Sengoku Basara – 08: RIP FujiKei ;_;

rip-fujikei
RIP Matsunaga
DAMMIT FUJIKEI CHARACTERS, QUIT DYING! (╬ ಠ益ಠ)

Picking off from where the last episode ended, Kojuurou faces off against Matsunaga’s 3 lackey’s. However, Matsunaga has spread a poison incense around the premise that Kojuurou inhales. He manages to defeat the 3 of them regardlessly, then goes to confront Matsunaga who has Date’s three kidnapped retainers tied to poles behind him. Yukimura shows up and presents Matsunaga with an offering from OYAKATASAMA (a heirloom of the Takeda household) to trade with Matsunaga. In reality this is a distraction while Sasuke sneaks around behind Matsunaga, hoping to free Hair Guy, Glasses Guy, and Fat Guy. Matsunaga seemingly senses Sasuke behind him and he uses a fabulous finger snap to blow everything up.

huuuughessss
Speaking of FujiKei characters dying… 。・゚・(ノД`)・゚・。

After, Kojuurou and Yukimura take on Matsunaga and his multiple waves of bomber enemies. (I hate having to kill these guys on a non-ranged character in the game. Seriously 90% of the reason why I like using Nouhime is because she’s long ranged. Oh, and her gatling skill is even longer ranged.) Sasuke reveals himself to have survived the earlier finger snap-triggered explosion and spreads an antidote bomb so that the poison incense will be neutralized. Kojuurou unleashes his Basara attack and blasts Matsunaga into a statue. Matsunaga opts to blow himself up as a finisher. As Kojuurou and Yukimura watch the flames, a figure appears in them. At first they think Matsunaga survived, but it turns into three figures. Hair Guy, Glasses Guy and Fat Guy all survived the finger snap explosion as well. A happy ending for our heroes.

Personally, I enjoyed this 2 episode FujiKei break! In the next episode, Shimazu Yoshimoto will be making an appearance and Nobunaga’s retainers attack. Is Basara really only going to be 12-13 episodes? Seems kind of tight that they’re somehow going to do Shimazu, Mouri, Chousokabe plus whatever they’re doing with Nobunaga/Akechi/Oichi in next few episodes too. And Fuuma mysteriously disappeared after Shingen threw him into a building, he might be comin’ back. Might as well throw in Toyotomi and Hanbei too~

  1. sasuke just had the right antidote to the poison used, setup in a bomb eh? epic.

    HUGHES!!!!!!!

  2. Hell yeah, finger snapping explosions and lightning blades.
    Agreed, 12-13 episodes seems rather tight hopefully if anything it’ll be 25-26 episodes.

  3. >Is Basara really only going to be 12-13 episodes?

    yeah, unfortunately. And it looks like the 13th episode will be included in the last DVD (release date: 6th January 2010, duh).

    Who knows, sometimes Production IG makes a sequel, even to the not so popular series. But I’m pretty sure Basara will do great in the box office charts anyway. We’ll see.

    And FujiKei’s chara was talking so freaking much that it started to be annoying so I’m glad he’s dead. Kojuurou > Matsunaga. There, I said it.

  4. It’s Shimazu Yoshihiro. Yoshimoto is Imagawa…
