A little over a month ago, I got so sick I was pretty much house-bound for a little over a week. During that time I decided to use my sickbed time to enjoy a massive anime simpler via the streaming service from Netflix.com. I watched fourteen different anime, but only two episodes (at most) of each. The idea was to get just a sample of a bunch of different shows that had been sitting in my Netflix queue for a while. Afterwards, I would know which ones might be worth seeing more of, and which ones I could forget about. So, after watching these I decided to write what I'm calling a "micro review" for each anime. It's "micro" because the reviews themselves are only going to be a couple of paragraphs each, and they're based on only a small portion of the anime. I'll be posting one of these each Saturday until I've posted all fourteen. So, here is the first one. I hope you enjoy!
Sengoku Basara
Hot-headed samurai guys are fighting over… I’m not really
sure. If there is a story here it doesn’t seem to be very important. I only
watched the first episode of this. The art was pretty decent, but nothing
exceptional. For an action anime, this was very boring.
Content Advisory: Some blood in the action scenes.
Maybe some PG13 language. I don’t really remember because I wasn’t paying that
much attention.
OK, so that first one is very brief and a little disappointing. There will be some better ones, though. I promise! ^_^

I heard of that method before. Used right it really can be helpful on which animes you spend time watching.
I know i've mentioned before that a majority of my anime is from Netflix right now. Having the descriptions really helps as a heads up. Other than that, I would use Anime News Network to find out what I need to know.
As for Sengoku Basara, I have only seen episode 1. I do know that the main characters are actual Samurai, so it supposed to be historical, but I haven't sat down to watch it.

Thanks for the tip on Anime News Network. I'll have to check that out.
I didn't realize that Sengoku Basara was based on historical people. I'm pretty sure no actual samurai ever successfully wielded three katana in each hand, though. ^_^
