound interesting. ouo Yeah, more otome would /always/ be lovely. ^_^
Hm? Oh. That's right, it has the date on it. XDD Ah well. Nothing too wrong with that. Then people would just know when to wish you happy birthday for next year! \^o^/
What's OEL, original English language? o3o Hmm. I'm kinda eh on the art myself, but looking at the features, that's quite a bit to have. So I may give it a shot sometime. XD
Ohohoho, liking someone more than Ayato? :>
I'd love to create/write/draw my own otome, but I've no clue how to program shiz LOL. (/)u(\)
well its true you could get me to fan girl 10x more over a otome game then a bl game ....but i dont hate boy love ... nor would i go out my way to play them ... but DM look okay so i got the patched verstion of it and no thank you! look like it funny so why not XD It would make No Thank You!!! the first major Japanese BL game getting an official English release since JAST USA’s localization of Enzai and Absolute Obedience back in 2006.
DeleteIT OZ HAS SATOI SO YA WE HAVE TO BUY IT IF WERE FANS OF HER >. > and its a turning point game for otome in the us too for pc ... wish stary sky was but jast found out that oo it be to much for them at the time to bring over .... T_T
yep it means that ....well ya the art is mehish but her new game at the top you see that looks good BUT ITS NOT THE ART ITS THE STORY THHHHHEEEEE STORY XS ...THE FEELS THE DAM FEELS YOU GET TOO i know you love the feels you will get so ya just play for the love of English XD
XD I went through a whole BL phase in middle school. .... We do not speak of those years LOL. Though I still like BL, I just don't go frantic trying to find all the humanly possible BL on the face of the Earth. XD But yeah I can fangirl over otome or BL lmao.
DeleteMm yeah No Thank You looks interesting. Not sure when but I may give it a go someday since it's actually in English rather than just a fan translation. c: I've never played Enzai or Absolute Obedience though haha. And DM? The only BL I can think of with those initials is Dramatical Murder (which is abbreviated DMMd) so uhh... XD *shifty eyes*
Ehe I know. I like Satoi's art so much. 8'D I've noticed that with Ozmafia you either love it or you hate it, but I'll probably still buy it anyway. I'm happy it's on PC too because that means BIGGER TEXT, WHOOHOO! *Usually has to squint on a PSP since I'm blind as a bat* Aww too bad it'd cost too much for Starry Sky. :c Probably because of the cast and if it's a really long game. At least there can always be fan translations~. Now if Rejet magically brought over BWS Bloody Nightmare then amg I'd buy that shit in a heartbeat, no questions asked. And obviously it does well in Japan because fans were asking and asking and asking for them to reprint, and when they did BWS sold out again. XDD (I actually need to finish playing that game sometime *grumble*)
Speaking of Rejet, Akui and I would be so annoyed if we finished translating all the routes for More Blood and then they announce an English release. XDD
*sees all your fangirling* Bwahaha alright, okay. It shall be added to the bucket list.~ ;D
