we need to spread the word of this show to other people on these forums!
-
i've seen bits and pieces of the show, it's ok but it never really kept my interest though
-
If I could scream as loud as the girls during kendo, I think it could help me score some points… :silly:
-
i personaly think that the show could have been better had they actually TRYED to be serious and actually had some real death going on then it could have been better. like for example when kirinos mom was sent to the hospital from working to hard she should have actually died and then maybe a REALLY good story could have started. you guys know what i mean?
-
Hmmm… Oh Just like how it would be awesome if Tamaki would actually die from an attack during the final tournament and motivate everyone to improve their skills? Yeah. That's a sound idea. Im gonna look forward to Tamaki's death ^^.
-
It's not that kind of story. I'm not sure what you guys are reading or expecting to read in this.
It's a subtly goofy, lackadaisical look at high school kendo from a softer, girls' team perspective.

thats not what i mean. i mean some evil force could show up wanting to destroy the world or something and then have epic battles where Tamaki and her friends fight to save the world. but keep the kendo and comedy stuff to the show already has.

That series is called AirGear. You can ask a few of the old fans how that went.

no i mean the series could have been exactly the way it was until episode 17 or so when kirinos mom would die instead of being tired it could be a henchman who killed her and hes from a secret organzation trying to take over the world or destroy it (dont care witch one) and then tama and her friends fight them in epic battles to the death and there we go. also i want to see tama use a real sword.

I haven't seen the series but from what I know of it. Bamboo Blade doesn't seem to be that kind of series. From the face value and stuff it seems to be a fun show about a guy coaching an all girls kendo team. Nothing more and nothing less. If it tries to be serious as you say it is then it just trying to force something that a majority of the fans don't want from Bamboo Blade.
I mean can you really see these girls doing something as serious as what you are saying? These are simple high school girls learning kendo. You really expect them to take on an organization bent on world domination/destruction? That just sounds a bit out there based on the main plot. The show wasn't meant to be taken seriously really and the people that liked it liked it because it was lighthearted and nice. There are plenty of serious sword-based swords. Heck if you want something that takes a serious turn of events then you have shows like Gurren Lagann (If you want to see it done mostly right) or Air Gear (If you want it to see it go bad).

i know but i want to see a series like bamboo blade start off like this and turn into epic awsomeness. bleach was kinda similer. plus i want to see some awsome tamike action and be like the anime characters she loves so much!
-
by the way a compleate series boxset is being released. heres the cover.
-
Ready to do a review on this show? id like is someone could make one. oh and make sure you note that the ending was freaking TERRIBLE!
-
Hmm, I saw the preview for this on one of my FUNi DVDs and added it to my list to try out. Now I'm trying to avoid watching/reading too many school based series that revolve around the same thing (school life, etc) but this one seems unique enough, and I always have a soft spot for the whole team spirit thing between a team and their teacher.
Since you translated it Stephen, I'd be willing to buy the manga too if I like it enough.

Yeah I know, it's just I can't afford to buy too much at once for a while until I get a move I have to deal with over and done with. It's definitely on my list though.

Well I'll start by buying the anime and then if I like it enough I'll get the manga as well. That's usually how I do it, unless I happen to read the manga first.

Yeah, looks like the series has some good humor in it as well. I'm definitely going to pick it up, but I have other series on my list to deal with first.

Well maybe try putting something about it in your sig to help advertise it. That could help direct people to this thread.
-
Well I order the DVD set based on watching two full episodes on Funi. It came in the mail for me this past Tuesday (10/12). I was able to watch about half of the third episode before moving on to studying. It was still as funny as I remember it was. The show seems really good but has points that make it just a humor based show. I can't wait to watch the rest of it when I get the chance.

I mean write something advertising this thread the the series in your signature, and perhaps provide links for clips and whatnot. Some people who are bored may see it while posting and try it out.

Your signature is located underneath your posts in the forum. You can add material in it by accessing your control panel. (Top left, "user cp")
And yeah, don't go randomly posting it like in the Bleach thread or the mods will get mad. Luckily no one cares about the Bleach thread, lol.
