| Summary: |
Akitsu Masanosuke is a timid ronin on his way to Edo from the countryside when he accidentally encounters a playboy named Yaichi, who asks him to be his bodyguard. But it turns out that Yaichi is actually the leader of a group of bandits called the "Five Leaves," and he's hoping that Masanosuke will join them. Masanosuke is reluctant to help them, but as grows closer to his eccentric new companions, he learns to relate to them and grow as a person in the process. |

I started watching this because I am a fan of Edo period animes, and having watched some such as Rurouni Kenshin, Peacemaker Kurogane, Samurai Champloo, Samurai 7, ext., I welcomed this with an open mind, and it was well appreciated. They open with an oddly modern techno-ish opening, which goes beautifully with the opening theme song, and then it takes you into this plot that couldn't have been imagined easily.
This is an anime that doesn't center around the main character. It has set main characters, but it also heavily looks into the back-stories of side-characters as well. The animation is strange, but not bad, and it really grew on me, and before I knew it, I was hanging off every word and looking at every detail.
It's a beautiful, albeit slow-moving anime, but it is very good and a must watch for any samurai-fan.
