There's no question that this show doesn't ever manage to provide enough characterization to make the entire show entirely successful from start to finish. The big issue with the show is that even in the second season, after the mixed-results found within the first outing Sengoku Basara still represents a style over substance approach despite dealing with historical issues. The shows stylized uniquely and it will appeal to anyone hoping to experience a colorful animated epic. Backgrounds are not perfectly developed, but there's great texture with bold colors and interesting designs that this isn't a detriment. The animation is sleek and sophisticated. The best thing about Sengoku Basara remains consistent throughout both the first and second seasons: incredible visuals and undeniably high production values throughout.

In other words, the series has the characters ask an overarching question of "what am I fighting for"? It leads to some fascinating philosophical ponderings, in theory at least, even if the series attempts at expansion in depth aren't ever fully realized. The samurai warriors in Sengoku Basara are faced with learning to understand the reasons behind the samurai codes and what the purpose is of being a warrior. The end-result is utter chaos in a war-zone filled with many casualties. Many are fighting for peace in the waging battles. The basic setup of Sengoku Basara features opposing samurai-warriors on different sidelines of war with various group attempts to overthrow the others. The series doesn't change drastically but it does make enough attempts towards refining the storytelling that the overall experience is decently improved in the second-half of the first two season outings, which are both collected here with this Season 1 and Season 2 Blu-ray/DVD Combo pack release. This element rang true regarding the first season of Sengoku Basara but isn't necessarily the end result of the second season outing entirely.
Most viewers aren't going to tune in expecting to find mind-boggling poetry. If that instantly brings to mind a series that focuses more on creating "intense" action sequences over telling an absorbing story then that's probably because this is the general indication of what it means to bring video game characters into other artistic forms. Sengoku Basara is an anime adaptation of a video game.
