A Fitting Conclusion to a great series
Like most good series, I was sad to see this series end. It had a great deal of integrity, with each character being highly individualized. Unlike most series that have large amounts of violance, the usage of less notable characters as battle fodder is greatly reduced, with each death being final and complete, making you almost wish the series would bring the characters back, you love or hate them that much. But thankfully the series doesn't, which allows it to keep up the atmosphere that you never know who goes next. The series' end is tragic and heartfelt, making you feel that it is both sad but necessary. A truly great series, I would recommend it to anyone with even a passing interest in Anime or Ninja.
An awesome series
Basilisk takes place in 1614 during the Tokugawa Shogunate era. Two ninja clans are at war with each other competing to win the favor of the regime for the next 1000 years. Each clan has to choose 10 members. Whichever clan kills the 10 members of their rival wins.
There are a lot of awesome things to say about this anime. The animation, the music, and the story line are all great. Almost all , of the characters are too. There are a few ninjas I didn't like though. One guy kills you with his hair, one guy is a quadriplegic that kills you with a knife that he holds with his tongue, and one dude turns into goo when he touches salt. Most of the other ninjas are awesome though. The bad guy is really a heartless bastard. It makes it very interesting when you have a bad guy that is way evil. The characters really keep you interested and the carnage never lets up.
I really think anyone that likes anime would get a kick outta this one. If you like it there's a live...
The End
Great endind to a great story. Go back and get them all. If your into ninja's,swordfighting, and cool special powers for the characters, this is your cup of tea.
