i tried watching this anime out of no where really...i just decided to watch this because the characters seemed gorgeous :D STORY 6/10 :okay..i agree....the story is not that impressive...but its not that you will not enjoy it at all...there are alot of jokes and fights there for you to watch there are a bunch of guys who fight against the big bad boss of japan :D thats all really :))) ART 10/10: art is really perfect...specially the three main characters Shinsaku Takasugi and Ryouma Sakamoto and Kogorou Katsura...other characters are really well animated too. SOUND 9/10:actually i loved the soundtracks...op and ed both perfect *~* CHARACTER 8/10: Shinsaku Takasugi:a charmingguy with a lot of energy and spirit to save the japan from the big bad boss...he acts recklessly all the time and thats what is interesting about him.

Kogorou Katsura:Shinsaku Takasugi's best friend...he is the cautious one...the smart one which thinks and acts :D but he always gets himself into the same troubles with Shinsaku Takasugi :))))

Ryouma Sakamoto: Shinsaku Takasugi's other friend who pursue this dream of a happy exciting country to build :D

others are just pretty characters running around them really :D :D

ENJOYMENT 7/10: i'm not gonna lie it was so boring for me to watch at first but i got used to the story and characters so it became enjoyable for me :D

OVERALL 7/10: so if you like pretty anime boys fight with swords and running around doing some crazy stuff to defeat the big bad boss of japan this anime is gonna be a good one for you :D
