I'm really loving this anime. Now that all the 'introductions' to the characters are done, I think things are really going to start happening.

Yeah, I love all the characters, my favorites being Narsus and Farangis right now. I'm also liking Gieve and Arslan quite a lot.

I think it is interesting that each of the members is evenly trained in their sword, archery, and martial arts skills. That might be a rather obvious comment of me, but usually in a series every group member is limited to one specific skill; however, here in Arslan all the members seem to be experts in all various kinds of skills.

Another great episode of Arslan Senki. It's one of the few series I'm actively looking forward to in this rather meak anime spring season.

So, when you pair up a genius strategist with inept painting skills and a frightening fighter whose name alone makes people think that embodiment of hulk is standing before them, what do you get? That's right: Narsus and Daryun. Seriously, I need more duo scenes of these two >_<

The sword fighting scenes are really well executed in my eyes if you ask me. And respect to Silvermask holding up with them while fighting them simultaneously :wot: Of course, Lord Zuko himself implanted on Silvermask that scar (even if it is on the right side).

So that fateful reunion finally happened b/w Arslan and Etoille. It's funny how that Lusitania boy still has no idea who that "spoiled rich kid" standing before him is XD I'm interested in that little booklet that Etoille handed over to Arslan b/c it's time for the audience to get a little glimpse into the beliefs of the Lusitanien.

Oh btw! That Lusitanien king: Keep trying. Hope the Queen Tahamenay gives him the cold shoulder as long as possible. And the Archbishop deserves to die.

I think I might be starting to ship Gieve and Farangis, I just love their interactions. Oh, and Daryun is totally Arslan's mother. :lol:

I shipped them already, lol XD Dude, when Farangis put her leg out of the window and almost kicked down Gieve, I almost died XD

Daryun's face when he realized that Arslan could have fallen XD I wonder what will happen in the future... Pretty sure that no matter what, he'll remain faithful with Arslan.

Ugh, the animation could be better tbh.

Anyways, Arslan slowly winning the trust of his new members is endearing to watch. Gieve showing loyalty by sacrificing his valuable gold coins, and Elam going all Tsundere after Arslan said that ranks don't matter to be friends :chuckle:
Huh, didn't know that Arslan was in a school outside of his home... Why did he live outside in the first place anyways?

Yeah, the animation could use improvement for sure, there are parts that really bug me.

 

As for Arslan growing up outside the palace, it's been pretty strongly hinted at that Arslan is not actually the king's son (forgot how to spell his name), so that might have something to do with it?

Yeah, good point. He definitely is his mother's son, but it still makes me wonder why Andragoras would adopt him...

I kind of forgot there was a thread for this. :argh: I've been keeping up with it, though I haven't had a chance to watch the newest ep yet. The recent arc wasn't bad or anything, but for some reason I found it a bit boring, hopefully it's going to start picking up.
