In case you’re unfamiliar, Sengoku Basara is a Playstation 2 fighting game by Capcom. I’ll have to say… it is an awesome stress-reliever. One of the fun things about this game are the imaginative weapons the characters use. View the game trailer! You can also hear the voices of the seiyuus, including Koyasu Takehito 子安武人, Hayami Sho 速水 奨, Paku Romi 朴 璐美, etc

And guess what? Come April 2009, there’s going to be a Sengoku Basara anime XD The story is loosely set in the warring era in Japan, so we can expect lots of battles and action.
Definitely something to look forward to ^^ And for seiyuu-fangirls, you’ll be happy to know that the lead characters will be voiced by Nakai Kazuya 中井和哉, Morikawa Toshiyuki 森川智之, Hoshi Souichirou 保志総ー朗 and Wakamoto Norio 若本規夫 The animation for the promotional video looks great. Character designs of the bishis are yummy. Hopefully the quality is maintained for the whole series.

Basara~!<3
Wah i havn’t seen the previews yet. I’ve been looking forward to this for while i can’t wait till it comes out.*A*
Thank you for posting~
Cute. despite not a fan this set is has caught my attention.
hayami Sho hhmmm..muraki kazutaka?
@fuuga: You going to pre-order them?
@fuuga: yeah, thanks to the game’s super popularity, we’re getting an anime! XD
@akiyama: Yep, he voices Akechi Mitsuhide in the game but the current confirmed cast list for the anime doesn’t have his character listed yet. Let’s wait till more information is available ^^ I’ve already pre-ordered these chibis *_* ~$~
As for me..i’ll hold up myself until i’m able to scrap some $
The set won’t be as annoying as the indiana jones, right? we won’t be left with two extras. (i got two Mutt and Mola Ram)
Ponytale! You made my day! I’ve no idea what this game is but the set sure is eye catching! Cute!! I wait for the anime to come… the seiyuu cast is too hard for me to resist!!!
@akiyama: yep, we get all 10 different characters/designs this time! XD Apparently each chibi was sculpted by different sculptors *_* no wonder they’re so expensive to make.
@imbeleth: I’m looking forward to it too XD Warring states = men heaven! oops *blush*
Have you seen the anime yet? *w*
Yes =_= the action was good but Sanada Yukimura’s character was quite idiotic lol~ But no matter, I was watching out more for Nakai Kazuya’s Date Masamune. I’ll watch a few more episodes and see how it goes. It has potential tho’.
I’m so lost as to were this anime is going but i love hearing dante say “are you ready?” in english….k-kwaiii~~~!!!;;;
Yukimura…i feel so bad for him! Hes always getting smacked around by his sensei! Its funny though. I think his idiotic-ness is good in a way. The humor in this series is good because i was expecting it to be a serious anime.XD
Yeah, I love his voice too! XD And he looks like he’s riding a motor bike with handles on his house. Kekeke…
As for Yukimura, oh welly~ I’m starting to get more used to him being smacked around and his overly passionate declarations of admiration and loyalty towards his Lord ^^;;; He is a cute idiot? Hahaha… Funny to hear the recent episode saying that Yukimura has fallen for Date and vice versa lol~
