The show bounces back and forth between characters, their powers and stories and doesn’t allow for anything to really sink in.Īlso, the animation quality of the first two episodes was passable at best. While this sounds like the correct way to introduce a show… and it is… it’s executed all wrong. They are trying to mix backstory along with character introductions along with character development along with world building. This show’s pacing is absolutely terrible.
While I get that, it’s the only part of the show I fully get right now. Did the second season meet expectations?Īfter the events of the first Basilisk, the Kouga and Iga clans are living peacefully together, although there is still some obvious disdain there between the two clans. Although I don’t remember much of the first season, I saw that the sequel took place ten years after the first so I figured it was okay to jump in. It was one of the first shows, along with Ninja Scroll, that I watched when I first got into anime. As ninjas begin to disappear into the shadows after being deemed unnecessary, the Kouga and Iga clans ask a favor of Hachirou and Hibiki in hopes of reinforcing their foundations.It has been 11 years since the first season of Basilisk aired and it has been about 9 years since I’ve watched it. It is now the Kan'ei era, and the land is at peace. The former had eyes like his father's and the latter had eyes like her mother's. These children, born with a destiny of their own, were called Kouga Hachirou and Iga Hibiki. However, it is said that by the hand of Hattori Hanzo's adopted son, Kyouhachirou, these two flower petals, whether temporarily or permanently, were given life again and left two mementos behind. Amidst a rain of flower petals, a man and woman who had decided to live for love were separated once again, beautiful in their transience. The battle for succession that continued for three generations of shogun in the Keichou era culminated in a gruesome battle of ninja arts between the Kouga and Iga clans.
