Two decent shows in a row? What are the chances!?

 

Brave 10 starts out like any typical fuedal era anime. Shit's on fire and there's ninjas killin' and doing what ninjas do. 

Jump forward, Saizo is a wandering ninja/warrior/dude with a bigass sword who ends up helping this Nami chick where she's going, but that's easier said than done because these other ninjas show up and OMG NINJA FIGHT TIME WITH MAGIC NINJA WEAPONS.

 

The fight scenes are well done, and there's a few characters thrown in with just enough letting you know there's going to be a wide cast of characters (aparently, the castle lord wants to collect 10 brave warriors, hence the name) and we see a lot of them in the opening credits. Art is well done, especially considering this is an unknown studio, and the pacing seems pretty good. 

We'll be keeping an eye on this one.
